Congratulations to Jamaica for wrapping up the regional triple: The ODI competition in October last year, the Carib Beer Series and the Carib Beer Challenge, soundly beating Trinidad and Tobago in the process. Only a similarly sound beating inflicted by Trinidad in the Stanford2020 final prevented Jamaica from sweeping all the regional senior level competitions.
Thanks to powen001 for the video.
For years, the West Indies Cricket Board has pointed its finger of blame at its players for the continued decline of the team's fortunes. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that the Board's actions have been a farcical attempt to further its power and take advantage of its employees.
