That's right folks! The 5 P's Clearly explain the mediocrity of West Indies players and West Indies cricket.





* There is only one player in the current West Indies team who is dead serious about his preparation and practices perfectly.

* That player has played in 153 tests---he has scored 11,219 runs at an average of 51.93 with 29 100s and 62 50s.

* He has also scored 8878 runs in onedayers at an average of 41.60 with 11 100s and 59 50s.

* But he has been discarded from the WI oneday team and the nasty stinking coach and selectors are dying to drop him from the test team.

* You're right!

* I just hope Shiv maintains his high standard and keeps playing another 5 years.

* WI fans like Ramesh who are mediocre in their own lives and root for mediocrity---they will remain mentally tortured by the great man.

* Shiv must not retire until he overtakes Sachin or is firmly ensconced in the #2 position in terms of runs scored in tests.

can  easily also apply to the originator of this thread as it makes no sense
He strung 5P's together without rhyme  or reason

I think it is a good principle to live by as a Sportsman.

BUT if you like Mediocrity , do NOT subscribe to the 5Ps....

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."		(13.09.2025, 10:58)(10:58)0

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
