The West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) has been ineffective in dealing with it, stymied by the compliant attitude of some of its individual member boards, and successive managers and coaches have found themselves made the scapegoats. Hoad spoke of a general indifference, of a lack of respect for former players and for sponsors, of low fitness levels and of an aversion to hard and proper practice.
His strictures might be dismissed as those of a man embittered by what Skerritt claimed was his dismissal, except that they are not new. Every one rings a familiar bell.
Coach after coach has complained of the same frustration in recent times as the team has suffered one humiliating defeat after another.
The late Malcolm Marshall was the first to sound the warning horn as far back as 1992 when he announced his retirement following the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
Everything seems to be doing down the drain, Marshall said. There is no respect, no manners.

West Indies cricket is dead, dead, dead. We are seeing the "painful" end.

It really is time to disband the WICB and let each member territory find its own way.

Coz hit the spot in 2001

Look at the individual territories in current 4 day Regionals

and 50 over Format ...

That FEEDS the W.I XI 

West Indies cricket has been dead since the late 90s. I think the time has come for the West Indies cricket team be disbanded and the regional countries who are interested in cricket, get associate status and try to make their way to full status on their own.
