BWICBC cricket teams have won many titles, in the past. Its highly unlikely that a mens team representing CWI will ever win a single thing from this day on. International cricket has already passed them bye bye, with both Ireland and Afghanistan likely to follow.
CWI have run at a financial surplus since this unendorsed rebrand but results on the field have remained stagnant. The scores, coverage and spectator numbers for the PCL and Super 50 comps suggest the source of ths negative spiral.
Whats left is a few remaning spectators who seek victories on the field while Windies administrators prioritize finance off it, somethings got to give.....
Time to go it alone...

Perhaps the seniors who lost 60% of their international payments because of pYbuS' historic document were being spitful and reduced their performance by 60% in retaliation, and thats the reason CWI are losing....... and as soon as their removed from the team and replaced with youngsters...er, no wait 
Further, the one and two titles they did win in the last few years were founded on that same group of players that, almost to a man, were run out of BWICB* cricket.

LOL "the WICB had nothing to do with the FOUR WORLD CUPS WON SINCE 2012"? 
Yeah, OK GIRLS, keep fooling yourself with that nonsense!! 
It's no surprise you hold such opinions as we all know you and your boyfriend Mike are from ENGLAND, so your loyalties lie to your holiday home (Jamaica), than to the region as a whole. And such a mindset is simply bad mindedness.

....It should also be noted that during this apparent time of financial profit that NO significant sponsors have aligned themselves to this toxic brand.
Another sure sign that ICC subsidy ,theft of the seniors money and a favorable fixture list, is all that keeps them from falling once again into deficit.

Only a fool would suggest to you that Bajan cricket, for example, has the same cultural or social impact to Bajans as Guyanese cricket does for Guyanese, or that you can simply transpose the operations of one of these regional boards directly to the other without performance suffering from some type of miscommunication, infringment of local customs and or history.

The Carribean never suffers snow fall, none of any significance at least. So the achievements of Jazmine Fanlator, Carrie Russell and Audra Segree should be recognised as exceptional, even in context of Jamaicas unfolding legacy over the last 30 years of Winter Olympic sports. #Ladiesfirst.
If you listen to many british west indians modestly expecting a top ten finish among so many 1st world nations is not a realistic goal in any sphere of sporting endeavour outside of BWI cricket, (inclusive with the direction of a self elected and non tax paying gang of privateers) so for Jamaica to do this so often will probably be greeted with the most resentful tones by said soup drinkers and benefit adventurers.
The reality remains the same, which is Jamaican culture and West Indian culture is not the same, no matter how much they overlook the unique conditions that go to make up every individual culture on the planet.

Cricket is an international game (or that’s what we are told at least) your out dated belief system is showing smallie.
, that’s one for the future, so I’ll wait……..
As of today the best and most sought after players - Russell, Narine, Pollard and Bravo’s preference is for PSL, they want no part of bwicbc cricket. From this we might deduce these four private contractors have already allowed bwicbc to go about their business, alone.
PSL 1 Bwicbc 0 :
The continued rise in T20 and franchise cricket has rendered icc unable to make special accomodation for the needs of its favoured private entity. With every private company that sets up a league and attracts the best talent to it during the international calender its priviledges diminish further still.
Without this historical insulation from the icc's colonial outreach dept Bwicbc's business model has turned to that of letting agent to the very same private companies who can tempt the best Caribbean players out of their clutches. In a sense maybe they will have their cake and eat it too, but being the only private company allowed a team in international competition they are in no position to speak on unfavorable circumstance's.
I could argue the icc have already extended themselves to the limit by keeping them liquid by way of bail out and subsidy, while also enabling a private company onto the international stage but I prefer to leave you a simple question, CPL have no mandate to produce players for T20 cricket so where will the 10% come from after Russell, Narine, Pollard and Bravo
Lastly, Carry come influence and authority does not extend to any of bwicbc's functions. The last 10 years of politricking between the two should have confirmed this to even one as cognitively handicapped as yourself. So in conclussion lol, your outdated ideolody and maladjusted methodolgy seems to have left you cast out onto the open sea with nothing more than a plastic dingy and a rusty bucket. #rally

How about the Olympic committee….THE ICC AND CARICOM WILL NOT ALLOW THE WINDIES TO "GO IT ALONE",

Many disparities were put into perspective for me this morning while celebrating the Jamaican womens bobsled teams 19th place finish at the Winter Olypmics.
The standard of professionalism between http://www.jamaicaolympics.com/archives/14478" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" . and http://cricketwestindies.org" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" is tremendous but the reception to these victorys within international news media cycles will be on a different scale.
Objectively Windwards Islands have finished first among 8 teams, Jamaica 19th out of the whole planet. In context, the devastaion wrecked on that part of the region means their success should be considered as feat of near excellence, truly amazing In deed.
Of late the nation of Antigua has extended itself in the service of bwicbc cricket but due to the absence of live spectators at bwicbc headquaters for the Super 50 final, as well as regional spectators continued non appearance at all other bwicbc events for almost two decades, should we now conlude that real British West Indians have turned their back on the region
I personally wouldnt employ that simple method of reasoning but that has been the dUnce's exact stated line of thought in regards to all those in the diaspora, ironically as bwicbc outsources more and more of its operation both to foriegn personel and to foreign shores - as any true buccaneer would.
The issue of questionable bowling technique being effectively condoned in regional competition could be raised as it has obvious implications but I honestly bear no grudge and willingly applaude all regional athletes for their success' and accomplishments and wish them all a prosperous future, equally......
