I see New Zealand did not tell the ECB to go to hell

That would be a severly weakend kiwi team because I'm sure most of them would choose IPL over country just like the WI players.

Based on their output in the juss concluded IPL...They will be lucky to have 1 or 2 players in next IPL!!!

[DMan]

True while WI will increase the number of West Indians in the IPL next year considering the huge impact our players made this year. WICB better not schedule any matches around that time.

I agree...our players performances will only help others...

They need to SUCK IT UP.

yuh read like an old time 'fire and brimstone' preacher who teaches that hell mus' not be avoided and the pleasures of the flesh are sinful.

wat wudda make dem fellas an dem happy is if humans were made of bone alone, so rudeness involved rubbing calcium together, denuding such acts of all fleshy fun

cold is hell...not somethng to play with. cold is quite unlike heat.... sunshine and warmth are easy to acclimatise to and provides significant nutritional benefits for the body..and soul.

in the warmth, no fingers get numb, joints stiff, head aches and wants to split from the atmostpheric pressure of cold, thick cloudy days, nose running, allergies from freshly cut, lush grass... and budding trees and blossoms all over the place.

cold increases the longer you are in and not moving. it penetrates and swallows all in its way, soaks through to the bone. if you are in the cold keep moving and you last. if you do not move you will be subsumed in a while.

cold is no fun at all man. there is no 'sucking it up' unless you are adapted to the thing. and only for so long..even for the adapted. even the english were complaing bitterly this year about the early start to the season, for the very same cold reasons and the mockery of playing conditions it made for.

start westindies tours in mid may. there would be 2-3 weeks of dealing with the crap in minor matches. starting the tests by the first week of juns makes sense for everybody. but there will still be the need to 'suck it up' for although the weather generally warms up in june, there can still be brutal cold spells in the summer as well .

but although that is the case we dont have to invite disaster by agreeing to play when man and beast should be bundled-up and inside, near heating vents and fireplaces

cold is not somethng to play with. it is quite unlike heat, sunshine and warth which is easy to accmatise to and provides significan benefits to the body.

The only time the English enjoy the heat is when they are lying on a beach doing nothing!!

When fellas have to run in and bowl fast they do not enjoy it.

Or when batting for long periods is necessary - just ask Dean Jones about the double hundred he made in India in the mid eighties!!

yu know ..you are not a serious fella you know! who told or taught you that!

is that why the english who can afford it migrating back to the westindies?

is that why Canadian 'snow birds' migrate en masse' to Florida in retirement?

is that why the english flock to spain and the south of france and italy?

is that why the english, South African, Kenyan and 'Rhodesians' whites, fought to the death for that particular area of africa?

do you know why?

You know maps you does go through a huge range of emotions in your posts.

Mr mapoui is crazy and he don't know the English.

If you are in England the English will complain all day long about the weather but I can guarantee you that the majority will not swap what they have for the weather in Madras!!

Obviously there are a few who love the Caribbean weather but as I said they are not running around bowling at 90mph all day long!!

what the hell yu 2 guys going orn about...2 ignoramuses and impses....

yuh guys have real probolems reasoning things out..obvious things!

the english are cold adapted..white people are. blac people are not. black people have greater difficulty playing in the cold than white people have playing in the heat. {it physically easier adapting to the cold that it is to the heat.}

{the sentence contained in brackets is wrong! my intent is the other way around...it is easi, even healthful, adapting to the heat than it is to the cold.}

human physiology...all varieties of it... benefit from the the heat of the sun.

those who are cold adapted are able to systhesize adequate or almost adequate, essential vitamn D from the avaliable sunlight in cold climtates. thats the whole point about cold adaption.

where there are shortages of sunligh, D supplements were made availble from fish oil..Cod Liver Oils... now in capsule. and now there are synthesized D supplements available. there are many white deseases that stem from D shortages like rickets and' osteoparosis'

bladc people because of dark skin are always short of Vitamin D..those who live in the cold. it is a severe situation espcially as we age and the body gradually loses ability to sysnthesize D from sunlight. which is why high chjolesterol is important for people over 60.

Vitamin D is synthesized directly from cholesterol by interaction with the sun. the more cholesterol an older person has and the more exposure to the sunshine of summmer they allow themselve, the better it is for them. in the winter supplements are totally essential or serious desease can develos quickly

when white people are again in the sun, they tan and benefit from the heat like everybody else save those white pople who are Tyr (Tyrosinase) negative....the redheads of white skin who do not have melanin and cannot tan. they face the skin cancer danger

white people love termperate zones. they can live there for they adapted there from the blac african aurignacian pigmy types. but they live for their summers which are short and sweet all te same. they love the sunlight but can live in the cold. they have a lifestyle, A CULTURE DEVELOPED IN THE COLD.

there are people who live in the cold with little sunlight. the secret of their survival is vitamin D rich fish. that is the case with the Laplanders and eskimos some of whom are very, very dark of skin.

I have seen english fast bowlers come to the westindies, acclimatise and take tons of wckets...John Snow, David Brown, Truman etc. England batsmen likewise. england has won test matches all over the world including Mardas. Indeed all over India. there was a time when India could beat england nowhere in the world. Pakistan too.

england could never beat westindies in the westindies. I believe they did it 3 times..in 1960 and 1968, under Lara..wast 2005 or something.

ALLUH KERRYING ORN AS IF WE DEALING WITH TWO DIFFERENT SPECIES HERE..ONE FROM MARS AND ONE FOR SATURN.

ITS THE SAME FREAKIN HUMAN SPECIES, BORN IN AFRICA AND MOVED OUT ALL OVER THE WORLD AND CHANGED INTO THE COLOR/CULTURAL MATRIX WE NOW HAVE.


THE HUMAN SPECIES IS BIOLOGICAL AND CHANGEABLE, ADAPTABLE TO THE CONDITIONS OF EXISTENCE. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NUTTEN WRITTEN IN STONE ABOUT THE HUMAN SPECIES.

THAT IS WHY THEY TALK ABOUT ADAPTATION..WHITES COLD ADAPTED, BLACKS HEAT ADAPTED..ADAPTED..CHANGED FROM ONE INTO SOMETHING ELSE..AND CAN PROLLY CHANGE BACK WITH A REVERSE OF THE CONDITIONS.

I have no idea what the hell Amicky goes orn about. its hard to understand thAT man. and it seemS hard for him to make sense of human material reality on the ground and how it came to be the WAY IT IS.

and Dman!? I doh know really......

[mapoui]

also..WHERE CRICKET IS PLAYED IN AUSTRALIA IS OFTEN HOTTER THAN MADRAS..STIFFLINGLY HOT. AND IN THOSE CONDITIONS ENGLISH PACE JUST A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO ROUTED THE OZ.

over the decades english pace often had its way with the Oz...IN AUSTRALIA

similarly in south africa...there can get seriously hot too.

so what is this supposed ENGLSIH INFIRMITY WITH BOWLING PACE IN HOT CLIMES

i dont see where in the history of the game that is born out by the facts
