Interestingly enough, Chris Gayle is the only 40 ave West Indian to directly benefit from exposure at test level who then went on to be a T20 success - earn good remuneration - since the advent of these global T20 cricket leagues - circa 2004 .BWICBC sycophants continue to claim it's the players exploits in maroon that have earned almost 15 of them contracts to play in T20 leagues around the globe
And look how badly BWICBC mismanaged that asset Since the advent of international T20 leagues, 2003 - present, Dwayne Smith, Darren Bravo and Darren Sammy have also played international T20 off the back of BWI test cricket, but none of that trio qualify as successful test cricketers '.
2003: Devon Smith
2004: Dwayne Smith, Dwayne Bravo, Sylvester Joseph
2005: Narsingh Deonarine, Donovan Pagon, Xavier Marshall, Runako Morton, Ryan Ramdass
2007: Darren Sammy
2008: Brenton Parchment, Sewanarine Chatergoon, Brendan Nash
2009: Lendl Simmons, Travis Dowlin, Omar Phillips, Dale Richards, Adrian Barath
2010: Darren Bravo
2011: Kraigg Braithwaite, Kirk Edwards, Keiran Powell
2012: Asad Fudadin
2014: Leon Johnson, Jermaine Blackwood**
2015: Shai Hope, Shane Dowrich, Rajinder Chandrika
.none of that trio qualify as successful test cricketers '
Which all means the BWICBC BL's actual inference is these players failed internationally and that's why they earned lucrative T20 contracts I hope this helps to clear up that particular piece of frequently regurgitated bile
Furthermore, on the subject of asset management - of the 24 debutantes selected in the last 10 years at least 7 have been engaged in some level or another of conflict resolution with the BWICBC - that equates to a 30% disagreability rating among it's contractors.
