Let us be honest here! The arguments will continue forever. Everyone will always have an opinion, others will even have several opinions, none coinciding with the other, as to whom should comprise the West Indies All-Time XI. Even though the West Indies cricket team has been active only since 1928, so many good, especially excellent, cricketers have been produced, that it is an absolutely shame that many cannot even be considered at all. However, the overall exercise is great fun! We have all noted the cricket Web site Cricinfo’s West Indies All-Time XI. I doubt that anyone, including each judge on that panel, even agreed with himself, much less to agree with one another, as to the personnel to be included thus.
Cricinfo’s WI All-Time XI reads:
Gordon Greenidge (Barbados), Conrad Hunte (Barbados), George Headley (Jamaica), Vivian Richards (Leeward Islands), Brian Lara (Trinidad & Tobago), Garfield Sobers (Barbados), Malcolm Marshall (Barbados), Jackie Hendricks (Jamaica), Michael Holding (Jamaica), Curtley Ambrose (Leeward Islands) and Lancelot Gibbs (Guyana). That is a very good, perhaps even great, combination.
