Dwindling spectator interest

Cricket no longer seems to catch the fancy of the public in the Carribean and the result is showing. Even English cricket is facing the same issue.

Face it, cricket is a dying game except in Asia.

kim"s observations are totally un realistic.wi is the only country which produced most predictable fast bowlers in the world.most fear some bowlers in the world.country has gifted greats like sir.sobers.sir.Richards and many great cricketers.How can you we axe such a great country from cricket.Axe is not the correct word to be used in this context.what Mr. kim knows about wi.wi is poor nation,there percapita in come is very low. Their circket board is also very poor.They could not develope cricket in their country.Many potential players are switching over to other games and sports.Unlike Australia and Indian cricket boards.With limited resources i think they are playing well.They will give fitting display in the next test match.
What will happen to cricket if we axe wi,zimbabay,Bangladesh, only six countries will be playing cricket in the world.Cricker will loose importance,people will not value crickerers.Many potential cricketers will search and opt new games.WE can not expect any new innovations in cricket.
wi sould produce many great crickets in feature.All cricket boards should help wi cricket board and help upcomming cricketers in that country by way of monitery benifits and scholarsips.
long leave wi cricket.
Mr .Bolt is a wonderful example,Ten years back no one in the universe thought or dreamt that wi will produce this great sportsmen.Now he is the hero in this universe.
Wait and watch wi will produce greats even feature.
Don't conclude wi"s feature.

Teams all over have helped WI enough. They had a world cup played there too which has netted them millions. They dont really lack talent in batting or bowling but professionalism. The past teams which dominated had very good fielders something thats been a problem with Windies for 2 decades now. Realistically I dont see WIndies improving from here in the next few years. Talent keeps cropping up but the system to nuture it does not exist.

see the main problem of west indies cricket is the popularity of other sports there....now they r very good in football and athletics....so I dont think young people there will take the rich sport cricket rather than those sports...

yes,hughes is overreacting...but 1 thing for sure,gayle should be sacked from captaincy if he plays test cricket....a captain who hate test cricket should not be even in a test team

Banning WI from Test??
by PS on Dec 01, 2009 08:23 PM

But why?
Even Sri Lanka was going through this stage 10-12 years back before winning world cup in 1996.
Also India faced this situation between 1994-2002 when our team hardly used to win any test match on foreign soil(Even we drawed the test series 1-1 against Zimbabwe).

So why this guy Hughes is having problem with Windies team.
This team is going through bad patch agreed
But West-Indies cricket board is building their team by giving chance to young and inexperienced players,so this has to happen.
Windies team will bounce back,it is sure.

It is habit of Australian and English cricketers to demoralize other teams.So no need to pay attention towards them
