West indies cricket was No.1 and is in ground discipline and respect and love for the game to my knowledge for the last 50 years. now we hear new things.It may be due to Poverty and under payment to cricketers.

He should have been banned for life but the Anti Corruption System is very poorly worth worrying about because the board itself is also corrupt. They seems only to punish the weak and poor countries who are powerless to fight them on their members behalf....THE WEAK AND THE FRAIL WILL ALWAYS SUFFER THROUGH A BULLY REGIME!!!!
