Windies will never be a force in world cricket again. Sadly their hosts has no money and all their most talented players chase the dollars in T20 leagues.

Awesome moment for Kyle Mayers though. What a performance.

The Windies of the 80’s brought a cool to the game. Awesome bowling attack and some top notch batters. The game is not as popular these days in the Caribbean

The moral of this story is, don't get a double century on debut if you want to become a legendary Test batsman.
