Playing for the people and not themselves
There are reasons to smile for West Indies cricket after one of the more rewarding home seasons in recent times, despite the threat of a players' strike, writes Tony Becca in the Jamaica Gleaner
Regardless of how its members behave sometimes, probably most times, cricket does not belong to the board, and regardless of what they may say and believe, regardless of how great they may be or believe they are, cricket does not belong to the players - to the Test players, or to the first-class players. Cricket belongs to the people.
