After a humiliating whitewash 2-0 defeat by Bangladesh, West Indies cricket board and the senior players committee have agreed upon the appointment of former Commonwealth secretary general Shridath Ramphal as arbitrator for the contractual issues which had forced the senior players to go on a strike and boycott the Test series. The second-string team couldnot handle the spin wizardry of Bangladesh and handed them their first overseas series victory.
West Indies board had been in such situation many a time and should have learnt some lesson by the loss of a home test series against minnows like Bangladesh.
The senior players have made themselves available for the ODI series against Bangladesh, which will make it interesting how the Bangladesh team tackles the task of facing Gayle and company. West Indies might come on heavily on Bangladesh to avenge the Test loss, and Bangladesh have come out chest thumping, with confidence full to the brim and it should provide an interesting short series of ODI matches.
