I love Sammy's response to WICB

[rfari]

Shots fired at wicb. Hope it gains some traction

[bluefete]

Daren Sammy boy: Waaayyzzz.

These men are true champions

No encouragement from the WICB on the morning of the game.

Rawle Lewis having to hunt down uniforms for the side.

Big up to Phil as the coach who was almost fired.

I think Darren Sammy knows he won't be coming back into the WI side so he let it all hang out.

[*$kїđž!™]

Good for WICB ....unless they don't get rid of that board we might not see sammy again..........I like what he did though...

WICB board fail yes....this win is for the fans!!!!

Regarding the WICB.

Who are they ?, Who appoints them ? What do they do ? and why do they seem to be the cause of everything wrong with cricket. I've been hearing about how bad they are since the 90's.

In other news..
Samuels Fined For Breaching ICC Code Of Conduct

Marlon Samuels of the West Indies has been fined 30 per cent of his match fee for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during his side’s ICC World Tweny20 India 2016 final against England at Eden Gardens on Sunday.

Samuels was found to have breached Article 2.1.4 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “using language or a gesture that is obscene, offensive or insulting during an International Match”.

The incident happened in the final over of West Indies’ run-chase when Samuels used abusive and offensive language directed at Ben Stokes after Carlos Braithwaite hit the bowler for three successive sixes.Samuels admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by Ranjan Madugalle of the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Match Referees and, as such, there was no need for a formal hearing.

The charge were levelled by on-field umpires Kumar Dharmasena and Rod Tucker, third umpire Marais Erasmus and fourth umpire Bruce Oxenford, all from the Emirates Elite Panel of ICC Match Referees.

For all first offences, Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand and a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player’s match fee.

They'll charge samuels for his sendoff but stokes gets away unscathed for sledging samuels every over because he cry down the place...

[Trinispougla]

First reaction after the win: what kinda obeah I jus see here

[The Paleontologist]

Felt sorry for stokes for like a 5 seconds.
Congratulations to the WI men, women and U_19.
Exhilarating game today

[*$kїđž!™]

So the wicb didnt wish the team a good game....neither provided them with uniforms?......whAt a shame......get rid of this wicb......give the cricket back to the people who actually care.......

Sad samuels was fined though ....reports say he was heading towards England camp to throw his shirt at them.....it does seems so in the replay......lol..

Man come good for west Indies at a critical time yes......wow ...just wow....

Warne get make out we

[TurboSingh12]

So who won the red GTR?

[Trinispougla]

West Indies is a health hazard, sure at least 10 people got heart attacks in the Caribbean if not more...............or strokes

[Dizzy28]

So who won the red GTR?

Virat Kohli.......there is a vid of him driving Gayle around Delhi in his Audi R8 and he also has an Audi R8 LMX. The GTR doesn't seem to fit with his brand of choice.

[Dizzy28]

All that he have... We windies boys does shine up their tiida and bt50

I saw Lendl three weeks ago on the EMR in a PDK (or L can't remember) white Range Rover Sport.
Last year saw Narine by Andy Wheels in Arouca putting on rims on his new BMW 7 series.

The Trini windies boys have their big rides too!!

[Dizzy28]

Serious???? Definitely ent wicb money they playing with

T20 leagues is where the money at - Simmons for example has played a few years now for Mumbai Indians, he has played Big Bash and ram slam, CPL and two seasons of Stanford 20/20. All pay in US$ dollars. Simmons Man of the Series award in the CPl two years ago was a pretty expensive piece of land in St Kitts.
Money nice for them boys.

It is quite conceivable that the a number of Trini T20 stars have already earned more than Lara ever earned in his entire career.

[*$kїđž!™]

Serious???? Definitely ent wicb money they playing with

Good lawd man they make millions in the ipl and cpl......

http://zeenews.india.com/sports/cricket ... 40502.html

Narine is getting paid 80000000 rupees..that's 1.2 mill USD....

Please correct me if I am wrong
