Let the “Tiger” be
THE current administration of West Indies cricket – the Board, the Selectors , the Coach – appear to be hell bent on hammering the final nails in the coffin that the West Indies cricket team finds itself in. This has been confirmed by a ‘Hilarious’ letter and the recent revelations by accomplished West Indian batsman Shivnarine “Tiger” Chanderpaul that there was interference with his batting during matches and that he was subjected to unreasonable questioning by the team management during the past year. I say, “Let the Tiger be!”
