MACHEL HEWITT: The true test of Daren Sammy's process will be how West Indies perform against the teams around them. Pakistan are one such team.

MANGESH KULKARNI: West Indies fans have just the right amount of hope to hold on to.
24.07.26Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: Unless there is a dramatic change to the way women’s cricket is organised and supported in the West Indies, they will continually find themselves in a position of having to overturn the odds.
10.07.26Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: Jason Holder is still the premier all-rounder in West Indies cricket and surely walks into the West Indies Test side, even if only for his batting proficiency. So why hasn’t it happened?
19.06.26Opinion
MANGESH KULKARNI: West Indies' 2-1 series win over Sri Lanka represents their first bilateral T20I series victory since 2024, and that alone deserves recognition.
17.06.26Opinion
JOEL BAILEY: The West Indies T20 squad has a very familiar look
11.06.26Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: The Red Force run was the definition of doing it the hard way, so there can be no doubt that they were worthy winners.
25.05.26Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: When you ask players and fans to trust your process, that process surely contains a clear dividing line between backing the squad and rewarding the potential next big things.
10.05.26Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: Repeating a failed strategy and blindly anticipating change feels very similar to the broad definition of insanity.
30.04.26Opinion
MANGESH KULKARNI: Should we be proud, or should we ask why the Caribbean is only sending seven players to the IPL?
19.04.26Opinion
OSPREY: Why have the West Indies women struggled to maintain their competitive advantage over their rivals?
23.03.26Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: Do we trust the current system to be able to polish rough diamonds without a substantial increase in the frequency of quality coaching and cricket opportunities?
20.03.26Opinion
STEPH JAGGASAR: Since their posts in India emerged, the backlash against the West Indian camp, and disproportionately Sammy, was intense.
15.03.26Opinion
JACOB MAITOZA: Instead of measuring these men by the standards of Chris Gayle, Bravo, and Badree, judge them by the standards of their time.
11.03.26Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: For too long, fans have been demanding that a reliable bridge be built between the U19 level, where West Indian talent is plentiful, and the senior level, where many of the bright sparks have, in many cases, long since faded away.
28.02.26Opinion
DAN DE VERTEUIL: Lara, I would argue, has the best case for his career being prematurely cut off as a batsman.
12.02.26Opinion
MANGESH KULKARNI: As the West Indies arrive in India for the T20 World Cup, their squad offers power, versatility, and experience. What it does not offer, however, is room for indecision.
02.02.26Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: Nicholas Pooran’s early retirement sets a precedent that individual wealth takes priority over international honours, foreshadowing a bleak future for West Indies cricket. If the next generation takes its cue from this icon, we should pack up now.
08.01.26Opinion
JOEL BAILEY: Recent performances have put Test captain and vice-captain Roston Chase and Jomel Warrican under the microscope
03.01.26Opinion
RORY SMITH: You could argue that the West Indies proves that nations and territories are stronger as a group than if each member went it alone, and while that may be true, at least the members play under a universal banner that resonates, unites, and speaks of a shared sporting history.
29.12.25Opinion
MANGESH KULKARNI: In conditions historically unforgiving to visiting sides, especially West Indian batting, the team did more than merely compete; they quietly overachieved.
27.12.25Opinion
MACHEL HEWITT: As a collective, it is high time our region rejects insularity, levels up on emotional intelligence, and understands that approaches that worked in the 1970s and ‘80s are no longer relevant in 2025. They haven’t been relevant for decades.
03.12.25Opinion
JOEL BAILEY: Some might say the West Indies limited overs defeat in New Zealand was to be expected, while others might point out that they failed to capitalise on good opportunities to seize the initiative.
29.11.25Opinion
VAID AMITTAI: The Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board are embroiled in a financial and political scandal that speaks to the decline of standards and accountability in West Indies Cricket.
