    Default Calypso Cricket

    Looks like the Windies have captured a moment from their past;

    3 for 347 (80.5 overs)

    Hinds 188*
    Chanderpaul 102*

    They were 3-106 in the 30th over, so 250 runs in the next 50 overs between these 2.

    No Lara in the team? Anyone know whats happening there? Some contract dispute, also affecting Gayle and Sarwan.

    Yep. Still disputing over the telecommunications sponsorship. Not exactly sure who is missing as a result.

    I wonder if they will collapse as soon as one of these guys get out.

    huge contract dispute that is ripping the heart out of west indies cricket. same dispute that nearly canned the australian tour this year.

    6 guys have been blacklisted for signing private sponsorship with C&W a rival company to Digicell the teams sponsor. the problem is only that they refused to disclose to the board the terms of the contract.

    Lara had a contract with C&W before Digicell came along so he is not in trouble over that. He is only on the outer becuase he is standing by the other 6, and he did not reply to an offer made by the board.

    the 6 include, Lara, Sarwan, Gayle, Fidel, cant remember the rest.

    the latest story is that Sarwan and Gayle have terminted C&W contracts.
