Courtney Walsh presses for regional cricket improvement

by May 2nd, 2018

Former West Indies fast bowler, Courtney Walsh, believes that more can be done at the territorial level to improve the standard of cricket in the region.

Walsh speaking in Antigua recently said he is not convinced that all national boards in the Caribbean are making a concerted effort at improving the level of cricket played in the respective countries.

Walsh, who claimed 519 wickets in 132 tests and 227 wickets in 205 one day internationals, believes that the preparation of better pitches, coupled with the increased amount of first class matches already being played, is a step in the right direction.

As for the senior team’s performance on the international level, Walsh said their inability to consistently do the right things on the field is one of their major downfalls.
