What were the highlights of the Nepal vs. West Indies T20I series?
This podcast is part of the Sports Social Podcast Network.
This is Kimo Roach, and I listen to the Caribbean Cricket Podcast.
Yes, yes, yes, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another edition of the Caribbean Cricket Podcast, a live edition of the Caribbean Cricket Podcast. We've tried to go live after every match of this Nepal series. Thankfully, that series is over. And within, what's Tuesday today, within 48 hours, West Indies begin another series, a test series against India. But today... Today, we have some positives to talk about. West Indies defeat in Nepal comprehensively by 10 wickets to make sure that we leave the T20 series. What was it called again? I don't know what they called it, but we leave the T20 series. We've left with something, a 2-1 defeat. And here's the thing. Here's the thing. Not to toot or blow my own trumpet, but immediately to toot or blow my own trumpet.
We did a or I sorry, I did a video. When was it? Was it last week? I did a video last week where I said and where I said in the video it was it was five things. It was cool. If you haven't watched it after this episode, go back, go back and watch the video that I did called five things that we need to see in the Nepal series. And the five things I said were, I said, number one, I want to see us win one game. And I stated in the video, we were going to lose the series. Nepal were clear favourites, but I wanted to see us win at least one game before the series was over. I said that I wanted Naveen Badesi to show why the team took him or why he was picked to go and play Nepal, because he offers a potential consistency of legspin bowling that nobody else really can offer in the region right now.
The third thing I said, I wanted to see a shootout between Obed McCoy and Ramon Simmons and one of them to show me something. The fourth thing, I said I wanted a batter who was yet to perform on the world stage to show us something, to show us something that we can invest in. And five, I said some of the young players to show us what the future might hold. I'm about to just blow my own trumpet here. You have a bunch of global cricket media. You have a bunch of domestic cricket media who couldn't see any of that stuff coming, who didn't write about any of that stuff coming, who couldn't understand that West Indies were definitely going to lose this series. Then you have Caribbean Cricket Podcast, who correctly pointed out before the series started that we were going to lose, that Nepal were clear favourites and the best we could hope for was one win.
You have us who speak truth and then you have others who are shot when things happen. Of those five things I expected to see, every single one of those five things happened. If you don't follow or subscribe to the Caribbean Cricket Podcast, you're not serious about West Indies cricket. You don't fully understand what's going on in West Indies cricket. We do. We do. How many people did you read before this series or watch before this series tell you bluntly West Indies will lose this? The best we can hope for is one win. How many people said that? And that's why I was so that's why I got so frustrated when I was seeing people who should know better going. This is a shock. Nepal of Nepal have defeated a full member.
No, it's not a shock. No, it's not a shock. Look at this fool now, Z. Mash, I'm not criticizing, but you always speak down bad on the team. No, Z, stop it. Stop it. I don't speak down bad on the team. I am realistic about the team. See, we've entered a series of fandom in the 21st century where people think you can only speak positive or you can only speak negative. And you forget the nuance of, no, some people just talk the actual talk, the actual reality of where West Indies cricket is at. Have I or have I not been saying on this platform for the longest while, we are at rock bottom? And that's no... But here's the thing. That's no criticism of the players. It is what it is. It is what it is. Let me... Listen, if you're watching this live right now, or if you're watching this on the replay, let me... Please, please, I am begging you.
