Calmer than you imagine any Trinbago cricket fan would be, Bobby smirked his way through our entire fo’daymorning Republic Day walk. A smirk is a kind of fleeting oral halo. It is a personal recognition of if not saintliness, at least rightness. Maybe not every time, it concedes-cum-brags, but this …

That Monday morning when Bobby sent me back to the 1950s and an old Sparrow kaiso about Carnival queens, Denyse Plummer was still with us… Fo’daymorning. I pull up in front of his house as usual to start our walk to the Eddie Hart Savannah. On the way, he makes …

They left it late. But in the end, Kieron Pollard’s Trinbago Knight Riders reversed the result of Saturday evening’s match-up against Dwayne Bravo’s St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and finished on top of the 2021 CPL group stage table. The four-wicket victory they carved out at Warner Park in St …

Not having yet got the memo, the Guyana Amazon Warriors might have opted out of the 2017 CPL today at the Providence Stadium in Guyana. Put in to bat by Trinbago Knight Riders’ skipper Dwayne Bravo, they lost a mere five wickets in their 20 overs but only managed to …

In T20 cricket, there are times—not often—when 120-odd is a defensible total. Last night, when the fifth-placed Guyana Amazon Warriors (2 pts) hosted the third-placed Jamaica Tallawahs (6 pts) in the 15th match of the current CPL season, was one of those rare occasions when 128 proved enough for the team …

“The supply of cricketers is not nearly as great here in the West Indies as in Pakistan, say, with its almost 195 million or India (1.2 billion) or even England (55 million). “Inexplicably, however, we have found a way to reduce the supply of players available for international cricket by …
