B&B (Trailer): ‘Reds’ Perreira says West Indies players prematurely rewarded for Bangladesh Test win

Renowned West Indies commentator Joseph ‘Reds’ Perreira suggests that the Cricket West Indies (CWI) acted prematurely in offering two-year contracts to players in the wake of the Test series win away to Bangladesh, but still sees the makings of a competitive team there.

Look out for Perreira’s full interview on the Burdie and Barney Show on Friday 24 September as we chat about his path from a farm-boy on Guyana’s Pomeroon river to globe-trotting journalist, the golden era of West Indies cricket, the slow death of the regional four-day game, and his endearing respect for legendary West Indies fast bowler and cricket analyst Michael Holding.
