Bagladesh no more minnows in reality!

Bangladesh won their first ever away test in St Vincent West Indies and only their second ever test win in over 60 test matches by 95 runs as commendable and encouraging as the victory is to the cricket crazy nation this match Test No. 1923 will be better remembered for the debacle that it was which had almost no recognizable names in the West Indian squad. The contract row that has been going on with the Caribbean cricketing fraternity for too long now has resulted in the WICB making a mockery of the game itself. Why the ICC that has taken upon itself to introduce T20 test matches and in the height of officiousness insisting on experimenting with hair brained schemes that include chopping off the last day of tests does nothing to step in and solve the issue that has now just about killed the game in the Caribbean. Its in the interest of the game and its future in the Caribbean that the contract issue be resolved at the earliest, else more farces like the one witnessed in the past week shall continue to take place and destroy one of the greatest bastions of cricketing excellence that created countless greats of the game and shall consign it to the dusty books of history.
