West Indies Rebels 1983 Part Three

[@dennispicone6801]

After going back to their respective islands, and still not being recognised for their test cricket deeds, because of the rebel tours is pathetic. Lawrence Rowe, is still the only opener to score a triple century on debut. He averaged about 65, by the age of 27, before other issues forced him into an early retirement. They've done their time. About time their own people appreciated just how great they were.

Absolutely brilliant documentary this.

watched some of these matches as a 10 year old oblivious of what was going on. We indians were told where to sit, couldn't mix with the whites (God forbid). Some of this is still prevalent today.

Jimmy Cook was a great opener

Brilliant runout /umpiring decision at 5.17.

It is so sad that we continue to ostracize and vilify our West Indian players who went on that rebel tour, but we do very little to stand up to our cricket administrators who continue to oversee the ruins of West Indies Cricket. We have such a great cricketing brand, or should i say had, now we are the subject of pity and ridicule. Our fan base continues to dwindle while those who remain loyal are left to feast on a few victories here and there, and reminisce on our great past players. How the once mighty and feared West Indies has fallen. What does this say about our ability to manage our affairs as a region?

Good to see the cricket but it is actually a propaganda film right?
