Andy Roberts slams CWI
After facing a humiliating 0-3 series defeat, Roberts wasn’t sitting back and made his emotions public by stating, “That is the way it has been. When we were playing, if we had five Test matches against India, two would be in Trinidad.
“It was because more people would come to watch those games. Those were the non-television days and more crowds in the ground had meant more revenue.
“It is no longer that way now, the revenue comes from the television but still the board plays more India games in Trinidad or Guyana,” the former player told Cricbuzz.
He also added that there was more support for India the recently concluded ODI series against the West Indies. ALl the matches were played at the same venue – Queen’s Park Oval stadium. It is located in Trinidad and Tobago.
