West Indies have played test matches, that's why their runs in two innings are so low, if they were given the condition that they have to hit one boundary after another without staying
You are right. The performance of West Indies players in Test format is very poor. Although they can play well in T20 format, we rarely see good performances from West Indies players in Test format. West Indies players have very little patience. No West Indies player can survive at the crease for long. And this is why we don't see West Indies players performing well in the Test format against the big teams.

West Indies players are not in good form now. This renowned team could not qualify for the last ODI World Cup. West Indies' poor performance started after several players in the squad retired simultaneously. I would say West Indies players need to be more patient and hard working. If not, we will not see good performance from this team in the future.

The current West Indies team is quite different from the previous West Indies team. The previous team had enough talent to play all formats of Test ODI T20 but the current team is busy with T20 only, ODI and Test they have no headache. Now most of the players of West Indies are cricketers only to play various domestic tournaments but they have no headache about this poor state of cricket in the country. We admit that playing various domestic tournaments earns more money but playing national cricket can bring fame to the country. West Indies do not play various bilateral series throughout the year so the West Indies players must play seriously in the few series that are organized by the West Indies Cricket Board.

op I agree with you. That's because the way the West Indies team is actually performing is very disappointing. There are good players in the West Indies team, but they give very little importance to playing in the national team, they play more in the Premier League. Especially in the big events like IPL, the best players of West Indies are seen participating. If all those players had played with the importance of playing in their national team, the West Indies team might not have been in this situation today. I have seen very bad performance of West Indies team especially in ODI and Test. They play fairly well in T20 but they can't perform so well in ODI and Test cricket. So if the West Indies team wants to improve the game then the team management should give priority to the national team first and then play the premier league. If such rules are issued then the game of West Indies will definitely change.

They have been the most criticized for not getting a place in the ODI World Cup.There was a time when West Indies cricket was very successful but those days are now gone. They have ruled the entire cricket. Under the power of West Indies, the cricketers of the opposing team lived in fear. Currently, West indies have fallen very fast, they are heading towards relegation. The fans of the country of West Indies still love cricket a lot. I think the West Indies Cricket Board should change its thinking. Changing coaches, captains or new players frequently will not help. West Indies cricket still has many talented players, West Indies cricket today is going backwards due to weak structure. If the necessary steps are not taken from now, the West Indies cricket color may change in the future.
