I only miss the West Indies team that everyone was afraid to play against and West Indies used to score a lot of runs. I miss the popular West Indian cricketers like Chris Gayle, Jason Holder, Marlon Samuels, Darren Bravo, Darren Sammy, Andre Russell and Sunil Narine. During their time, West Indies was a very strong and dominant team in the cricket world. After them, I have not seen any star players in West Indies cricket. Although we still see some devastating cricketers like Nicholas Pooran, Rovman Powell in the West Indies team, but they are best for different leagues. They do not have a big role in the national team. In the golden era of West Indies, maybe their second or third row team would have easily defeated Ireland. However, all of that is in the past. Now we have to accept that the West Indies cricket team is slowly fading away.
