There used to be a time when the West Indian cricket team had skillful and fearsome bowlers and attacking batsmen, especially in 1980s till early 1990s. Many a times, they used to dismiss other teams for scored like 100, 150 or even lower and used to win test matches by huge margins. But now, barring a few series, the West Indies team looks to be at the receiving end. India won against West Indies by a huge 318 runs margin! Jasprit Bumrah took 5 wickets for just 7 runs, and West Indies were bowled out for 100 runs only. Earlier, Ajinkya Rahane - man of the match for 81 and 102, Hanuma Vihari, Ravindra Jadeja, Rishabh Pant and Virat Kohli - second innings took India to top in the batting department. There is one test to go and Windies need to improve a lot. Source : Times Of India website sports section

It's too bad they're not as good as they used to be.

@just4him yes they had rapid decline in the last two decades. There has been some revival recently, but still they have a lot to cover.
