After winning its second World T20 within four years in 2016, the West Indies’ slide has been spectacular. Almost as spectacular as some of the strokes its fearless batsmen have been producing around the world in franchise cricket.

Since then, West Indies has played 15 bilateral series and lost nine of them, including the recent one to Afghanistan at Lucknow last month. Pollard’s men were on the verge of losing their 16th. But, after being outplayed in the first of the three-match series against India, they bounced back in style.
