Now many cricket lovers are worried about a question and that is why the West Indies team, which was world champion in 2012 and 2016, is not a part of the Men’s ODI Cricket World Cup 2023 to be played this time in India.

The Mahakumbh of ODI cricket is now in full swing in India. This cricket fever has reached everyone’s head. India, Pakistan, Australia, England, Sri Lanka, South Africa, New Zealand, Netherlands, Afghanistan, Bangladesh are the ten teams participating in the Men’s ODI Cricket World Cup 2023.

Big names of west Indies cricket players

Chris Gayle is known as Universe boss in the cricket. The condition of the West Indies team, which had shown the world dominate, has become very bad today.

West Indies cricket team has not become a part of the Men’s One Day World Cup cricket competition 2023 being played in India. The common cricket lover would definitely want to know the reason behind it.

T20 Premier League: This invention of cricket has become very popular. T20 is a fast-paced format of cricket which the world likes. This is the reason why the condition of the West Indies cricket team has become very bad.

Many big players of West Indies keep playing in T20 Premier League throughout the year. Now West Indies does not have best players to play in the World Cup.

In IPL, Rajasthan Royals team has contracted West Indies’ Shimron Hetmyer for Rs 8.5 crore. On the other hand, Andre Russell of West Indies gets Rs 16 crore annually. So this is the financial mathematics which has now made it impossible for these players to play for the West Indies team.

Passion to play for the country is important

Playing for your country is a great honor but along with this money also matters. If you get the right salary  then you remain satisfied. West Indies players get paid more in various T20 cricket premier leagues and earning well than the board.

Perhaps this is the reason why capable players like Andre Russell, Shamron Hetmyer or Sunil Narine are no longer with the Cricket West Indies Board.

These players are associated with various cricket leagues throughout the year, hence all these cricketers have voluntarily said goodbye to West Indies cricket.

The West Indies team has been formed by combining small Caribbean countries. He has to play in the name of the West Indies team instead of his country. This could also be a reason that perhaps the passion required to play for the country is not visible in these players.

How much salary players get from West Indies Board

In just six months, players are earning more by playing cricket leagues in different countries than the annual salary that the West Indies Cricket Board is paying to the players.

If the board had managed the salaries of the cricketers properly, perhaps the West Indies team would have been seen playing together today.

There was a time when the whole world was afraid of the West Indies players. If a new player joined the team, he was afraid that playing with the West Indies might spoil his initial cricket career.

Now the time has come that if a new player joins the team, then first of all he would like to play with West Indies to make his career.
