Ja: Enough is enough with these hard heads

WEST INDIES selection chairman Sir Vivian Richards has conceded that he losing patience with developing cricketers in the team.

Following Saturday's eight-wicket loss to England inside three days in the third Cable & Wireless Test in Barbados, Sir Vivian knocked players in the squad and accused some of them of "going backwards".

"We are at a stage now where we are not learning as quickly as we should," Sir Vivian said in a radio interview on Voice of Barbados (VoB).

"When you have individuals who have been given enough opportunities, and opportunities in my view for you to be competitive, I haven't seen individuals learning, and learning rapidly the way I think they should in order for them to go forward," Sir Vivian added.

"I am a little bit worried ­ you can play a lot but some have not learnt a lot," he added.
