However, the shock West Indies team made a spectacular comeback with a bilateral series win against England on home soil.
They also recorded their first Test win in Australia after 27 years. They leveled the series 1-1 on the strength of debutant fast bowler Shamar Joseph.
But CWI CEO Grave is not happy with the ICC. Speaking on the Wisden Cricket Monthly podcast, Graves said he was fed up with the phrase ‘world cricket needs a stronger West Indies team’, especially when it is doing everything possible to weaken it.
Graves said, “I think everyone is troubled by the statement that world cricket needs a stronger West Indies, whereas we certainly think that world cricket is doing everything they can at almost every level. We can do everything we can to ensure that West Indies cricket is never strong again.”
