Not every Windies team is mired in turmoil.
One is doing quite well actually.
Captained by prolific opener Kraigg Brathwaite, the regional Under-19 side arrived yesterday at the Grantley Adams International Airport following a successful series against Australia’s Under-19 team in Dubai.
Doing what their senior side has not done since 1995, the Windies soundly defeated Australia by four wickets in their one-off “Test” after winning the three-match one-day series 2-1.
The 18-year-old Brathwaite starred with the bat, also getting great assistance from fellow Barbadian Kyle Mayers.
Here, Brathwaite (right) is welcomed home yesterday by his uncle Charles.
Aye, aye, skipper!
