West Indies’ disappointing performances in the previous two T20 World Cups have not gone unnoticed, and the stocks of their players seem to have fallen in the format they were better at than most not so long ago.Ten of the 17 Carribean players have been released and those retained were Shimron Hetmyer (RR), Alzarri Joseph (GT), Obed McCoy (RR) and Kyle Mayers (LSG) apart from Sunil Narine and Andre Russell, who were in the original retention list of Kolkata Knight Riders. Even the peerless Kieron Pollard has been dispensed with if one were allowed to say so — for the record he has announced retirement from the league but he will play in other leagues. The same goes for Dwayne Bravo too.A lot of these players were bought at inflated prices last year, a by-product of the mega-auction dynamics, and the teams could look to buy some of them back at lower costs. All said, it is time for Windies cricketer to analyse what went wring and why they failed to even make it to Super 12 stage in T20WC. Remember they won the trophy twice
