Roland Butcher was the first black player to play cricket for England back in 1980 and he speaks to us from Barbados, where he now lives, to review the progressof West Indies cricket in 2023.
Despite not qualifying for the World Cup in India recently, Roland is upbeat about the overall picture of the team's progress, not only in white ball cricket but points to success at u19s, u23s and Academy levels across all formats. Red ball cricket - despite reports to the contrary - is thriving in the islands and local interest in the game has never been higher despite problems the game is facing in Jamaica.
