Not wanting to be a spoilsport or rain on the parade of euphoria, success, and elation currently embracing Trinidad and Tobago cricket, there is one thing that has troubled me for a while, and this is as good a time as any to raise it.
Why has Joshua Da Silva fallen so far out of favour with Cricket West Indies (CWI)? He has gone from being considered a potential West Indies captain to a non-factor where the CWI selection panel is concerned.
Is it that Da Silva spoke out of turn to the media (April 28, 2025 edition of the Trinidad Newsday)? Or is he paying for past sins when skin colour determined who captained the West Indies cricket team? We moved past that era with Sir Frank Worrell. However, is it that there are those who feel deep down that Da Silva, for non-cricket reasons, should never captain the regional side?
