Dear Editor,

I write to express my desire to see the West Indies Cricket Board become very pro-active towards taking serious note of Mickey Arthur’s interest in coaching the West Indies cricket team.

With his knowledge and experience of previously coaching the former number one and current number one Test teams — Australia and South Africa — this should be sweet music to the administrators’ ears.

As opportunity peeps his eye towards West Indies, I urge the head of the West Indies Cricket Board to grab at this moment and take Arthur’s interest seriously.

Make hay while the sun shines at this moment. This could be a blessing in disguise.

The South African who is the present coach of the Tallawahs in the Limacol Premier League has certainly demonstrated his prowess in the assistance to Jerome Taylor and the others who have demonstrated the win culture that West Indies cricket badly needs at this time. He could make us number one again.
