Former Grenada Prime Minister, Dr. Keith Mitchell, has showered praise on the West Indies cricket team for their historic victory over Australia in the final Test match at the Gabba on Sunday.
This remarkable win marked the West Indies’ first Test victory on Australian soil in 27 years.
Dr. Mitchell, who currently serves as Grenada’s opposition leader and chairs West Indies Cricket’s Sub Committee promoting stakeholder engagement, expressed his admiration for the West Indies’ performance. In a media statement, he lauded their “prowess and resilience” on the cricket field.
Emphasized his unwavering commitment
“As a staunch supporter of West Indies cricket, I am delighted by the team’s spectacular win against Australia,” Dr. Mitchell stated. He emphasized his unwavering commitment to the advancement of sports in Grenada and the wider Caribbean region.
The West Indies team was often underestimated before their tour of Australia, especially considering they included seven uncapped players in their 15-man squad. They began the series with a heavy 10-wicket defeat in the first Test in Adelaide. However, they turned the tables in dramatic fashion with a thrilling victory at the Gabba, leveling the series.
This historic win Down Under has sparked celebrations and optimism among West Indies cricket fans and supporters like Dr. Keith Mitchell, who continue to rally behind the team’s resurgence on the international stage.
