Following the relegation to Division 4 and the fact that so many people have decided to have a say, Islandstats.com has decided to make a point.
Too often, we have seen Bermuda enter an International competition without adequate practice. Each time, the players are unfairly put in a bad situation but do their best under the circumstances.
Given the manner in which the season progressed and the way the selection and preparation were handled, the team's performance in the tournament was par for the course. Only believers in miracles actually thought that the team would come out on top.
Time and again, Bermuda players have been shortchanged by the administration on two essential ingredients - planning and preparation. Until these become part of the cricketing culture, perhaps we should all acknowledge the simple reality - Bermuda is a Division Four team. Bermuda clearly has the ability to finish at the top of that division on the strength of its natural talent, but that's that.
Progress to Division Three and beyond needs organizational resilience, it is that simply.
