Yes good point Maranello, the West Indiea is made up of Independant national states,their union brough great results, Marshall Holding, we all know the rest, also they are not on the best of a finacial footing as it is, how would they have coped as individual nations.

Yes Maranello and is Wales not included in the England and Wales cricket board?.

Back to Holland, this aricle from cricinfo, just shows how short of cash they are.

He continued: "We and the players also felt it was time. He has done a magnificent job, taking us to an ICC Trophy win, two European Championships and our first win in a World Cup."

He added it was hoped the new coach could be announced in around six weeks. "We want to take time to get the right man." Peter Cantrell, the former Queensland opener and Netherlands batting coach, will oversee the team until a successor is appointed.

Meanwhile the Dutch national team will not return to Cape Town for their annual off-season training camp, because of budget constraints.

See now that annoys me, The ICC, a big Dutch company or even the South African Board should be helping them out here by subsidising this tour and offering the right level of opposition for them.

The money they waste on giving contracts to Klusener, Peters and Dippenear would pay for the Dutch to go, and bring on their cricket.

PSV Eindhoven, Ajax Amsterdam, AZ Alkaamar...Big Dutch Football names....In Holland, there is no appeal in cricket....South Africa should help them out, giving the likes of Klusener and HD Ackerman to Holland to boost their side
