00:00West Indies women's head coach Shane Dietz is aware that the team depends heavily on
00:04the likes of captain Hayley Matthews and all-rounded Deandra Dotton to get the job done.
00:09This point has come up in the wake of the team's poor showing in the ODI series, which
00:13has already been clinched by India with a game remaining.
00:17We're putting in a lot of work to improve the other players, obviously over the period
00:24of the last five, eight years or so, there's Stefani Taylor as well, those three have been
00:31the big three for West Indies cricket.
00:34But we're never going to be a successful team unless we've got 11, 15, really 20 world-class
00:40players.
00:41So how we do that is what we're looking at, there's a lot of things we need to do better
00:45back in the Caribbean, regional cricket, consistent 12-month programs for the players.
00:54Dietz is far from pleased with the way the Wendys have been bowling in the series.
00:58In the two ODIs played, India were able to make an excess of 300, the scores being 314
01:04for 9 and 358 for 5.
01:06We haven't been able to bowl consistent, line of length and bowl to a field and in the good
01:11wickets here, fast outfields, you've got to be able to cut off one side of the field and
01:16be able to bowl to a field and we haven't been able to do that, we've been leaking two
01:20bad balls and over, going for four minimum and the Indian team have batted really well
01:25and punished anything that we've missed, so very disappointing.
01:30Many questions come about as a result of the poor showing such as, are the players motivated?
01:35What can be done to motivate them so they can improve?
01:39This is what Dietz has to say.
01:41We set up the meetings and the players get them some input, we have one-on-one talks
01:46with them, try to find out how we can improve and like any cricket or sports, men and women's
01:52got to, their goal is just to get better every day and that's our goal, just try to get better
01:56every day.
01:57The third and final ODI is on Friday and unlike the previous two, it's a day game.
