WordsWorth

Pithy remarks and quotable quotes. Wordsworth takes the best statements of the week and packages them into one exciting feature. From quotes that help you delve further into the psyche of players to acerbic barbs from incensed cricketers to remarks that are just downright hilarious, we have them all. They may not quite be "from the mouths of babes and sucklings," but they are just as interesting.

"It's really sad for all involved, for the fans and the players. We don't even have a chance to make up for this loss because of the tight schedule," Match referee Mike Proctor after the announcement to call off the second one-dayer was made.

"Yes, I'm happy that the team under Carl (Hooper) is performing well. When we picked him, there were too many views. And what I told then, I am repeating now. We picked Carl on the basis of performance and he is a performing captain," outgoing West Indies selector Joel Garner.

"The WICB is privileged to welcome outstanding former West Indies cricketers such as Sir Vivian and Gordon Greenidge as new members of the panel along with experienced selector Joey Carew," WICB chairman Rev. Wes Hall after the new selection panel was announced.

"I think I should have got another chance. Every cricketer passes through these phases when he fails in one or two matches," Deep Dasgupta

"We lost the series in our heads rather than anywhere else," Ganguly said. "We do not lack ability, but there has got to be something in our minds that makes us lose overseas crunch games like this," Sourav Ganguly after the Test series .

"We are making progress, and I think finally turning the corner. There is a lot of hard work to do still, better teams out there to play. Maybe one day when we can compete with an Australian side, it would be time to say we have truly turned the corner and are back on top," West Indies skipper Carl Hooper after the Test series.

"We lost a golden opportunity...after a gap of 16 years. We lost because we didn't click when it mattered," former Indian captain Ajit Wadekar.
