LEEDS, United Kingdom, , (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 24th Aug, 2017 ) : Stuart Law has urged the West Indies to ignore their critics and follow Jermaine Blackwood's example as they look to bounce back in the second Test against England at Headingley.
Friday's match comes less than a week since West Indies coach Law saw his side suffer a crushing innings and 209-run defeat in the series opener at Edgbaston as the inaugural day/night Test in England ended inside three days.
That led West Indies fast-bowling great Curtly Ambrose to label the current side "pathetic".
Law was saddened that Ambrose, until recently the West Indies' bowling coach, had vented his criticism in a British newspaper rather than directly to the players.
"Curtly not long ago was the coach of this team so it is disappointing that criticism comes," said Law. "We have to understand why it is there. We are not performing as well as we want. "What can we do? We have to get our noses down, our backsides up and play better.
I believe in these young men. They have got high skills. "It is just the experience of learning how to play in a very tough environment."
