Pooran said that West Indies are often lacking their biggest stars during bilateral series, which in turn hurts their results.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>West Indies are the reigning champions in the T20 World Cup and the only team to have won the tournament more than once. However, they are ranked a lowly 10th on the International Cricket Council&#39;s rankings for the shortest format of the game.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Personally, I am looking forward to the T20 World Cup [to be held in 2021 in India]. As a team, our strength is T20s. For the last couple of times, we&#39;ve been doing good in World Cups, but as a team where we are ranked [10th], it doesn&#39;t show how good our team actually is,&quot; Pooran said in a virtual press conference hosted by the Abu Dhabi T10 League. Pooran will captain Northern Warriors in the tournament this season that starts on January 28.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Most of the senior guys are coming back to the West Indies team. Kieron Pollard, Dwayne Bravo, Andre Russell, and Sunil Narine are all coming back eventually. As a player, I am especially excited because I want to do good for the West Indies people and put a smile on their faces. My record for West Indies in T20s isn&#39;t that good and I want to improve on that for the next couple of months,&quot; said Pooran.<\/p>\r\n",
