Scare tactic?

Dear Editor,

Since the West Indies cricket team can no longer be depended on to be victorious in the game of cricket, may I suggest that the players be encouraged by the West Indies Cricket Board to wear sunblock of varying colours on the playing field, regardless of the weather conditions, in an attempt to scare the opposing team(s) into early submission(s). Scare tactics are know to have worked in many other disciplines.

Yours faithfully,
John Henry
