'Quite embarrassing' – Chase on WI's Sabina Park loss

West Indies captain Roston Chase described being bowled out for 27, the second-lowest total in Test history, as "quite embarrassing."

Disappointing Batting Display

Chase expressed his disappointment, saying, "It's heartbreaking to be in a position where we think we can win the game and then come out and have that poor batting display. It's something that has been recurring for the whole series – that makes it even more disappointing."

Realistic Target

Chase believed the target of 204 was realistic, despite tough conditions for the batters throughout the Test. "I thought it was realistic… I mean, the wicket was a good wicket, still a good batting wicket. I didn't think there were too many devils in the wicket…"

Pitches Too Tough

Chase bemoaned the pitches on offer this series, saying, "I think the pitches were very tough… I don't want to say they were too in favour of the bowlers, but they were very tough because as you can see, this is probably the first series I've ever played when no batter got a hundred for each side."

Improvement Needed

Chase emphasized the need for improvement, saying, "We need to really take a deep look at ourselves as batters… The next series from here is quite a while. So we have time on our side. So I think that's what we need to really do, really have a look at our batting this series and see where we can improve and how we can put 300 run totals on the board."

Preparing for India

Chase looked ahead to the next series in India, saying, "Obviously India is going to be different conditions, probably more spinner-friendly. So I think if you can have some batting camps around playing spin bowling and stuff like that, I think that will be ideal for us going into those conditions."
