Example Sentences
- "Every knowledgeable cricketing WIndian knows to expect the best and the worst from WI at any time and place.""
- "2002: "That spirit is not unique to the West Indies, I'm sure, but the Windian expression of it is, as we see with all the characters at Windian grounds out to have a party and enjoy a good "lime". And the Windian character off the field has its reflection on the field as well, which is why Dravid was safe on that occasion, and the appeal was stifled, even though technically he could have been out." — Sidney Thomas, [news:///rec.sport.cricket rec.sport.cricket], [news:///3CD819BC.636A6235@verizon.net ]"
