Dwayne Bravo attributes Windies' poor results to lack of unity

The West Indies hardly impressed in the three-match Test series that preceded the One-Dayers and lost the advantage the few times they held it.

Before that, they struggled in the two-match Test series in India, though they managed to win one of the three ODIs in a close, high-scoring game.

On Christmas morning, a movie depicting the struggles of the iconic Nelson Mandela motivated a battered team.

"We sat down yesterday morning, Christmas morning, and watched Invictus the movie with Morgan Freeman acting as Nelson Mandela. That inspired us,” said the ODI skipper.

“It showed the importance of sport. We are fortunate to represent our nation. We are the few players to do that. It hurts our fans when we don't win cricket games, and not only losing, but the way we lose at times."
