The glory years of West Indian cricket are long gone as the team that won the first two editions of the 50-over World Cup did not even qualify for last year's tournament in India. However, with West Indies winning a test in Australia for the first time in 27 years in January, Bolt is confident that the Caribbeans have finally left all their struggles behind. "I'm always going to go with my home team," Bolt said on Wednesday at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, where tournament officials offered a glimpse of the newly constructed, 34,000 seat stadium.
