The gripping account of The Windies’ rise and fall, and of England’s resurgence on the world stage.

The West Indies’ 3-1 victory over England in 1994 extended their unbeaten run in Test series to 14 years – one of the most sustained periods of success in any sport. Yet, less than a year later, they were knocked down and never made it back since. Meanwhile, from the debris of defeat, England seemed to show hope with new captain Michael Atherton now in charge.

The Last Carnival recounts how the West Indies became the dominant team of the 1980s and early 1990s, using a formula of high fitness levels, lethal fast bowlers and destructive batsmen. Reporter Charlie Thomas vividly recalls the 1993–94 tour match by match, both on and off the pitch, and identifies the early signs of the West Indies’ decline, and the steady positive changes on the England side.

Through interviews with key protagonists from the famous series of ’94, the book looks at the state of cricket in The Windies today. It uncovers how England became a competitive outfit, what led to the fall of the West Indies and what can be done to revive cricket in the region.

For readers of Victory in Australia and Wisden titles, this is a must-read for cricket fans everywhere.
