The Washington Post takes the Clinton Administration to task over its conflicting policies toward Cuba. The United States is taking steps to curb imports of underwear and nightwear from eight countries including two Caribbean countries, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic. The West Indies cricket team suffers a second successive defeat by Australia at the Kensington Oval in Barbados. Australia wins the first test of the four match series by a crushing ten wickets. Sir Garfield Sobers expresses concern about what lies ahead for the West Indies team. Bertram Niles reports on what the Barbados press have been saying about the overwhelming defeat at the hands of the Aussies. The defeat attracted much attention in the sport pages of the English press. Hugh Crosskill reports on some of the headlines appearing in the British press.

Roberts addresses concerns about the players in the opening spots and the return of Richie Richardson as the captain of the team.
