Batsmen need to solve WI problems 8212; Harper

Tour manager Ricky Skerritt said the Windies were under too much pressure and needed to refocus.

8220;I think we have been putting a little too much pressure on ourselves, even before the tour began,8221; he said.

8220;We8217;ve been a bit overrun by too much mental stuff. The reality of two embarrassing losses is going to have a good impact on the players.

8220;The players understand where we8217;re at. They know that we have to pick ourselves up very quickly. You don8217;t need to tell the players that 8230; it8217;s clear what needs to be done.8221;
