West Indies skipper Kieron Pollard has said that the crushing defeat to England in the opening Super 12 game here on Saturday was something he cannot be proud of, adding that wholesale changes could be in the offing in the defending champions' next game.

On whether the defeat was a case of poor decision-making or a genuinely good display on the field by England, Pollard said that a "55-odd for an international team is unacceptable."

"Again as I said, it's not something that we are proud of as a team. We got out. But I'm not going to go into what it is or how it is. Obviously, just plain to see, 55-odd for the international team I think is unacceptable and we accept that. So we revisit and hopefully we come back stronger," he said.
