The story behind the first West Indies tour to England in 1900. Cricket had been played in the Caribbean for many years and in the second half of the 19th century inter-colonial matches began to be played between the various British colonies. The 1890s saw three visits by English touring sides which triggered the creation of a representative XI for the combined West Indies, but the different levels of racial integration evident in the cricket in the various colonies meant that the selection of players was to be a controversial issue. Eventually the West Indies sent a party of 15 comprised of 10 white and 5 black players including Lebrun Constantine, father of Learie, and Charles Ollivierre who stayed behind after the tour to become a stalwart of the Derbyshire side and the first Afro-Caribbean player in county cricket.
