How do you get Shai Hope in the team when it's the right time to do so. Tuff one now.

Steupes. Be fair man. Devon got an excellent delivery in the first innings. Is not like he threw his wicket away

Is dat de standard to judge your worth....whether you threw your wicket away or not?

A bastman's job is to keep out 6 excellent deliveries in every over...and score runs to boot

If you can't do that then you have failed...PERIOD

Hope just needs to focus on Hope...make runs...his time will come very soon.

Wtf

So every batsman on west indies failed.

By your standard at some time even Bradman failed when he didn't keep out six balls in some over.

lol

After about 3 or 4 FC games, Hope became the next best thing since sliced bread. So much so that he HAS to make the team asap.

It depends on Chanderpaul. He's still scoring runs but at his age he's very much a series by series player, I do think he'll finish up after the series against Australia with the tours to Zimbabwe & Sri Lanka being the right time to juggle the batting line-up.

I would also start to question Samuels role in the side, his experience isn't being justified with some of his performances and his lazy ways of getting out.

Not sure Marlon has done enough to warrant the drop. And Simmo will no doubt want to see if he can inject into him the qualities that are missing before he dumps him.

But I certainly see Marlon as being in more danger of being dropped than Shiv... even with his bowling.

I am anxious to see this special talent.

I say that trying hard to forget the very low standard of the regional first class game.
