So based on this squad we are going with 5 batsmen, with Shai openning? Have I got this correct?
TRAINING SQUAD
Devendra Bishoo, Jermaine Blackwood, Kraigg Brathwaite , Darren Bravo
Shannon Gabriel, Jason Holder, Shai Hope, Veerasammy Permaul, Denesh Ramdin
Kemar Roach, Marlon Samuels, Jerome Taylor.

players from the president's 11 may be added to that squad

We promote Holder to 6 and bringing the extra bowler. I hope our batsmen are getting good practice.
Well, hopefully an opener is added to the squad, so that Hope could bat at number 5 or 6.
A score of 200 will be a great achievement for Simmons and Co.

I want Holder at 5 because he's still learning and he needs to have a batsman mindset. At 6 he may feel a little rushed if we lose Ramdin and he has to just bat with the tail. I think Blackwood has shown the maturity to bat with the tail at 6. This is an extremely important position and we need Blackwood t9 do the job he's been doing there.
