THE topsy-turvy cricketing life of Denesh Ramdin has taken another back flip.

Given the history, it is premature to believe that his reliably reported omission from the West Indies team to the triangular ODI series in Zimbabwe next month is his last tumble.

Over the 15 years since he first played in West Indies colours in the champion team in the one-off Under-15 international Costcutter Cup in England in 2000, Ramdin has experienced the idiosyncracies of West Indies administrators and selectors more than most others. Every time he has surmounted them.

Only Jeffrey Dujon of West Indies’ wicket-keepers has played more Tests, 79 to Ramdin’s 69; only Dujon (167) and Ridley Jacobs (147) have more than his 127 ODIs. Neither was ever dropped.

Well, it seems like the tour to Zimbabwe will no longer take place, but I hope the Selectors were just resting Ramdin, if they were going to exclude him from the team. The WI need to have a few senior players in the team until the present young players get more comfortable at the international level.

All Rumors.

Not according to Clive Lloyd .

Youth movement and he does not care.

Holder as uncapped youth captaining d team in a major, major tournament and we looked foolish but he was smiling and looking all happy.

But Commie did tell unnoo dis was coming sooner rather than later.

Of course Twissy will preempt anybody by declaring she saw it years ago in a dream.
