Selectors picked a mediocre team in an attempt to spite experienced players, without any concernation about the embarrassment to the region. For if they are not capable of beating a regional team, we are in greater trouble than originally envisioned especially when playing against world ranking teams during Tri-nation matches. Wi selectors have lost their WI cricket pride, despite our dominance of T20 cricket which featured our experienced players blended with younger players. Why not do the same for ODI and test cricket?
240 all out in 47.1 overs
I repeat, the WI A-team squad is better than the first team
Not a bad showing... Some of the regulars should have gotten better scores tho.
Jason Holder
Kieron Pollard
Sunil Narine
Carlos Brathwaite
Jerome Taylor
did not play... all 1st XI guys in the squad that was picked.
only good thing is that the spinners Benn and Motie didn't do bad.
The reality is that the players in the Barbados team: Phillips, Chase, Stoute,Brooks,Hope, Mayers are just as good as those in that WI team.
In reply to analyst-kid
Can't argue with you sir...I think Stoute is a good future ODI player
In reply to goliath
I don't like Stoute as a captain at all. Check and see Kyle Mayers the LEADING ALLROUNDER of the last Nagico 50OVERS TOURNAMENT was not bowled!
Stoute does that all the time...he would stifle all the allrounders of his type in a side!
In reply to analyst-kid
No they are not. One good song does not make a calypsonian.
In reply to nick2020
Bro only Darren Bravo and arguably Ramdin based on the consistency you mentioned would be ahead of these Bajan players.
At one day level Charles,Fletcher,Samuels and Carter are all inconsistent performers of late.
In reply to anthonyp
Motie had a nice quiet spell
In reply to nick2020
just a fete match, no need to get undies soiled
In reply to analyst-kid
Yup. The West Indies team should really be Barbados
In reply to imusic
not saying that at all...I was merely comparing the WI players in that side with the Bajan players. I stated Darren Bravo and Ramdin might very well be ahead of the entire pack.
In reply to analyst-kid
The West Indies team should comprise the best players regardless of territory no?
A ODI team looking like this
K Brathwaite
D Smith
S Hope
R Chase
J Carter
S Dowrich
C Brathwaite
J Holder - capt
S Benn
K Roach
M Cummings
would be AT LEAST as good as any other West Indies combination no?
In reply to imusic
again I am referring to THAT WI team that played the Barbados Select XI.
however of that team you put I only see FIVE who I deem eligible for a ODI team namely
Brathwaite
Dowrich
Brathwaite
Holder
Benn
...based on his Nagico performance I would include Mayers.
My WI team
Charles
Brathwaite
Bravo
Samuels
Holder
Pollard
Ramdin
Brathwaite
Narine
Benn
Taylor
Fletcher and Charles deserve their play after a great T20 WC but Kraigg ave 70+ in Nagico would force his way in.
In reply to analyst-kid
Look at that team, where are the middle order batting, or your main bowlers?
This is not T20 cricket, man stick to music.
Let me just say, I have a problem with players we call all-rounders in the region, none of them can be consider to batman or bowlers.
Taylor is below average
Benn is hit or miss
Narine can be call at anytime
Who you're left with, Carlos, Jason and Powell, three guys that is not close to being one good bowler, give me a iffing break.
Teams need bowlers and batsman, you team lack both.
In reply to openning
How many regional batsmen and bowlers would you consider "batsman and bowlers"?
Allyuh want all rounders to make same or more runs than those whose only job is to make runs. Similarly. Allyuh want all rounders to take same or more wickets than those whose only job is to take wickets
And to make it even more comical, Allyuh want wicketkeepers to make same or more runs than those who selected only to score runs.
In reply to imusic
Base on regional standards quite a few
Not many of them are all-rounders.
In reply to tc1
I would have bet every last cent I had imusic woulda come with his Bajan All Star talk.
If it was 2:1 odds I would have $134.88 right now.
In reply to imusic
I never would had selected Sammy, Bravo, Pollard, Holder, Russell in any 50 overs or test team
I like Ramdin as keeper, Gayle still better than most, so he will make my team in all format.
In reply to nick2020
Yuh gat too much money...I hope imusic realize dat his team need a new coach also...bye bye Simmons....Floyd Reifer would be a good coach!

In reply to WestDem
I am not touching Gayle bat, he and Tino, must have had a few shots with their buddies, prior to writing.
In reply to openning
Tino have a big mouth and Gayle have a big bat....what a perfect pair!!!
In reply to nick2020
imusicman is a noted bim hater , he is being sarcastic

In reply to imusic
You do as if they have no LO history.
In reply to Commie
If they so bad....perform better than them to be selected.
In reply to imusic
In reply to imusic
The answer is NO.
There is no reason to keep selecting someone like Pollard with his 24 average because he somehow earned the right to keep it there.
Give alternate players a real opportunity to establish themselves.
All those guys had close to over 100 matches to be shit.
In reply to tc1
We have been drowning in his sarcasm since de team went from 75% Trini to sometimes 1%.
The sunglasses are to hide the tears.
In reply to openning
Bossman, how can you seriously pick Gayle? Don't you think it's time to move on and groom someone? Gayle can't run, or just refuses to, and you have to hide him in the field for 50 overs.
In reply to nick2020
yes indeed, he is too obvious
In reply to imusic
K Brathwaite

In reply to Devin
In reply to cherri
Mayers or Stoute for Roach in that Bajan team though.
