Started with just 5 WI players (by my count). Gayle essentially boycotted the tournament.

Bravo & Russell out with injuries, prior to that nothing special performance'wise

Pollard - 4 matches 45 runs

Narine - 3 matches 4 wickets

Badree - 4 matches 4 wickets

Brathwaite on the way to replace Russell

Slim pickings. Especially when the league allows a maximum of 2 overseas players per team.

Overexposure? Burnout?

Our WI T20 stars are aging (aged?).

Where are the young crop of T20 stars?

Lewis is the only one with star quality on the international scene.

The old oak tree theory that was so prevalent here when I joined. That's what happened.

Philo said on the Mason, the guys are not working on their game, they run from one league to another without taking time out, to improve.
That why you seeing the guys not batting

The next CPL, and indeed IPL, will be instructive as to Polly's future.
It's up to him now. The legend, and the past credit all gone.

I would like to se Narine higher up the order but not to open.I've seen Narine take on fast bowlers and put them away with ease,I hope the TT team take note of what the Australians are doing.

cool

Under exposure.

Majority of T20 specialists play domestic tournaments and some play international cricket in between these T20 tournaments.

Not too many of our guys do.
