This man Reifer

is IMO a dangerous player. He has taken four wickets each against Pride and the Scorpions now he is denying the Scorpions a place in the semis.

No rush of blood..he just scores his singles at a rate of 75...to my mind just like Ambris he scores at the same rate and frustrates an opposing team.

must be considered for higher duties

Definitely,could be a better choice than J.Holder in any West Indian team.

I reckon he could make decent ODI player.... not test level though.

He is a left arm bowler which is a good variation for us to have. I agree that he could start out in the shorter formats but if he can become consistent with both bat and ball there is always an opening. He also seems to need to keep his emotions in check as well. It seems as though he lets everything get to him in the field and when he is at the crease.

Refier has been the Jags MVP for my money.

What role would you see him in ?.... genuine all rounder batting at 6 ?... do you think his bowling would be threatening enough at test level ?

Don't get me wrong... I like him but I'm not sure he's test material.

We have had previous players chosen to play tests before,who was definitely not test level,but they were given a chance,the last one I remember was Chandrika.Reifer looks like a capable bat at number 6 or even 7,and his left arm pace could be useful.
