5 of 7 Bajans should not be on WI ODI team

 
Slipfeeler 2017-03-09 19:15:55 

Only Carter and Nurse should be automatic pick on WI ODI team:

Kraigg Braithwaite is our best Test Opener apart from Gayle so he needs to focus on Test cricket.

Carlos Braithwiate needs to focus on T20 cricket.

Holder is hard to assess but he had a poor ODI tournament, so he needs focus on test matches.

Cummins should not be on the team, since he was not good enough to make Bajan team

S. Hope to be fair to him he really tried hard and I give him much props for that but he is not really an ODI batsman, he should be working in becoming consistent in test cricket.

Did T&T not got rid of Mohammed last year?
Keep off them drugs, your posts are quite dated.

Powell and Lewis now performed in this series without putting up one significant score virtually leaving WI with 2 wickets down every match and they are included in this squad purely on strike rate. Powell avg 20 odd in ODIs!

...and I still need to know on what grounds besides being a non Bajan does Emrit merit a play in front Reifer and Mayers.

Barnwell, you joking right.

... last year. However, Ramdin should be captain.

The mere fact that you had to name 20 players is proof of how difficult a job the selectors face. There are no International proven players in the region as we speak so keep dreaming and playing the blame game.

Nice team, I wanted to give eligible players an opportunity to prove themselves, we need some type of pre-selection prep matches among squad prior to final selection.

We got white-washed by both England and Zimbabwe with the sane team and you want to continue with players who are not suitable for ODI?

Where exactly in my response did i mention anything about who should be selected. Did you not see the huge gap between the teams in every aspect of the game to give you a clue as to how below International standards our players are , keep throwing around different names and hope that the results will change.

So what really is your objection my brother, are you against trying other players?

True but must confessed that he has proven himself both with bat and ball, plus I like his humble attitude.

Excerpt taken from Captain Holder's mouth:

Speaking after the defeat at Kensington Oval, Holder said the team had been found wanting in nearly every department and under pressure now to improve quickly.
“Obviously it wasn’t up to scratch.
