That was some of the worst cricket

I have seen us play. I have seen lots of poor displays from us.

some of the worst...but the game against England at Kensington was the worst T20 ever I have seen us play

We were overmatched against England IMHO , today I saw:

Mohammad showing no basic foot movement
Simmons hitting the ball back to the bowler and taking off running
Marlon ..what de hell was that
Walton trying for the umpteenth time trying to hit a good length legbreak out of the ground
Holder swinging to leg when a good straight hit would have cleared the boundary
Badree swinging for the fences when he needed to block the ball and run

54 dot balls in 14 overs

This was just in one innings

We seem to lack some basic cricketing sense too

I expected more from the seasoned players like Simmons, Pollard and Narine because they are well traveled and experienced but they gave us very little.

And btw, medium pacers take few wickets in t20 and we have two in excess of six feet. Holder should not have played ahead of Tayrol and should not even be in the squad..

Why don't you just say today you saw a piss poor coaching .
Does being Australian make him better than Simmons?
Does his color make him smarter than our previous coach?
The team looked clueless.
Thanks to the brainless WICB.

Sumply put...this t20 team has lost its chemistry and is a now a shell of what it once was.

Three world class players are missing
World Boss
Dre Russ
and Champion singer...DJ Bravo

The big problem...the youngsters are not coming tru...to replace the aging warriors

The one with the most potential...screwed himself and is not considered for selection..That is Pooran

Another senior one....cuss Big idiot and is not considered for selection

The cappo who was groomed for years for the job....gained the experience....and was then fired for being honest with the WICB for once

It seems to me.... .we will be defending the T20 world cup with a brand new team....without stars

I watched the highlights of the 3rd T20 and was convinced we cudn win the 4th.

Our main scorer in dat game was not convincing. He ended up off balance after many of the shots he played in dat knock and ah wasn convinced he wud score heavily again.

Ah saw bowlers pumping de air after getting a wicket off a ball dat shud really have gone for 6 and ah didn think we wud contain dem in de next game.

We have plenty work to do
