I like the Permaul pick but not 3 spinners

lets see how this will go down

we are missing a batsman who can bowl a few tight ones like Marlon for e.g.

Carter, wouldn't call his bowling tight though. Ideally you want 1 batsman who can bowl medium and one who can bowl spin.

A 50 lbs lighter Cornwall, will fit well in this ODI team. lol lol

Already have JMo

In selecting Permaul, I would have reluctantly benched Bishoo to accommodate Rovman...Just too much spin as is.

But i guess the pacers have been found wanting

I'd also gamble on Rovman as a death overs bowler.

Can't be any worse than Carter and Holder.

I agree

Rovman and Permaul in and Bishoo and a pacer out

that will strengthen the batting

Jmo a good prospect.

Need some more bowling under his belt and to be used better.

I forget abuot carter.

seems like we have the resources. we just need a skipper who can utilize them

Oh my how times have changed there was a time when one spinner found it difficult to make the team now 3 on the team.

I would also have gone with Cummins over Gabriel..just cos..Gabriel at 50 % is not as dangerous a proposition..and we'll need him for the tests.

I'm no fan of Cummings based on what i've seen but...I am concerned about Gabriel's fitness.

How can I become a WI selector ? lol

We all saw Powell batting in the last T20 against the young spinner, you actually want to see him in this final?

Zo had 2 catches put down off his bowling. Holder cant bowl at the death with all his experience compared to Zo. Gabriel still is missing that special delivery, yorker, away swinger etc. Let them keep dropping Zo after one match each series and expect him to get better.

They obviously enjoyed that Deer in a headlight look from Rovman the great.

In reply to Scar

to be honest I dont mind Zo not playing all the ODIs as long as they pick him in the test matches

I hope they are talking to him and not messing with his confidence
