Is Permaul ODI match fit?

Reds Perreira is asking?

When did he know he was in the squad?

Did he expect to be in the starting XI? After all WI never plays 3 spinners

He in the squad isn't he?

He needs to be ready to play when called upon. Period.

Anything less is unacceptable.

Was he not practicing and playing regional cricket?
Everyone of these players, just finish playing the Regional Super 50 and the 4-day tournament.
We just don't have the Narine type spinners in the region, that 18 years old youngster, is miles ahead of any spinner in the region.
People wanted to select players from performance in the regional competition, so the selectors selected Lewis, Walton, Powell, Carter.
You cannot win matches with a few batsman scoring runs.

I totally agree.

but did he expect to play at all...he was selected for the T20I squad but didn't play....he missed the Guyana 4 day matches...when last did he play any cricket?

Permaul should not expect another ODI ever...he blew it big time.

So how else are you going to select teams if not on regional performances?

They should be selected to the A team from regional performance.
A continuous performances over 2-3 or an extra-ordinary performance during a regional season, should earn a player an International selection.

The players that earned a selection so far are, Cornwall, Singh.
Mohammed should be in the X111 squad for the test series, I don't think the team need Hope and Dowrich, in the same team, so Dowrich give way to Hope, leaving that slot for a batsman, that bowls.
