Give Ramdin Back The Gloves

WI cannot win matches with a second rate keeper who keeps gloving chances, allowing batsmen to capitalize.

Just the other day men was singing Dowrich praises.

 
Runs 2017-05-11 15:41:47 

Lol

Chase to Mohammad Abbas, no run, missed stumping as Dowrich gets up way too early. In the end he just pads the ball away into the leg side and concedes a single lol

Chase to Mohammad Abbas, no run, missed stumping as Dowrich gets up way too early. In the end he just pads the ball away into the leg side and the tailender who has dragged his back foot out of the crease looking for a slog can try again

So how come we ranked 8/9 in test/ ODI with the great wk/kp of the past.

The West Indies way, is to criticized the player du jour.
Today was Shane Dowrich day.
He now put in a basket of undesirable, by certain insular fans.

 
mittheimp 2017-05-12 00:17:18 

Dowrich had a bad day. How about supporting him?

 
runout 2017-05-12 00:45:38 

The problem with insu-LARR-ity is that you should not throw stones when you livei a glass house. There was no shortage of condemnation for Ramdin. They mek him graduate as Ramdunce. And now we are asking for support. Different standards or different keepers???
Talk Nah!!!!!!

Most keeping errors that I've seen in a test series and this list doesn't includes leg byes.... or regulation takes he failed to hold on too...



1st Test
77.1
Holder to Asad Shafiq, FOUR, short and down the leg side, Shafiq flicks across the line but doesn't get as much of it as he would like, presenting a glimmer of a chance for a leg-side catch to Dowrich... but the ball doesn't quite carry and he can't get down to it one-handed, the ball hurrying away for four to bring up the Pakistan 200

108.2
Chase to Sarfraz Ahmed, no run, missed stumping by the looks of it. Yes, this squeezes between bat and pad as he looks to work the leg side, the back leg drags out but Dowrich can't gather it

123.4
Gabriel to Misbah-ul-Haq, FOUR, dropped, but a tough one! Slips it down the leg side, Misbah gets a tickle on it and the ball goes underneath the glove of the diving Dowrich...did it carry? Maybe just. Got his glove to it

2nd test


29.5
Joseph to Mohammad Amir, FOUR, edged and gets away from the keeper. This is a tough chance, extremely hard chance. Pushes at this wide ball outside off to drive and gets an outside edge, Dowrich dives to his left but the ball goes between keeper and first slip

3rd test

13.5
Holder to Azhar Ali, FOUR, tickled wide of the keeper. Lucky escape. Definite bat there. Length ball angling in, he look to whip this away but gets a healthy edge. Dowrich couldn't get across despite a dive to his left


30.1
Bishoo to Babar Azam, no run, edged and Dowrich drops it. He dives to his right, but can't cling on to the ball in the rebound either. Perfectly pitched legbreak, slow, starts around off and breaks away. Babar pokes at this turning, bouncing ball. The keeper was just late to react, and hence can't close his hands around it. How costly will the miss prove to be? [b]Regulation catch, just that the keeper was late onto it
[/b]


79.6
Holder to Misbah-ul-Haq, no run, dropped by the wicketkeeper and the West Indies captain is buckled over, the weight of his team's incompetence on his shoulders. How painful must this be? Especially after bowling a peach of a delivery, in line with off stump, and somehow persuading this dead pitch to give him some help, convincing it to make the ball move away. Misbah prods at it, he has to, it's too close to the stumps, gets a thick outside edge, but Dowrich, diving to his right, going at it with one hand, shells it

134.5
Chase to Mohammad Abbas, no run, missed stumping as Dowrich gets up way too early. In the end he just pads the ball away into the leg side and the tailender who has dragged his back foot out of the crease looking for a slog can try again

One sitter yea, Ramdin has kept 500+ deliveries without a bye countless times but Shane Dowrich has made over dozen errors in only 3 test games!

Every innings he misses a min 3 chances...

That's not acceptable cool

 
Fahim 2017-05-12 21:38:06 

Anyone but Ramdin.

That guy stank up the place with his batting.

Dowrich will improve.

 
Starzz 2017-05-13 13:07:07 

In reply to Fahim

He sucked so much in his last two years of tests cricket he scored over 1000 runs averaging 30plus lol

Way worse than the delightful Shai Hope who has had two years as a specialist batsman at no.3/4 to average 19...

Way worse than Dowrich who has made over a dozen errors in last 3 tests...

Way worse than the current team specialists batsmen that cant even average 25 lol

He was so horrible he average higher than windies top 5 batsmen when he bat at no.7/8 lol
