I doh like Samuels but he is one of the most successful batsmen in the CPL ever.
Allyuh cappo and coach was f..ing over the man batting him all over the place.
He is a #3 and maybe a #4 sometimes but mostly a #3 and his successes should've given him that position ahead of shithounds like Akmal, unproven CPL performer Ryder and unfit/out of form Watto.

Give him a run at 3 and he will win u matches, stats show that.

Meanwhile u have the shittest cappo around, has the best squad yet 5 losses in 5!

Samuels is an inconsistent shitehound. Drop he skunt now. Cappo averaging tops with the bat with a brilliant s/r and he has taken the responsibility and LED FROM THE FRONT. The other Stars batsmen: Samuels, Akmal, Watson and Ryder have failed to show up. No fault of the greatest Captain on earth or Mars.

BTW we were 1-5 last season and if it is anyone who could turn this team around it is DJGS.

Samuels to Sangakkara, out Caught by McClenaghan!! What a massive wicket this is. You can tell by the celebrations of the St Lucia players, just how much this means. Sangakkara slog-sweeps a full delivery and hits it straight to deep mid-wicket. He's unhappy with himself. May have picked the wrong ball for the shot, as it seemed to be a touch too full for it.

Sangakkara c McClenaghan b Samuels 13(10) [4s-2]

Voicy the problem is that Sammy simply doesn't have a very good team. The bowling in particular is very limited. He has exactly two top class bowlers: JT and Shilly, and one decent quality bowler in Mcclenaghan. The rest of them put together don't equal 1 bowler. And that being the case, it doesn't help that his own bowling has fallen off as well. The batting also has similar concerns, but it's in the field where they will probably end up losing a game. It's too much of an uphill battle...

The leading runscorers for St Lucia Stars....

1) Fletcher - 228
2) Sammy - 123
3) Samuels - 109
4) Charles - 105

It seems Yardies are held to a higher standard....
cool
These are the batsmen who've not performed:

5) Mayers - 59
6) Cornwall - 47
7) Watson - 45
cool Ryder - 40
9) Akmal - 29

Funny how you didn't start a thread calling for the dropping of Akmal....

BTW, congrats to the new vice-captain.
big grin
