Does the WI team do analysis???

Cuz I'm watching WI bowlers bowl at Cook's pads all morning.

Everyone in world cricket knows he's not as strong outside off and these guys are just bowling on middle all morning.

If you can't get 6 balls outside off stump at Cook then why are you bowling. rolleyes

knowing what to do and doing is not the same

you've identified the problem. With all the specialists working for CWI would you advise them to identify and try to solve problems or should they satisfy their contract conditions and move on to another lucrative engagement if contract is not renewed.

In other words would you count cows or drink milk?

Well, if I was the coach an we analyzed how to bowl at a guy and you you couldn't get it done.

I would have to get different bowlers.

If you're not capable of getting the job done move on and let someone else do it.

Yes and Goldilocks and The Tree Bears...

But in the real world someone with a mortgage and a family to support may not think like a typical fan.

That's why boards do performance reviews.

If u can't get it done, you go.

Simple.

Obviously Morpheus never encountered the BOOT LICKERS FROM CARIBBEAN.

Else he would have added a pre-question to that Quote -- "Do you know you have to WALK?" big grin

I think they don't want to bowl on his pads but are incapable of making the ball touch down just outside off. So sad I cannot watch this it is too painful.

If you can't put the ball where you want it more often than not... you are not a bowler!

It does not matter what analysis is done. I have said for years that the problem with the crop of players from around 2000 is that they have NO brain. To quote one of our great commentators - they are headless.
Totally indisciplined and incapable to either bowling or batting to a plan. Many captains, going back to Hooper, have been blamed for field placings etc but no one can set a field to West Indian bowlers.
