This is so pitiful

Against a lowly team like Zim. ...WI batting at less than 2 runs an over for the most part...move from 174/4 to 219 with a top order bat not out on 90....amazing. Now Zim starts and is scoring at near 4 an over......and u telling me u don't need Lewis or Gayle?

When your entire middle order and tail crumbles for under 40 runs yet still a top order batsman was there to carry the score and hold up one end.....that is pitiful. It also shows despite your many losses you are underestimating your opponent. WI deserve to lose from here.

You cannot be defensive or be a survivor and expect to grow.
Powell and Kraigg let the bowlers dominate, Kyle should be on the bench, as his selection was base on him opening for T&T
I cannot comment on the other batsman, because I did not see them bat.

Let's blame the BIG IDIOT Cameron for scheduling this tour at this time knowing fully well that Lewis and Gayle not available.

This is a team with three batsmen low on confidence with the other two batsmen all gritty defensive players in Brathwaite and Hope. There is a great need for positive batsmen like Gayle and Lewis. Powell,Hope and Dowrich are all positive players but they are lacking in confidence. Kyle and Dowrich should have been back in the WI preparing for the four day tournament and regaining their confidence.

Justice for brooks, mayers and carter!

Here I am bemoaning the fact that a WI team batting is pitiful and you keep sarcastically referring to a Bajan agenda when Trinidad has no batting stars in test cricket of any merit to suggest. I suggested Lewis because he is a positive player which is needed but the reality is Shai Hope is the leading WI batting in tests and ODIs and so far he is unchallenged. A Bajan Combined School team would do well against this Wi team with all these insecure batsmen.
