More proof of the jokiness of the PCL

Looks like only 3 of the top 10 wicket takers in the tournament are fast bowlers...

How those fast bowling points working out?

I should also add that a number of those spinners have been tried at international level..and been found out..in one way or the other..

Fast bowling points on slow, low docile pitches.

As for lack of pacers in the top 10, it's been like that for a while.

But the jokiness is the fact that nothing being done to fix it.

Year after year.. Then u see how our team get bounced out in New Zealand..smh.. embarrassing.

The PCL is just a reflection of the poor state of our four-day cricket. The fact that two players dropped from the WI team, Devon Smith and Denesh Ramdin, top the batting table, is proof that bad as they are, they're better than the younger generation.

Maybe that's why the powers that be won't put them back in international cricket.

It'll show up all parties involved.. Show that the admin hasn't been able to groom replacements and show that the batsmen still not up to international standards..in spite of being head and shoulders above their peers
