Rampaul for the World Cup
In reply to Casper
Rampaul must be there. He was, is and continues to be one of the best fast bowlers in the region.
In reply to Jumpstart
Gentlemen, you might have a problem, rumour has it the team was picked before the CPL.
In reply to Fivestar
Rumor has it that you started this rumor!!!!!!
He should definitely be under consideration
In reply to Dukes
Time will tell how many "new players" who perform in the CPL make it to the World Cup.
In reply to Fivestar
I thought you were smart. In that case they mahe changes
Jokes aside he should be considered
In reply to Fivestar
The fact that people are expressing surprise at how well Rampaul is bowling in this CPL is mind boggling when you realize that he was the leading fast bowler in the 50 over domestic competition earlier this year.People who claim to follow WI cricket and have been writing about WI cricket for more than half-century.
Reminds me of what my father used to talk about wrt people with experience.
He said: Some people have 20 years experience while others have 1 year's experience 20 times.

I agree, Rampaul is bowling well and should definitely be considered for the World Cup. What some people are suggesting is West Indies team selections have been known to raise a few eyebrows.
In reply to Dukes
An interesting discussion occurred recently among some commentators regarding West Indies cricket.
They felt there was bias in team selection from junior level all the way up to the senior level.
Furthermore, they felt there was bias selecting the territorial teams as well as the West Indies representative teams.
The consensus was if you are not a "chosen one" life as a cricketer in the Caribbean is much more difficult.
In reply to Dukes
I heard a rumour that you have been following Windies cricket more diligently and attentively than most others.
Nope.
And then the noise will start.... Too many Trinis and Pollard choosing his friends.
Look at these players,
Evin Lewis
Lendl Simmons
Nicholas Pooran
Akeil Hosein
Sunil Narine
Ravi Rampaul
Khary Pierre
Kieron Pollard
Dwayne Bravo
Who of these can we really be upset about if they are selected? Who do you leave out to avoid the "trini" appearance?
I deliberately left out Dinesh Ramdhin who is excellent behind the stumps and should relieve Nicholas Pooran of that chore and who, buy the way is batting well.
In reply to Ardz
how did Pierre get in there before Walsh?
In reply to Halliwell
Walsh is a trini? Read the context of my post please.
