As part of Independence Day festivities.

Well deserved young man!

Would not be surprised if Culpepper Island follows suit.

Kraigg deserves respect. Who in current team has better average after 40 tests?

In reply to Curtis

He’s a GOAT

In reply to brians_da_best

I fixed it for you.

Bajans here will know exactly what that means.

Actually Goashemel.

In reply to Curtis

Please help me here Curtis, how many top-order batters on the current team have played 40 Tests?

In reply to JoeGrine

Well there you go. Better yet.

Sir Gary in rear view mirror

In reply to Curtis

I will be charitable here. Your reasoning is bereft of reason.

In reply to JoeGrine

In reply to JoeGrine
Just laugh bro - a classic case of ‘look wah we come to’?

Is it Kraigg's fault he has 12 test centuries, captains WI team, dominated youth cricket?

How does Kraigg's life achievements compare to each of our own successes, using a global lens?

He keeps the lights on.

Coincidentally, Happy Birthday Kraigg!

In reply to Chrissy

Spoken like a true intellect.

Sometimes your reasoning (critical analysis) is beyond the capacity of many here.

Braffit is BOO
Bajans know wha dah mean.
Yardies would say he is a 'Sketal'.

In reply to Curtis

I am willing to bet that you come from a family of fishermen

In reply to Walco

Bro, we can't keep shooting the workers.

From high on the perch of hindsight, with our telescopic rifles.

Braff has tailed off a bit. Yet, still, dedicated servant

In reply to Curtis

Spearing instead of shooting would be a better word choice for a man of the sea such as yourself

In reply to Walco

More like trying to spare KB.

Don't say KB stands for Kyaant Bat.

Looks like we have to give him a send off.

Harrison College producing better cricketers than Combermere these days.

Combermere did have the Three W's.

(Worrell, Walcott, Warrican)

Even if there were a national award called "Order of Bridgetown" (and there is not) I fail to see why it should be an issue for discussion by non-Barbadians. Johnson Charles got a cricket stand and all named after him. Sammy got a whole stadium. If a nation wants to honour their nationals what's it got to do with non-nationals.

In reply to Logic

Tell dem Negative Nellies bro

They love to put down

In reply to Curtis

I think Walcott was College man though

In reply to Curtis

Is that a singular. measurable, standard of performance for one to merit an award? If a worker required to start work at 8 turns up at 7 every day and produces mediocrity should he be awarded as an overall good employee based on his punctuality? What a frightening lowering of standards! I must have a look at Yard's Heroes' Day awards to see if it's a general Caribbean Trend. His Kraigg's award anything close to those received by Bird, Macko, Dessie, CGG an dem?

In reply to Brerzerk

Hey Bro. That's not a real award. I was trying to big up Kraigg. He took some criticism recently. I was thinking if he plays at his best capacity, there's nothing much else that can be done.

On the satirical side, seems like Barbados love to give out these awards. So why not KB.

Phew! Thank God, you got me fooled there. Household big MIA admirers and many would’ve been gutted

In reply to Brerzerk
Man Zerky you should know how Curtis rolls by now. He is a fisherman extraordinaire. He is the satirist of this MB, and you should always approach his threads with extreme caution

Kraigg and Tage average almost identical. Only difference is Kraigg was given 96 tests (86 of which were consecutive), while Tage was only given 10.

In west Indies cricket the Bar is set low in every aspect

In reply to Seechy

Yes. World not ready for 2BSP. Two barrel slow pokes. Opening together.

Tage should have played with more aggression.

While he was dropped, it saved him some cuss.

Kraigg to try alcohol to bat more aggressively.
