I don't even know why Taylor is playing T20s. He was never good in this format. Is it by association with the "senior players"? Let him be a part of the test bowling group and rotate him. He's usually good for one good game a series so don't over do it. He needs to not play back to back games to avoid injury so he bowls within himself ala takes break on the field.

I was always a big Jerome fan. The truth of the matter is that since that magical match winning spell against England, he has been lets say ordinary. Your observations are good ones, i saw him against Guyana where he was sharp and swung it late with pace. He was not able to repeat that effort the rest of the competition.

Is this we come to ? We now playing schoolboy cricket.
I remember when New Zealand was an emerging team that everbody used to beat then it was Sri Lanka then Bangladesh. To avoid being classed an emerging team we have resorted to playing countries without any history of cricket.

Examine WI cricket carefully and you will see that they are in a transitional period with very few or no experienced players and a whole set of emerging youngsters.

In the ODI format however we are piss poor. We really have to look at players like Ambris,Cornwall,King,Brooks,Reifer and Primus to expose and hope that Mohammed and Hope develop into world class players.

Our bowling however is not as bad...Gabriel,Joseph,Holder,Roach,Beaton,Cummins,Bishoo,Narine,Nurse and Jacobs ALL come with better stats and promise than our batsmen do.

Didn't know they were playing until I read this board this morning

I have never seen someone toss around the term 'world class' as loosely as you do. The sad thing is that it usually pertains to our players. It might be advisable to wait until we actually produce those types of players.
