Permaul dealt another hard card by CWI selectors
Nonsense indeed
In reply to Runs
Why?
The argument that favors Permaul over Warrican, based on current performances, is certainly a very good one. Looks a Bajan needs to perform less than others to make the team. Then again, maybe Bajans get automatic handicap points ...
Permaul is still suffering the effects of that now infamous Chris Gayle mauling.
No amount of season topping wickets is going to erase that from the selectors' memory.
Sad.

So then we need to stop playing cricket in the Caribbean if the tournaments are not used to select players. Just pick as you like.

Lol its simple:
Warrican = CWI Retainer = Board already invested in Warrican
In reply to Norm
Warrican is not a Barbadian, he is a Vincentian

Hilarious and spot on. Most of the posters on here don't even deserve a response to their limitless stupidity but this was a great comeback, well done

See Norms post
Permaul > Warrican irrespective of where Warrican is from
Don't matter where he from,he shouldn't be on the team in front of Permaul or Miller.He plays for BIM,if people mistakenly thinks he is Bajan that don't make them fools.

The whole selection process is reticulated. Favoring Barbados and Jamaican players over merit.
High time get rid of Browne.
In reply to Judgement
would Permaul be among the 90 players with lesser contracts?
Warrican hasn't played a Test in over 2 years so he's not the reason Permaul can't make the team. But I do agree that Permaul is my preferred choice because he seems to have a lil more variety.
But. I can also argue that Permaul has the opportunity to play more regional cricket each season than Warrican so he will always have more wickets. Even when I compare their stats.. Warrican is better 44 matches 173 wkts @ 20.61 while Permaul has 93 matches 394 wkts @ 21.78.
So advantage Warrican. Not much between them.

Warrican not on tour so why he playing fewer games?
Ok, ok, ok.....compare Miller, Permaul, Worrycan...who is really & truly windian fan, do it for me!
each player crappier than the other
In reply to CricketFan
What's favoring Jcan players? You forgot that Yard only got one token player on many teams, including Under 19. Not that the batsmen have been impressive to selectors.
In reply to CricketFan
You must be living in a dreamland. Which Jamaican players are those?
And on another note - Do you remember when Miller was topping the FC charts and only got one test?
You people really have short memories.
In reply to Ray123
Thank You for the stats.
The real issue has always been what is the selectors' stance on Permaul, Ramdin, Miller, Devon Smith whether as a group or as individuals since as experienced players they continue to perform very well each season.
As usual is has to be about bashing players who don't pick themselves and especially those who have any association with BIM since apparently Courtney Browne alone has destroyed our cricket.
Do people even care to know who the other selectors are and their input in the selections. They might be surprised to find out who "jukking" their favourite players.
