Russell continues to regain his form that had made him the winnest cricketer for two years prior to his absence from the game, with a brillant century to save the Scorpions. In his previous match he had a knock of 51 not out, so the form seems to be coming back.

Match-winning Century from Andre Russell
In reply to Slipfeeler
agree 100..glad to see him back
In reply to SirGarny
Now I think match winning not saving.
In reply to Slipfeeler
Now...if we can just get the rest of the Jamaican bats to all make meaningful contributions...
yesterday we had 3 front line batsmen make a total of 5 runs....you can't beat the top teams batting like that
In reply to SirGarny
Big bats are not performing consistently.
In reply to Slipfeeler
The rest Russell got due to the ban was a blessing in disguise...looks like his body is rested and fully healed....it will be murder in the international circuit....he will be WI trump card if we are to qualify for the WC
What is Russell's captaincy potential?
As I see it...only Shai Hope, Evin Lewis and Andre Russell are sure picks and real stars in WI ODIs....Gayle is always iffy because of injury these days.
Make him cappo....he will command the respect in the team...and could bring out the best in the others
In reply to Narper... make him cappo Yaad first, lets see if this is true at that level, then graduate him.
In reply to Narper
Russell has probably set his sight at maximizing his potential in t20
and nothing more
In reply to doosra
He can do both...ODI/T20s for WI and T20 circuit
In reply to Narper
Can't see Russell "committing" to CWI in order to be appointed chief ass kisser aka captain
In reply to Narper
If Russell, Lewis, Chase, Daddy Samuels, Braithwaite, Walton, Cottrrell and Mohammed are in form, we should have no problem winning regardless of who is the captain.
In reply to Slipfeeler... book marked.
In reply to natty_forever
By the same token Hope, Rovman, Warrican, Miller and Dowrich are preparing well.
In reply to Narper
He's in high demand for the world wide T20 tournaments so Windies captaincy should be out of the question.....
don't know of anyone beating down the door for Jason Holder's T20 services so leave him as the 1-day captain..
In reply to SirGarny
CWI is allowing the current WI T20I cappo Carlos Brathwaite to play T20s on the international circuit.
In reply to DIEHARD
He does not have to be an ass kisser
In reply to Narper
Well thats how all WI skippers in the past 10 years have been appointed, or at least..had job security
In reply to DIEHARD
NONE of those could command a place in the side like Russell can...and that is why I am saying his teammates will be solidly behind him....and NO ONE needs to be fired to create clear path to the cappoship
In reply to Narper
Back to back centuries from Russell, picking up from his performance prior to his absence from the game as the winnest cricketer in the world at that time.
