Weh Brians da Skunt?
Bajans fraid to tour...I don't blame them
In reply to Narper

Not a single one gwine Pakistan. Let de rest mek de “sacrifice”.
If yuh doubt me....even Ramdin get pick. Surprise dem never call Pollard, Narine, Simmo and de Brvos too
Get dem all in one fell swoop.
Explosive
I commend all the players who are going on this tour..Respect!
In reply to Narper
not that it matters much but why not Badree as skipper though..?
Jason Mohammed won't even make the TT t20 team.
In reply to newdread
who gine mek de runs???? 
In reply to newdread
Will there be standard issue bullet proof vests provided to the players?
In reply to VIX
Ramdin is a better skipper than all of them
In reply to Ray123
the 3 wicket keepers
In reply to SnoopDog
Are bullet proof vests also bomb proof?
Looks like de Bajans refused to 25K....
In reply to Narper
yeah but he aint going to be in the side after this series
In reply to Khaga
Indeed. New kit includes maroon coloured pads, helmets, gloves, bats and protective bullet proof vests.
Might just be an explosive series.
In reply to Khaga
Hitler's bunker will be requisitioned and brought on tour.
In reply to SnoopDog
Perfect opportunity to fix a few games...you thing de anti corruption team want to go investigate any claim there?
3 keepers
1 specialist batsman
1 captain who cannot on merit make a West Indies A team in any format of the game.
Oh well. Maybe they really only selected who was willing to go
In reply to WestDem
Hold that thought Bro.
In reply to imusic
u is a winner, if Brown has picked the bajans, he would cry hommism.
In reply to tc1
Wunna foioling only who want to be fooled
Would anybody other than Rovman, Kersrick and Badree be in a full or even near to full strength squad??
Emrit dont learn??
Is joke dis??
Didn't he barely survive a suicide bomber?
In reply to DIEHARD
Man must eat
Players who need to eat a food will likely make the tour if asked
Players who well taken care of have the option to say no. That is if they were asked to tour in the first place.
One can surmise that Players who don’t need tthe money but still decide to tour, t love de cricket
In reply to newdread
Looks like the Star Team Don Hilaire always wanted, totally void of stars.
Oh shoots, the ICON is still there.
sammy love pakistan
why is he not on this team?
In reply to imusic
Players who need to eat a food will likely make the tour if asked
Man must eat a grenade?
In reply to SnoopDog
Obviously PCL and CPL remuneration not enough for certain players not to take the risk
The fact that a player who experienced a bomb attack in the PsL and still going back means player weight pros and cons and the pros won out
Respect to the Bold and the Brave (and hungry).
They have enough time or a flight booked yet to ketch the game starting tomorrow??
Tomorrow is Saturday in Pakistan. About 10 hrs diff.
In reply to newdread... source?
Fletcher
Walton
Samuels
Mohammed (C)
Ramdin (Wk)
Powell
Emrit
Paul
Permaul
Badree
Williams
...decent CPL team but piss poor T20I team. Expect 3-0 romp by a powerful, finely-tuned Pak unit who have recently come off an impressive PSL tournament.
In reply to imusic
I feel your pain cus .
Jason Mohammed as Captain seems appropriate considering his last name, and they are playing in Pakistan. Very astute move that.
Emrit best before date has long gone. What is he doing there...
Permaul and Smith to sit..
We hear a whole lot about exploitation around here. If there was ever a case to be made, then this is it.
Basically CWI went ahead and planned a tour to a high risk location and took advantage of the need of some players to make a living, to field a team.
In reply to XFactor
Imran Khan, Fudadin, who else?
Here is that Brung guy comments :
So No bajans , dem to chicken.
Brung cut out the crap nah, if a bajan was going he was gonna be captain.
Say what, why weren't they picked before Brung.?
Ok coz no bajans wanna go ya pick a muddie ?..ok ah gats ya Brung.
Ok , so we always gat we bajan wicketkeepers to play after this tour. Thanks Brung
vice captain that can't even make the side
better off giving Marlon or even Badree the captaincy.. weakest T20 unit I have seen in a while.. hopefully the guys come good
In reply to Seechy
McCarthy over Permaul
I just don't want to see any bloody "XI for tomorrow's game" threads!
In reply to Windies2017
Weakest team indeed...WI t20 team has gone downhill since Sammy and Management interfetence.
What will the team for the rest of the world game look like? It cah be this pyam pyam team.
Keemo Paul should stay home. He will make the test team. No need to go there at this time.
Typical cwi using the players. Discarded players suddenly worthy of selection because no one else wants to tour
In reply to imusic
We are not taking any bullet for DD and his band.
Why is Emrit going back, he must have good insurance.
I hope they bench both Paul and Permaul... when the pressure cookers start cooking, they will be safe!
Btw - anyone seen or hear from emir recently? 
In reply to Khaga
You have always maintained that, given the apparent love West Indies supporters have for Pakistan, we should tour Pakistan - the tour is on.
In reply to johnjo
So what would you suggest, junjo? The BIG IDIOT (and his supporters) suit up to play, or don't have the WI participate in the tour?
In reply to imusic
The Emrit incident occurred in Afghanistan, not Pakistan. I think there was an explosion outside the stadium. But it shook him up enough that he was on the next plane home.
In reply to Walco
Shhh! He old!
In reply to Walco
Thanks for the correction.
Where is that strong squad that recently been defeated twice by Afganistan
This team will be just fine loosing.
In reply to navindesigns
Dat strong squad is resting.
Dem tired after playing such strong opponents.
It doesn't look like a bad team to me atall..Samuels,Mohammed, Fletcher and Ramdin providing the experience surrounded by the power hitters Walton, McCarthy and Powell.
Bowling led by Badree,Paul Emrit and Williams/Permaul with Powell the 5th bowler...Samuels to throw in some overs. Bowling looks weaky though. Badree and Paul looks the only penetrative bowlers.
