Should be the designated wicketkeeper batsman in T20s. Maybe even In Odis

He proving that now,

Maybe we will see a change.

I was all for Randum but he stank up de place.

Shai can concentrate on batting in ODI.

Pooran to keep.

Did you see the innovation?

Reverse/switch hits.

Young man looked relaxed.

But I think the presence of Bravo assisted,

Bravo looking settled.

I think he is ready for a comeback.

Better players available for selection.

Time for selectars to wake de fack up.

People now waking up to what I been saying. Pooran should play all ODIs and T20 games for West Indies. The same faith given to Shai Hope should be bestowed upon Pooran. Pooran is a serious talent. Man just so free flowing. Our chance to find a Gilchrist type player. We can't afford to lose that luxury.

That is exactly what we lacked in our previous games. No innovation or positivity.

Good to see today tho

Can't blame him, after the way he was treated by CWI

This is Jen's post on the selectors

First, Darren Bravo in T20 but not tests where he has a better record - and his record overseas is way way better than his career average.

Ambris favoured in tests over ODI's, where he is much more accomplished in the limited format.

Powell x 2, Hemraj, Samuels not scoring much runs in the ODI leg yet your one extra batsman on the bench can't get a game. Hemraj dropped for the final ODI and replaced with a bowler when you struggling to make runs. Hemraj also dropped instead of Ravmon when he looked more likely to score more runs than Ravmon. Ravmon has a glaring weakness against spin and still played all 5 games.

McCoy dropped for the 4th ODI - (he was injured for the other games going forward).

Shai Hope called up as a replacement and played before more accomplished T20 players in Rutherford and Pooran.

The T20 team taking blows in the first 2 game, you have Hope, Ramdin not making any significant contribution yet Rutherford can't get a game?

No specialist openers selected for the T20 leg!!

They all need to be FIRED!!!!

Is the poorest set a decisions I ever see in a tour!!
