Should be in contention for place in the Test side, though not as captain.

Seems like they finish with Stoute who would be stronger in this format than the List A one.


Batting looks thin again....Four specialist bats...two allrounders in Greaves and Springer, wkpr Walcott Haydn Walsh Jr and Holder Harding and Cummins.

Looking for Springer to really step up. SHould be batting at 3 or 4. Too much talent to let lag in the bottom of the order. One of the few who can keep the scoring rate moving. Actually Greaves is pretty good with the bat also. Openners have to set the table because Brooks is the only constant there.

Watch for Carter, he has been among the runs lately, I am surprise with the selection of Anthony Alleyne, who was dropped last regional.

Thanks for the update.

Just seen he's playing in the same league as Parchment & Ingram.

Thats why Point get so excited when he speak of Peters, coaching in Australia, not knowing guys have moved on from coaching and playing league cricket in England, to Australia.

 
analyst-kid 2018-11-28 17:54:20 

Nurse, Warrican and Chase away.

Williams still with Jamaica?

Benn probably not too keen

Where is the upcoming young Bajan spinners? None around to partner Haydn Walsh Jr?

Can you name 3 elite players per team in the Elite and First division, base solely on runs scored and wickets taken?
Any bowler can get wickets in the BCA today, and the average batsman can score runs at times.
The only player I have an eye on is Springer, he has shown the world his talent.
I want to see him in the eleven, and batting at either four or five.

 
TheTrail 2018-11-28 19:04:46 

This is the batsman to watch, Shayne Moseley.

In two years time, he should be ready to partner Kraigg Brathwaite.

 
WICFan 2018-11-28 19:11:59 

In reply to TheTrail

If he puts runs on the board in the early rounds he might be partnering Kraigg in a couple of months against England.

 
WICFan 2018-11-28 19:18:10 

In reply to openning

Will he bat ahead of Jones or Kirton?

I'm expecting the top 4 to be Alleyne, Moseley, Carter & Brooks.

In reply to WICFan
He should bat at four, Carter or Brooks at five, giving him the opportunity to bat with two senior players.

Moseley and Kraigg batting together will keep fans away from cricket.

Bro, a close friend who returned to Bim after finishing his doctorate, seeing him on Tv, and questioning his bs, on what he was telling the people, said to me, I would never survive in Barbados.
I call it as I see it, Kraigg cannot get my vote, until his batting improve.

You still living in the bat and ball era.
Where is the spin bowling coach, a fielding coach and maybe a batting coach, you making a joke of professional cricket.

Good to see Springer and Greaves in the Bdos team.

You seem to be uptodate with every thing cricket in the BCA, so help me out here;
The Pride drafted these guys in May 2018;

Barbados Pride: Anthony Alleyne, Shamarh Brooks, Jonathan Carter, Dominic Drakes, Justin Greaves, Keon Harding, Chemar Holder, Shayne Moseley, Shamar Springer, Haydn Walsh Jr*
Draft picks – Marquino Mindley, Kevin Stoute, Aaron Jones, Tevyn Walcott, Mario Rampersaud

Another 10-15 males also have local contracts.
With Drakes injury should Stoute or Mindley not replace him?
What fool the public by having old fashion trial, when it is not a professional draft system?
PCL draft completed as tournaments approach
