This is one of the best team west Indies selected in a long time, looking like you really want to win on not just putting a team on the field.

No I think he will get a chance again but he didn't look mentally ready.

Of course Bravo will start. The stylist Brooks is just being rewarded for years of service. There actually was a time when he could bat and was easy on the eyes. Lately he cant seem to last very long and have difficulty getting it off the square.

Ok... so jog my memory. What has Bravo done different from what you have stated about Brooks recently?

What is Brooks and Campbell doing there?

I agree Brooks should have played test cricket 3 to 4 years ago sometimes you to know how to identify talent.

Bravo has been out of the Test arena for a bit, and was one of our best when he left. With Ambris not taking advantage of his brief run,the door was left open for Bravo to revive his test career and Brooks waiting for his chance.

At this point the one am not liking in the squad is warrican I don't know what they see in him I know bishoo is injured but I would try someone els.

He might be on the bench for the team now has two openers who can spin for many overs, plus Chase.
