Carlos?

In reply to Str8_Drive

Ashley forking Nurse!! Lol I'm DEAD!!!

good to see carlos on the team

In reply to Str8_Drive

Isn't that Browne's team?

Lol lol lol

Big loud stewps KMT New panel same squad Angel is the only real addition ...

In reply to FuzzyWuzzy

Yuh beat me to it Fuzzy. They could have saved some money by keeping the old panel

same team as expected

Jimmy says no changes to the squad unless injury.

Good team

In reply to navindesigns

He better tek dis chance and make it count when called upon

Robert, Guyana is not an island

Russell assured dem he will be fit for WC

Keemmo Paul's omission is a surprise.

Gabriel replaces Aljo

Once you are playing regional cricket and international cricket you are eligible for selection. I hope that by international cricket Haynes is referring to international T20 leagues and not playing for WI

Good squad I have a little problem with Carlos and a big problem with Ashley Nurse. Time will tell.

In reply to Headley

Who would you have picked instead of Carlos and Nurse?

In reply to DIEHARD

should be there instead of Carlos

In reply to positiveg

the pressure is on him and i think he knows that

Is Keemo hurt?

Narines said he would love to play for WI ......BUT

Narine has an injured finger and not capable of bowling 10 overs

I like Narine's answer why he nah play

In reply to Headley

Fabian Allen as well. He is good for T20, but I don't see what he has done to maintain an ODI selection.

Cornwall, Keemo Paul and anybody else and this team would have been stronger.

In reply to navindesigns

he better lol

In reply to DIEHARD

still cussing Browne, the selection of players seem to the same.

In reply to Narper

Wasn't that a stupid answer by the chief selector? Russell is currently actively involved in in playing cricket so how can he give such an advance assurance?

I would think that would be determined by medicals all players have to undertake ....

In reply to positiveg

Narine's middle finger unable to bend..always staying up!

In reply to Walco

Um done arready

In reply to DIEHARD
hoss.......fatboy nurse is as bad a pick as if cornwall was picked. Nurse as useful as bishoo and as fit as dwayne leverock. Carlos cant make the first team of any side he plays for save barbados and patriots. he must be a really good kiss up

In reply to Khaga

The finger bends to the max when grabbing dem IPL checks ....

In reply to tc1

Boss it looks like Pollard is being victimized by another selection panel ... and Big Bravo too.

Notable Omissions

Narine
Bishoo
Paul
John Campbell
Simmons
Pollard

In reply to Khaga

Another bullshit excuse from Narine. Bottom line is that he knows he will be called for pelting if he bowls again in international cricket ...

In reply to Str8_Drive

Only omission i want there is Keemo, he should be there.

Squad:
1.Jason Holder (c),
2.Andre Russell,
3.Ashley Nurse,
4.Carlos Brathwaite,
5.Chris Gayle,
6.Darren Bravo,
7.Evin Lewis,
8.Fabian Allen,
9.Kemar Roach,
10. Nicholas Pooran,
11. Oshane Thomas,
12.Shai Hope,
13. Shannon Gabriel,
14. Sheldon Cottrell,
15. Shimron Hetmyer

In reply to Walco

What is more disappointing is that the IPL is condoning this shyte ....

In reply to Walco

Paul for Nurse anyday. I like Carlos so it's not a major issue. Three or four wickets and a good 50 could solve my Carlos problem.

Ashley 'Fattas' Nurse! is he the skipper 'little' night nurse?

In reply to Walco


I made the same point to you last week, but was unable to follow up to your question as I was travelling.
Haynes'selections are identical to Browne, yet he (browne)was cussed as having selected his hommies, guess what Haynes selected Browne's hommies.
the mop will blame reifer and holder

In reply to Raggs

No, he is Jimmy Adams

In reply to FuzzyWuzzy


Bad day for the whiners (Tits) of WI, none of their superstars were selected.

In reply to tc1

Not quite. Maybe Keemo Paul would have still been there. Mistake to exclude him in my book. Curious to see who will bowl the death overs in this line up.

In reply to Headley

Agreed..I had Carlos in my inital squad before i was made to believe Big Bravo and Pollard were likely to be selected, and i thought the squad could benefit from their experince and skills.

And then i was torn between Powell and Carlos. No complaints here for me re Carlos.

Carlos earned his call up in that ODI tour, it should have been Paul over Nurse for me.

So they went with Thomas, Gabriel, Nurse and Carlos over Paul, Pollard, Bravo and Powell, I can live with Thomas and Carlos ....not sold on Gabriel..Nurse..makes me sick to my stomach

In reply to DIEHARD
The last series, Nurse was not quite fit but seeiing him perform locally in the last couple of weeks, I'm sure he will surprise a lot of you when he performs in the World Cup...watch and see

In reply to DIEHARD

That make absolutely no sense.
Paul vs Holder, Carlos or Russell, would had been, a better comparison.
You select teams, base on position, not fitting names into a slot, for namesake.

In reply to Khaga

Was he attempting to give the Selectors and CWI the middle finger salute instead of mooning them?

In reply to openning
They needed an offie and a leggie, but since Bishoo is not in form they went with the left arm spinner that could bat a bit in Allen.

In reply to Headley

I am a huge Paul fan, but he would have to replace Carlos in that squad. We will need spinners in England, especially if Angel plays. Otherwise Holder will have to sit out a few games for slow over rate

In reply to Bestian
The majority of the squad played against England, a few months ago, so I have no problem with the team selected

In reply to openning
Agreed....So why did we need to hastily change the selectors again?

In reply to Kay unless injuries in the past were planned.

In reply to Bestian

Nurse is never fit bro

In reply to Bestian

Browne had to go, too many fans had problems with his selections.

In reply to openning

Yet the new selectors followed the same blueprint.

In reply to openning

Bishoo and Campbell are the only ones to miss out.

Neither really impressed against England in the ODI series.

In reply to Str8_Drive


No spin starting XI

Gayle
Lewis
Bravo
Hope
Hetmeyer
Pooran
Holder
Russel
Roach
Cotterel
Gabriel

In reply to Bestian

The selecting panel had very little time, to make wholesale changes to the team.
Brathwaite performance against England, got him selected ahead of Paul.
The spinners that is giving Nurse a run are Cornwall and Pierre.
Neither of them played International ODI cricket, as far as I know.

In reply to WIForever

Too early to say no spinner.

Depends on the weather in Nottingham on May 31.

If it's overcast or drizzling, then I will agree with you.

If it's sunny one of Nurse or Allen should play.

In reply to WIForever

The previous selection panel would often go with Nurse over Pooran...the fact Nurse is even selected makes me think that will continue, with the long tail

Russel at 6 followed by Holder, Nurse, and then Roach Cotterel and Gabriel

In reply to DIEHARD

This is not a test series, I cannot see Russell, Holder, Roach, Cottterel and Gabriel in any playing X1.

In reply to anthonyp Feel the same way.

Don't worry about Nurse and others who you all think shouldn't be there,we have 2 of the best match winners in our team in Russell and Gayle,so DON'T BLOODY WORRY,the Soljaboy can also cause early damage to opposition opening batsmen and is no mug later in the innings with the old ball.

In reply to Khaga

In reply to Walco

Huh? Didn't big bravo retire?

I dont have a problem with nurse being there as I cant see who would be better than him apart from Narine.
I would have gone with paul over Braithwaite but in the end it might be six of one and half dozen of the other.
Sorry to see the Icon missing!!

In reply to Kay

onli sport dis ya happens eh..moons ago dem fi ban crook elbow...

In reply to gvenkat
Dem seh dem contact all players and all ah dem were available, even Sammy

In reply to openning

Some of y'all just post cos unu have internet!!!!

It's against the rules of the game for Holder, Paul, Carlos AND Russell to be in the squad?

They could play all 4 if they wanted of leave one on the bench or none at all.
After you pick your XI the 4 left can be anything, so, explain again why Paul could not be the man on the bench instead of Nurse, of even in the XI instead of Nurse?

Based on your feelings

The selectors told u how many " all rounders" they planned on picking?

The squad has to have more than one spinner?

I don't understand your statement

I have no problem with this team, one of the most fairly selected in a while! Keemo not competing with Nurse but Holder, Carlos and Andre. He young and would mek the next WC!

In reply to openning

The Last ODI against England all XI did not bat, but the listed line up was ,starting at 6:

Holder
Brathwaite
Nurse
Bishoo
Cotterel
Thomas

Now..seeing that Bishoo is not there,..if they turn up on the morning of the match and see heavy cloud cover, do you select Allen just so you can say you playing two spinners? Or do you unleash pace like fya on dem skunt!!!

In reply to WestDem

It is that crazy to y'all that he could also play in the same XI instead of Nurse, take his place in the last ODI XI put on the park by WI?
Allen replacing Bishoo from that line up, for me it is actually the better line up, only play one spinner, Allen and replace Nurse with Paul

In reply to Str8_Drive

Apart from Gayle, Lewis and Russell, batting maybe challenging for WI, we really needed the experience of Big Bravo, Pollard and bowler Narine, they could make a wealth of difference.

I don't see Russell being able to bowl a ful quota of 10 overs, so we'll need the extra bowler/allrounder.

In reply to Seechy

Russell will bat 6, a and give a few overs.

The bowling will come from 7-11
