Not sure that answers the question.

He's definitely one for our ODI middle order going forward, more so than Powell IMHO, why no contract for Ambris?

Fabian averages 160 Bowling....and a healthy 11 with the bat.

He deserves a good contract indeed.

Sunil had a developmental contract last year, had he done enough to be granted a central contract?
He must had known he was not going to be contracted, because he was given a regional contract, a few months ago.
Here are his 2018/19 ODI scores.

Ambris sure as hell did more than Allen and Powell in the last year.. How come they got contracts ahead of him?

Can't be a fitness issue either because Oshane Thomas there..

 
Barry 2019-07-09 18:27:42 

Give Ambris 9 contracts
confused

My guess is that Allen, Powell and the fit Thomas are carrrying Bim passports.

I see you're present and accounted for.

What do you have against those 3 that you took the time to 'single them out'?

If Rovman Powell can warrant a contract. Why not Ambris? I am not a fan of Ambris because he cannot bat! What does that say about RPowell..smh

Apparently, these contracts were already decided in March and was already communicated to the franchises, hence Ambris got a volcanoes contract. Now, I believe with recent proceedings, they should have over turned that. Anyhow, all said and done with that, but how can you explain how Allen can get a contract? What has allen done between mar 2018 - mar 2019 to deserve a white ball contract over someone who has a track record in List A cricket?

Bravo getting an all format contract? Big joke!!! What has remember the name done to get contract? Them guys need to wheel and come again.

Apart from that, other guys deserve they contract, no issue.

need I continue to say it we called for change nothing has changed except for the name of those who head up West Indies cricket. As long as we continue to run our game on those we like we will remain at the bottom. From top to bottom none of these guys really care about our cricket.
