So conveniently makes himself available before every World Cup and then vanishes conveniently to okay for everyone except the west indies
Im surprised how shameless these guys can be to even start talking in the media about how committed they are to West Indies cricket etc etc 2 months before a global tournament
Seriously

In reply to brians_da_best

In reply to doosra
Yeah but this time around he was the one making the most noise
In reply to brians_da_best
well....he has played roles in two world cup triumphs......but allyuh rell ungrateful so it does not surprise me that you guys abuse him this way
In reply to Jumpstart
We are gratefull. Just do not believe hecan do it a third time.
In reply to brians_da_best
I am not glad. He is just over the hill and not warrant selection. New blood needed.
Why are we posting negative comments about Russell
Let's thank him for his service to CWI cricket.
He is in the latter stages of his career.
I am content just to read about Russell's exploits in T20 leagues. That is all it is really, league cricket. Nowhere near the standard of international cricket and neither is he. I felt when he was young that he had the potential to be the next super allrounder from the WI and possibly second only to Sobers but he chose his way and hopefully has got what he wanted from that way. His WI days are long done as far as I am concerned.

He chose a path and Im sure was rewarded well during his journey. I dont like it when these guys swing by three months before a global tournament about how playing for West Indies is their priority and how they want to play for the Caribbean people etc.
Its a sham and Im glad this new selector isnt falling for it. Even Simmons called out Russell
In reply to VoopsandOut
are you speaking about Russell, don't ever use Russell and Sobers in the same sentence, Russell was never a good international player. his club cricket returns are avg in bowling and batting, he is an outstanding fielder. Nothing more.

He is not the only one. Wont be the first, wont be the last. He is only the latest...

Russell is not the only one who used the WI when the T20i and ODI WC are on the horizon.
Russell, the boundary runner
Narine, the pelter
Rampaul, the overweight Bessie
I would pick Marlon Samuels if he were available because he doesn't bullshit anyone, and he is a reliable batsman in any situation.
I am satisfied that Dessie and Simmons pulled the plug on them once and for all.
Those three above can not leave peacefully like others.
In reply to TheTrail
Russell never had an impact in WC or international games, Samuels , Gayle and big Bravo had a greater impact in such games.
The pelter knows he don't want to be picked, he just running a scam.

with the exception of marlon, all these guys were chased away by the CWI......the only board in the world that is stupid enough to exile their best players
