Surely Carty would be a better investment? Brooks is 34 and I don't see him continue for too long
We need to blood some youngsters in.

Why are we playing Brooks
In reply to brians_da_bestthen carty should start scoring runs because he has done nothing to suggest he should be a automatic starter.
In reply to velo
then why take him to SA to warm the bench when he could have played a crucial first class match for his team here. it seems pretty obvious to me that the selection policy is to go for experience so after Brooks would be Chase and Carty was never going to get a match. A shortage of FC cricket and yet you waste one of your better players in this way.
In reply to brians_da_best
Agreed. At 34 Brooks is a wasted investment.

Not so fast, the WI needs to win a few games and create a winning culture first. Brooks is a good player who had a bad game.
In reply to Dukes
Kind sir, please tell me who coined that term. It is a work of genius -- much better that big aunty

the legendary Larr Pullo
In reply to velo
I don't get why you all are clamoring for Carty to play white ball cricket, looking at him bat, I think he is more suited for test cricket
In reply to Walco
As Doosra pointed out it was none other than Larr Pullo better known for his immaculate whites when he used to play the game bowling his Right arm OPTIMISTICS.
In reply to brians_da_best
cuz by WI standards, he has a standout 33 ODI average.
Who to put instead?
In reply to VIX
Brooks makes runs against the Afghanistans and Zimbabwes of cricket.
Brians da best is right. Why continue with Brooks. We dont know what we cannot do. Give a youth like Carty a chance man.
In reply to imusic
why do you think that is a problem for Vix? He was here not so long ago telling me how great Kesrick Williams was tho his success was against minnows?
In reply to imusic
This is rich coming from the Tits who are crying for the return of 35 year old concussion patient Darren Michael Bravo



In reply to imusic
EVERYBODY will eventually get a chance
In reply to doosra
The Guyana-great Beaton cyar tie Kesrick's shoelaces
In reply to VIX
The only person calling for Beaton to play International cricket is Michael B!!!!!!!!!
In reply to bird
The thing is the Ozzies blood most players in ODIs before going onto test. Worked tremendously well during their run at the top. Therefore, Hope has put his hand up. See anyone else?
In reply to imusic... before we do (Carty), maybe we need to look at what Brooks did to be selected. Has Carty done the same or better? Reason being if a players has not done better than Brooks at the FC level then he should not be selected as we now know that players at that level will not make it at the higher level. This may have the selection list empty, hence we stay with these bunch of "underachievers" and focus on the A team candidates and work on getting their average above Brooks'?
