This white ball management is really good.. Sammy excellent man management...Hooper , good batting coach as strategy maker and good bowling coach New Zealander....
Odean Smith in his short career ODI....not bad....can he be transformed into good ODI player...who can bowl 6-7 overs with pace.... hit ball hard... something, South Africa coach Wolmer did to Lance...
Odean Smith after 9 matches average with bat @28 strike rate 167 and with ball@ 26 with economic 5.5

Can West Indies use Odean Smith ala Klusener
Smith needs to improve the head on his shoulders
In reply to Brerzerk
That head on the shoulder job...is Sammy... excellent motivation and management skill...can go a long way to improve a players performance....

He needs to be in the mix.The bowling Coach needs to help him with his action to reduce his over-reliance on brute strength to keep up his pace by smoothing out his run up and his delivery stride to get more rhythm and hence more pace.He also needs to improve his line and length and to be calmer when things are not going his way.
He also needs to improve his flexibility and I think he is too "muscle bound".

what?
can you just pick a name and mek statement?
why not Sobers, or Kallis, or any random
jokes aside
Odean needs to be around. He has shown he can be an enforcer with both bat and ball
let me say again
can Odean play a full FC season to learn to bowl consistently and for longer periods?

I find lots Similarities between the two... Klusener...a clean hitter....used in different positions by Wolmer specially as late order hitter...at 7 or 8..... turning the match on head... specially in 1999 World Cup.....Odean has played 9 matches....his ability to hit is exceptional....played really good cameos against India, Ireland..
Bowling wise.... Klusener was used for 6-8 overs... initially he was very quick...140-145 km ...Odean can take up that speed...
Klusener was basically made what he was by Wolmer... Klusener was moulded....Odean need to be moulded..
Sobers or Kallis are born...once in life time...never moulded or trained...
can Odean play a full FC season to learn to bowl consistently and for longer periods?
That's where moulding and training comes...if any one can do, it be the present ODI management....
In reply to Dukes
Your analysis perfect..... that's where the present team management can step in.... Sammy excellent motivator... Franklin and Hoops on bowling and batting...
As fast bowlers are born...... similarly, clean hitters are born....both fast bowlers and clean hitters can be moulded..
In reply to doosra
Do our first team coaches equipped to help?
Didnt Odean play a FC season with TT some years ago?
some good points made by you and Dukes, lil humbling too because it reminds me to not make hasty generalizations; cyan preach objectivity and constructive dialogue but not practice
