WI won the first two Editions with Test players.
Even in this dispensation with the various changes, innovations, it is still an
imperative that your Best Test players should constitute the bulk of your
ODI team.
It is tough cricket especially at WC level like this and at International Level level it is
closer in toughness to Test Cricket and will always be so as oppositions
are tough as they are parading their best and most competent players.
Lickit 20-20 has its place ODI is really tough cricket.

The latest regional 50-overs tournament showed how poor WI Test top six batters are at ODI cricket, out of the players who played the last WI Test match, only Tage and McKensie scored a fifty.

Tage needs a different coach...some like Hooper or Lara. He should stop working with family members

It could be a good idea, he always looks out of position to play a scoring shot on the offside
