So you replace him with a 34 year old who has played 44 test with an ave of 25 with an SR of 50.....and you expect this replacement to get further in international cricket

Kieran's failure(s) due to the era in which he played. Not much success(es) to report for that period. Recall he was hand-picked by the then WICB (ok, CWI) president to be the next WI cappo.

ey.....adam vogues played his first test at 37 after first debuting for AUS in odis at age 26. he finished with an average over 60. o all is not lost for powell. A blind deaf-mute can see that tagenarine at this point does NOT have the technique for test cricket. keiran has one thing that only da silva, hodge and Mckenzie have right now in a WI line-up: a sound technique.

Didnt he make test tons in both innings of a test match?
How many times has he been recalled to the test team and then dropped for failing?
Now I am not arguing for Tage to stay....but to replace him with a repeated failure is madness....
Give a young opener a chance....if Tage dont shape up.
Tage had a good start to his test career against none other that the mighthy Ozzies

Ask Universe Boss....many on this board and elsewhere condemned his technique since the early 2000s
Technique is over rated, ask Ganga!

really if you can bat in the top 4, you can open an innings
case in point Steve Smith
or even Viv he first started

It looks like Solozano is sending a message to the Selectors, he has been the most consistent opener so far this season, not bad for a player who cannot make a Trinidad team

Louis is by far the standout player

That will be a backward move, you have to build with the team that went to Australia.
Louis has put his hands up, let see how the other openers are doing.
The tour of England should be Kemar Roach's last tour.

In my opinion - Tage is too immerse in defensive mind-set while at the crease, which is compromising his batting. I think if relaxes at the crease and bat freely, he'll yield better results...

if gayle had a proper technique, he would average close to 50 like the rest of his opening counterparts in test cricket. I'm talking about the hayden's. sehwags, Alistair cooks of the cricketing world. how many times did sarwan and lara come in two wickets down with very little on the board because gayle and ganga or wavell hinds did very little at the top

i wouldn't call powell a failure. he was a victim of the chaos that enveloped west indies cricket from 2010-2019. Not one WI batsman in test cricket came out of that period with their reputations enhanced? How could they, especially when it was apparent that the teams being picked weren't the best available sides.
That victory in australia had as much to do with the environment surrounding the team as it had to do with the performances of shamar, da silva and hodge and the others.

right now i'd put mohan and especially Jyld Goolie above chanderpaul. Goolie oozes class in the same way McKenzie oozes class. As i said, he just attacks too much but hell, i prefer going down fighting than being a hermit in perpetuity. if you're going down, inflict some injuries while you're doing it.

Z.Mc.Caskie must be on the team to go to England whether he replaces Tage or not but he is one to go far.
