Not sure yet.

Along with Blackwood, Leroy Lugg has been omitted from the 13-man squad following the seven wicket defeat to the Leeward Islands Hurricanes on march 23.

Spotted at training was former Jamaica & West Indies captain Jimmy Adams who is the former Cricket West Indies Director of Cricket. Richardson is happy to have the 56 year old around the set up.

Lugg should have been given a longer run!

To do what exactly? Play brainless shots, show no match awareness?

If I am in a remote village in Jamaica playing "curry-goat" cricket I am picking Lugg before George Headley.

Does Andre McCarthy have more of a future in Jamaica cricket than Lugg?

Given that the all-rounder McCarthy is not there only for batting I will chance him over Lugg everyday. Lugg has repeatedly shown he lacks patience to play any cricket which last beyond 3 hours.

Blackwood is in England, he is not dropped from the team.
He will be playing league cricket.

This is a DIFFERENT cricketer.

This one is a pace bowling allrounder.

Beckford and McCarthy are in the squad which is an indication that we are looking at youngsters

So is McCarty an assistant coach/player? it is puzzling that these teams pick players with no future on an already weak team, they should give a youth some time to be around the team.

Ok..Thanks… didnt know that! My apologies to young McCarthy!big grin
His parents did him a disservice though by giving him that name! Hopefully he fares way better than his namesake
