When will the team to england be selected

Louis
Carty
need to be on that flight

In reply to allan

Louis for McCaskie, but Carty for who exactly? They ain't dropping McKenzie or Athanaze.

In reply to Seechy

This is a tough thing for me to say but Tage has been out of sorts for a lil while now

In reply to allan

1st test isn't until 10th July so probably early/mid-June announcement.

The thing with Mikyle Louis is that it's great he's making runs but it's been mentioned by a few that outside off/around 4th stump he's got work to do to correct that.

With no apparent fc cricket after this weekend, it would be important to get him to the academy or work with a batting coach, if not then the selectors need to take on board whether taking him to England is going to be good for the experience in different conditions and a chance to learn while at work or bad if he gets found out early.

In reply to allan

Carty is not going to england unless its a vacation where you going put him ?
holder is coming back athanze, hodge and mckenzie and dasilva are the middle order and imlach is most likely going to be the back up wk batsman who could play as specialists batsman he has done better than carty in the fc season with two hundreds and we have not talked about greaves who could miss out.

You said it

In reply to allan

don't you have world cup before that tour?

In reply to velo

I think Carty's selection to England would be justified. He's been having a quietly good season, and even though it was in the ODI format, he was a bright star in an overall embarrassing series on the Australia tour.

In reply to Seechy

Tage ?

In reply to pkriston
but who would you drop?

In reply to camos

i am wandering the same, why forcus on the tour to England when we have the t20 world cup at hand.

This probably the hardest squad to pick.

Players like Roach is badly out of form.
Let's se what he does in County cricket.

Tage deserves the drop, but who has really put their hands up?
One cannot justify dropping Tage and keeping Mckaskie.
If I was picking a team today, I would drop both.

Carty had demonstrated the aptitude for the red ball game,
Yet he was picked for White ball games.
Well that's my opinion.

People calling for the return of Seales.
I'm skeptical, as I'm watching him in county and he is not impressive (yet)
All county games live on YouTube in case wunna wondering.

I watch a YouTube commentary (Caribbean Cricket Podcast)
where the hosts spoke of the 'Australian Premium'
which refers to the performances on the last tour
stating that certain players should be rewarded for performances there.
I disagree, as e.g McKenzie was good there, but nothing since.

Louis scored big in this series, so do they reward him.
I like Isai Thorne ahead of the untried and tried failed pacers.

I don't envy the selectors.
After the series ends this week,
There should be camps from not till July.

In reply to camos

thats lickit cricket..
we talking about the test players and probably only Jason Holder Alzi and Shamar will make that t20 squad to world cup of the players who might be selected for tests

In reply to tc1

because none of teh t20ers will play test cricket except ( Alzi, Jason and Shamar)

In reply to goliath

You can't drop an opener for a number 3. Who will be the backup if one of the openers gets Injured?

In reply to Seechy

That's not a rule. Anyone who continues to fail can be dropped for someone in better form ....

In reply to Kay

No wonder or cricket is below par.
You believe a guy batting at #3, having an average in the low thirties is qualify to open in a test match?
We just don't play enough red ball cricket or have a structure to randomly select player out of position.
