Hetty or Mayers must replace Johnson Charles

West Indies have been reactive rather than proactive in team selection.

It was only when Shepherd get beat out in two games then they realized Macoy should play instead

If Charles is to be dropped I'd bring in Hetty.
He's been with the team from day 1 training, practicing with the guys. So to me the natural order would be to promote him.

Even that's a wild card

It's not a wild card... anybody coming in won't do worse than the coach friend.

De entire tournament Charles wasting a set of balls... give someone else a chance.

When?

Brandon King will be back. If he does come back into the side for the next match, they might drop Moti.

Hetmyer and Mayers are doing a fine job; keep it up, guys!lol:lol

It's a hard one fellas...remember, West Indies...it can mean inclusion/social representation. Plus, where's the coach from? Politics to de bone. confused


PS. King Charles is fit as he lost some of that big belly & has been playing my favorite cut shots! big grin

I didn't want to disclose this, but a likkle birdie told me that he overheard Sammy, in the French Creole, telling King Charles, I got your sah! Dwl.

Johnson Charles is WI 2nd highest run scorer in this tournament

While his strike rate isn’t up there with the best in the tournament, it’s still well over 100

With him in the opening spot, West Indies have played 6 matches and won 5

I repeat…..he’s the 2nd highest run scorer for WI in this tournament so far and 14th overall.

So what exactly has he done to merit this constant calling for him to be dropped?

On a related note…..many here who call for Charles to be dropped also call for Alzari Joseph to be dropped.

Alzari Joseph is WI highest wicket taker in this tournament with 11 wickets so far. He is 6th overall in most wickets.

He too has played 6 matches and WI have won 5 of those matches.

Her, along with Shurfane Rutherford, was instrumental in winning a virtual must win match against New Zealand in Trinidad.

What justifies this constant demand for him to be dropped?

Why always these 2?

Allyuh think WI would be in this position today without the contributions from both?

You are aware that Mayers was called up....apologies as I havnt read the entire thread.

Mayers came in for KING it is stated.

NOW...Hetty for Charles....

mmmmm

Charles is low on confidence - Hetty for me...is a liability because he is unpredictable...AT THIS STAGE.

If Charles is not injured I am not sure he will be replaced now in the SUPER 8s
