Need to bolster batting....plus he can bowl

For who

In reply to Leggully

Pick one.

In reply to ray

Right…so statistically what does ‘bolster’ mean? 5 more runs to a total?
Bring them back home. It’s a waste of time. You get better playing against better opposition but under-15s should play under-17s. Not big hard back men.

Bring them home.

In reply to mikelegend Kirk?

In reply to Leggully

If you can't figure out for who, then you in worse shape than West Indies

In reply to Halliwell

RIght now, batting is poor and they can't come home...so, bring him in

Wouldn't it be absolutely disrespectful if WI were to say KB!?

Right now, you going in with the same bowlers...replace one of the other "batsmen"

In reply to Leggully

For Kraigg Brathwaite of course

In reply to chantilly In the middle of a series, yuh gine axe the captain?? Fans & the whole of Barbados gun declare war on the rest of the territories.

In reply to ray

Shamar doesn't look fit.

Sinclair for Shamar.

In reply to BeatDball

No bajans would declare war over dropping opener Kraigg for a lower order batter. We would just laugh at the ignorance and backwardness of this region

i am thinking whether KB should try batting at No 3. Kirk should get a last chance opening with Louis. Sinclair will not play until Test 3 in place of Kirk.

In reply to PalsofMine

Radical changes needed. Kraigg out with injury or for rest .

Louis
Da Silva
McKenzie
Athanaze
Hodge
Sinclair
Imlach (wk)
Holder
Motie
Alzarri
Seales

Sinclair must be in the next match by the hook or the crook

In reply to pkriston

So you drap Shamar?

In reply to XDFIX

In for who? Motie is undroppable.

In reply to pkriston

Like your thought process. Would not play Da Silva as a batter if Imlach plays.

In reply to Seechy

I wouldn't mind if he plays instead of Alzarri indeed. However, though less economical, Alzarri created more chances this game and may deserve the nod . Shamar would come back in for game 3 with another mediocre game from Alzarri.

Jeremiah Louis should also be considered if the track looks seam friendly, maybe for McKenzie.

In reply to pkriston
I dont mind the radical changes. Silva will captain but McKenzie will open with Louis. I would put Imlach at #3 where he bats for Guyana and bat Silva at 5 or 6. I would swap in Louis and Shamar in the final test for possibly Holder and Aljo or Seales as we do not want Seales to break down before SA test series. We need to experiment on this tour as we are looking hopeless and clueless.

In reply to PalsofMine

Tarnish scored heavily this match

Hope he continues his form when he opens and captains next match

In reply to pkriston

I would drop Kraigg
but thats not possible.

so my team

Kraigg
Louis
Sinclair
Athanaze
Hodge
Mckenzie
Da Silva
Motie
Seales
Shamar
Azi

Reserve

Jase
Imlach
Zach

In reply to sudden

Tarnish is captaining based on his record captaining the A team. No one has complained about that. I agree that he needs to polish up on that performance (pun intended)
