lara and sarwan used to eat the entire roti, not just the chicken bone. athanaze need to put on some weight hoss

In reply to Jumpstart

All I am saying is that they all started slowly. Let us gauge the youth after 20.

In reply to voiceofreason

Leff Brian out a allyuh kass kass.
Go check his regional first class average and leff him out a allyuh 30sinting posse discussions.

And leff Ronnie out too

Hope he comes good even though I really didnt see anything special. For example there was a youngster, Parris, that played in the CPL recently who had some really easy on the eye shots. Almost like that guy from Barbados

In reply to Chrissy

Ha Ha Ha ! Well Lara was quoted as saying he is the best of the young batters? Does that not count for something?

Some may have forgotten that Allick lead the aggregates at the 2018 U-19 WCup ahead of Shubman Gill.

Best forgotten when one looks at his body of work since. I have time for Allick but he is lacking some mental toughness to go through periods like this and come out on top. All the greats go through slumps but on Allick's international record, we cannot say he is in a slump as he has never excelled. I agree with the other poster that Parris looked good a couple times in CPL and he is one that I would like to see develop.

In reply to PalsofMine
A lot of them look the part . I saw Parris my only concern was that he looked suspect on the back foot but he is one we should identify and mold.

Too young and too much class to give up on Allick. He will come good.

Like Hayden Walsh,him nat improving at all and he getting nuff huppertunities.

Athanaze cannot be compared to Lara and Sarwan. Should not even be used in the same sentence as them

In reply to granite

Walsh is being perenially underbowled in FC cricket. How can a spinner develop to reach even close to international standard when his regional captain has no faith in him??

All this thread really says is that Lara at his worst is on par with our current batsmen

In reply to PalsofMine

Captains are just afraid to bowl him he can probably bowl 2 good overs from 10, and one goodish over in 4,he is lucky to be still getting picked on any WI team.

In reply to voiceofreason

are you BatShit Crazy
haha
comparing Lara and Sarwan to Athanaze haha

In reply to granite

But the question then remains, why pick him? Specialist fieldsman? The only way he can improve is by getting many more overs in. I do not like to see Cornwall just taking the lion share of overs in every match played by Leewards and not giving other bowlers an opportunity. there must be a middle ground between wanting to win and wanting the team to develop. That is why I back Windwards over Leewards as Windwards seem to exude a team spirit
