It is a relative position of luxury that Alzarri is the 4th best seamer.

Only in the last 2 years has he played a few county games.
Kemar has not played local cricket in a long, long time.

Maybe, I do not follow Maple like year ago, my old classmate and capt has pass(RIP Sam) so I have limited information about the club.

The last time I saw Kemar was 2011.

History will be a lot lot kinder to Kemar than the present . In my opinion one the greatest bowlers and servants of West Indies cricket.
Always been a team player. We will miss him more than we think when he does hang up his boots.

Hang on a minute, is this somebody talking sense? big grin

Kemar Roach has been a fine player & until recently, the primary seam bowler for years, leading the attack through some difficult times. Recently, he has maintained a good level of fitness and rarely lets the side down. His work ethic is something others would do well to take note of. Never forget how he had to change his method following serious injury. Many would have just faded away but Roach became a fine player in a different mold.

I hope he stays around for as long as he is taking wickets on a regular basis. The words fine servant come to mind, and that is something to be proud of.

Do you think Alzarri is a better test bowler than Roach or Seales?
He certainly is not!!!
Is he better than Shamar?
No.
Is he potentially an excellent test bowler?
Yes. But what has he ever done in test cricket?
