Andre Fletcher can anybody.....

Offer any explanation or justification why he still gets selected....not saying he was solely to blame for the defeat but in general i cant think of anybody who's been more lucky in forging a career with so little ability ...an at 37 now surely there has to be better options... but evidently not!!!

There has to be a voice of delusion on here to tell you he is Fletchial.

Sammy stays loyal to the guys he is familiar with, even if it makes no long-term sense, on reflection Sammy could have called up Ambris to the squad as he has more to offer in the future, he could wicket/keep for a T20 match, he might be a better batter than Fletcher at this time and he is from St. Vincent,

You forgot the word "grossly"

T20 is still white ball in fact it is lick-it . Yet, WI hasn't included two of the more successful white ball top order one of which keeps wicket in Hopeand Rutherford. Then after this top order embarrassed the region by being woefully to spin Sammybsentboutvtwo lower order lefties aiming to protect thecreal all-rounder who wields a long handle. And, in a 120 ball per innings game to boot!

Fletcher can only open. Everyone except Sammy seems to know that. If he is playing, he must open. They should have dropped King down the order to see how he fares. My bigger issue is why play Fletcher and Charles rather than blooding two youngsters. It seems like DM Bravo was the one-off victim of being too old to play and having to give way to give youth a chance.

You seem to forget 2011's "In light of the move to introduce youngsters into the team Gayle,Shiv and Sarwan have been dropped " All three at once then the lie that "we didn't say they were dropped" though it to Guyana's PM to get Shiv back in tests, took Holding, Gonzales et al to get Gayle back in Maroon. Imagine a CWI CEO forbade The Windwards and WI cappo from playing in a FC match because Gayle was on the opposition's team, the same Gayle who 8 yrs later reply WI in 2019 WC and outs cored most if not all WI "youngsters". HYPOCRITES ALL!
