Put some respect to slow poke name... openning will turn up to deal with you.

Gonna remind you that he's the best opener since Gayle... plus he's better than Sarwan, Kalli because he got more runs than dem lol

As Kraigg's average dip in the last 2 years, he is the best opener in the West Indies, allyuh can take that to the bank.
In his 14 years playing he has 13 tons, the only top country he has not scored a ton against India, 30 50s, Afghanistan and South Africa are the two countries that he has scored against.
Kraigg Brathwaite as an opener has scored more runs than Carl Hooper and more 50s and has played five fewer tests.
Check this out.
Don't get me started, I already sent some to the country with Sir Everton vs Rohan, and I will do the same with Kraigg vs most of the players playing for the region the last 25 or more years.
The stats don't lie.

Would you be so kind and explain to us the significance of comparing Brathwaite with Hooper?

Hooper played for the West Indies and was Called Sir in Bim.
Next question.

Shiv also played for the West Indies, how many fans on this board give him the credit which he deserves?

The fact is neither Brathwaite nor Hooper will be remembered as being a great West Indies batsman.

Shiv should be remembered as a great West Indies batsman.

Shiv is remembered as a great.

Hopper will always be remembered as an underachiever... but he could potentially pass as a decent all-rounder.

Slow Poke will be remembered as the luckiest meodiacre batsman to play 100 test matches... or the greatest in the eyes of openning lol

So then, let's look at the captains in the region, or are we planning to pick an inexperienced captain. We missed that boat with Hefty.

Hooper averaged 45 in his 2nd stint - as captain.

People tend to ignore that for whatever reasons.
