Kraigg's two drawn series

You have taken plenty of hits from this lot, especially from the Trinies, Good Morning Jumpy and the Musicman.

Kraigg the two test series draw that you and the youngsters accomplished reminds me of the West Indies 1960 tour to Australia.
Your team is much younger than Sir Franks, you have been maligned where Sir Frank was praised, 50 years from now, both series will be remembered.

Keep working, and block out the noise.

Still waste

WI could have won both, with a better skipper!

no they couldnt

Well that backfired…….with Trinis doing the firing to boot

In reply to camos

The Kraigg Brathwaite that batted in the second innings.... we need to see more of him, that 52 is worth 150

In reply to hawk

KB batted out of character and he was determined and led from the front, set fields and make great bowling changes in real time and motivate his teammates,but all the credit is given to Andre by some .
Coach Andre was instrumental to the win, but the on site manager must be given his flowers also.

Did you watch the first test.

His bowling changes were abysmal.
Overbowled Mootie and Sinclair, especially in the first innings.
I am guessing that you made this statement based on results.

That comparison Sir is a most disingenuous disgrace of the highest order. Climb dung from your euphoric high. By the way it is WI drawn series not Kraigg's he's still a less than average skip

how dare you?

In reply to tc1

ln all honestly, the kind of batting he displayed needs to be more in-character than out-of-character, he would have higher scores and a better strike rate.

In reply to Brerzerk

I have had the opportunity as a 13-year-old to listen to some of the 1960 coverage, and what I learned from receiving an everyday scorecard was knowledge.
My best friend's mom had Cerebral palsy, she loved cricket and made her own score sheet, that describes every ball.
There was no TV coverage, the commies took you inside the game, whether the captain was good or bad we did not know.
Today, everyone is an analyst, you get to see in real-time, that captains still have to make decisions like in the 1920s.
having that knowledge I long for the coach to make all onfield decisions and the captain's role to be the same as other team sports.

You will never hear me comment on a captain's onfield error when a management staff have technology available to him, and that info should be sent to the captain.

A captain?

Or

THIS captain?

Nothing you have written turns your gross false comparison into logic. In fact it is an insult to The Late Great Frank Worrell and his magnificent team
