Goolie out, despite scoring a century in the first match? Is this an embarrassment of riches or a potentially embarassingly stupid decision?

In reply to granite

Indeed. We need to big up JaMo. He just pulled a Justin Greaves in red ball cricket. I have been trying to follow on youtube while working as this is the most competitive match on paper in this round. I am looking forward to seeing Seales and the TT bowlers on this pitch. It is a pity that the momentum had to be broken or TT may well have been close to 380 for the day and looking for 500 with Cariah, Pierre and James still to come.

AlJo has been unusually economical. Is it that he was firing it wide of the leg side or was he bowling deliveries that had to be respected? I was trying to look but was also working. This is probably, on paper, the strongest TT team probably since the Joey Carew team of the early 1970s. To think that they can drop a centurion and yet be 300 plus for 3 says a lot. Well done Coach Emrit and am happy for Josh in particular that he is keeping his name in the running for the WI squad. Nothing helps like a captain leading from the front. I only hope that Jangoo is not getting overconfident. It is wonderful to see any WI batsman retaining form for a 12 month period.

I’m glad America has 4 day work weeks so I could watch cricket all day today.

Despite only 3 wickets lost by LIV, this was a good battle between the teams.

The T&T bowling was good - 3 wickets but the fielding and catching was horrible (lots of midfields and 5 dropped catches).

The opening partnership between Louis and Henry was refreshing to see.

The pitch is not offering anything to the bowlers but Cariah stood head and shoulders above everyone with his line and length. He could easily had a 5-for albeit for the multiple drops.

 
PalsofMine 2025-02-15 00:27:16 

I tuned back in just to see Jewel hit that final ball of the day. Gotta love a man who hits a ball that deserves to be hit no matter what. He should ton up tomorrow with some luck. Goolie has to be the unluckiest cricketer in the Caribbean to have lost out on batting on that pitch, but then I suspect he already knows that.

 
PalsofMine 2025-02-15 01:03:33

If we are to be realistic, that 4th century meant nothing in the context of the game and years from now, those looking at statistics will say wow!!!

Josh should try to make the team as a specialist batter- and he has a long way to go, but his glove work in not up to par.

That's why statitics don't tell you the whole story.

he will get better as a keeper; his batting is good enough for a keeper but can't stand by itself.

Agreed that the 4th century was purely academic as there was only one result possible at the time: A draw. Also his glove-work is not the best and maybe he should focus on his batting. I just believe he will always be a LBW candidate on a more helpful track.

4 games left let us see where it goes from here.
