Could have been 0-3 were not for the rain. Hopefully he can rally the troops to turn it around in the Test series.

Captain Alick Athanaze was a big let-down.

If we didn't know better, we could/would have accused him of sabotage against the former (successful) test head coach.

?
What's your point?
Is not like WI have been winning anything lately

vor really wanted to post this headline instead

“Sammy proven right to have fired Coley”

In reply to Drapsey

True Alick let us down with dishonorable mention of Oshame 15 overs 2/119.

This must be a first. Cry Music responds without attacking a Bajan.

Athanaze 0-2 as WIA captain. Could have been 0-3 were not for the rain.

Petty, petty, petty,petty; er projection. Look ova dere an' leh WI forget the undeserving elevation of Sammy and Hilaire...an action that has set back WI cricket at last 15yrs.

Coley appointed as interim head coach Dec 2022....Appointed permanent head test coach May 2023........for 2 years.......
Victory against Australia stood out...
Although West Indies did beat Pakistan in Abu Dhabi 2017..but ... Beating Pakistan in Pakistan commendable....
Apart from above 2 victories....nothing ....lost to Bangladesh at home...first time since 2009..lost all series....

But, the main drawback was .....the total test team in flux....No one....I say No one is autopick....Gibson, Stuart Law, Simmons....all had their moments...all faltered at times...but when all these coaches left, test team had some players, who were sure picks....First time in three decades....the test team is totally dismantle....
....

Suh VOI you think is Coley pick the A Team?

You looking at the spec in iMusic eye, while the beam in yours out fih juke out the yeye of all of us on the MB.

Roston Chase and Warrican are test version of Romvan Powell.....Once a core team develops....and their personal performance not upto mark...both would be cast away....even if, team winning.....

Brathwaite playing A- tour match.....last time a most experienced and former captain played A- tour match... I assume Brathwaite has been categorically told to play or get dropped....

Roach.. already mentor-player....

To my mind....Silva and Imlach are only two sure pick...based on regional performance...

The way Sammy...I Say Sammy ...I criticised his non- transparent appointment......handling white ball team is very commendable and appreciable.....

Giving Pooran and Rutherford long rope to play IPL...
Although Pooran team out of play off....

Getting Hety on flight to England from India.....Hety missed the flight to Australia from Guyana...

Although not confirmed...Silva asked CWI/ Sammy to excuse ...for A-tour...granted...

W.I. winning England series.... period

I assume player- management is very difficult in Caribbean...

I will measure Mr. Commendable on how far up the ladder he goes.

In reply to voiceofreason

a real waste of a thread.

Mr. Coley will be fine.

In reply to voiceofreason

no one whom have not played white ball cricket professionally, in the last 10 yrs, have no business coaching white ball cricket. Cricket, the dynamics of the game have changed drastically. he was a coach with no plan. Maybe in the test series he will be more comfortable.
