Either Jangoo or Hetty should open

Next match if Lewis is not match fit, Jangoo or Hetmyer should open the batting. They should not put Andrews under that much pressure of facing fresh new ball bowlers

Andrews should be in the West indies playing RSA A team.

We need to stop trying to force-ripe these young fools.

Do not type any foolish replies about any other country's youths.
Out local cricket do not allow players to mature quick because of the lack of skilled players in the competitions,
the badly prepared wickets and and the so few games that we play.

I saw posts here about the amount of games that ICC give Windies this year,
I am subject to correction, but aren't the
Windies allowed to schedule extra games outside ICC schedule as long as the countries are free.

How much spare time does Windies, Ireland, RSA, Bangy, Paks, Scotland, Kiwis
and such has throughout the year.
Especially during IPL.
I suspect that they want to play the big teams because of he big purse.

Quite a thought!!! Jangoo can surely open ...in both formats... Odi and test....

But Hety....once upon a time....hardly any recent time spend batting..... facing 10-15 balls as finisher in IPL...
