Brathwaite needs to be persisted with

The man is vastly experienced, has got close to 6000 runs and multiple hundreds. Yes, he’s going through a bad phase but who doesn’t. And honestly there is no one else waiting in the wings to make the opening slot their own.

With this mentality...no wonder West Indies continue to lose

Quantity of Poor Experience can be worth nought and naught! We want quality Experience better yet expertise

DOn't care who replaces him...just replace him....god man, some of you really in love with people who consistently fail...and this after 99 tests
Just give someone else a chance...
Since you like failures, someone else failing should not matter to you, should it?
Unless, you have ah thing for Paint

Brathwaite needs to be persisted with

because he is bajan and has no employment prospects outside the west indies and barbados pride. i applaud you for being concerned with his financial and employment prospects

Next his last? But not for Roach a more deserving hey? You are like a Maga supporter where anything Chump does they justify, even extreme opposites. Roach no farewell test Sammy right, Kraigg 100 test send-off Sammy right.

Chanderpaul a far more deserving cricketer was humiliatingly discarded, no one waited for him to complete a desired number of matches. What has West Indies cricket come to, when stupid insular fans are willing to risk a whitewash, so a failing player can attain his goal? WI cricket has gone to the dogs, even Brownie would agree with me big grin

You are correct as far as Tage concerned...but this management has a different approach....if at all......one of openers get dropped...Louis comes in.....

I was not talking about Tage, I was actually referring to his legendary Dad.

Roach should have been given a farewell no doubt. However water under the bridge. Let KB play his 100 and move on.

Chanderpaul was humiliated by Simmons....first.. personal grudge..... second..just few runs needed to be highest run getter for West indies......
Big Idiot, tried to intervene and make him play one final farewell test......but Simmons was adamant...got his way......

Simmons....taking Bangladesh the same path.....lost to Zimbabwe at home....now innings defeat vs Sri Lanka..

Let move on from KB, but neither Campbell nor Louis is the answer to open the innings.

I am so sorry for the bajan than horn you.

In reply to brians_da_best

I'm on the fence with this....on one hand KB needs to go but on the other opening the batting against what is probably the best bowling attack in the world can possibly destroy the confidence of any heir apparent so to speak if failing... much better to ease your way into what undoubtedly is the toughest batting position against lesser opposition an hopefully gain some confidence with runs under the belt.....so might aswell let KB soak up some some more punishment!!

 
XDFIX 2025-06-30 16:08:43 

If KB doesn't perform in the next match, he should be given a golden handshake!

Even if he performs. We allowed you to 100, now ... bye!

That would be harsh, bro. You can't punish a man for performance!

Please tell us what this personal grudge is /was that Phil Simmons has/had against Shivnarine Chanderpaul.

Thanks

I said that because I doubt he will.

KB trend, fail first 2 test, them make runs on feather bed 3rd test. Dwl
