Chase should be thanking the fraudster for picking him.. Don't think he would have been close to the test squad if they didn't hand pick him for the captaincy.

That’s true. So I’d rather play an 18 year old who suck than a 30 year old who suck. Bowlers plus youngsters… that’s the formula going forward

He hasn't brought any impact as a captain or as a batsman.

The resilience of the bowlers stood out throughout the series, and I doubt Chase had any contribution there personally.

Bowlers and youngsters, how did that work out when Gayle, Sarwan, Shiv were dropped and Powell, Kraigg and Co. came in?

Exactly! The selectors were quick to drop Gayle and Sarwan with 40+ averages and Shiv with 50+ average! Look at these rassclat dunces averaging less than 20 and Sammy says they're the best!

If you were a less-than-mediocre cricketer who needed Marlon Samuels to get some level of respect, it is not far-fetched that the now turned selector and coach would surround himself with sub-par players.

i believe him and hope were cajoled by sammy back into test cricket when they did want to both showed no interest in the longer format for years hardly even played fc cricket for barbados .in fact chase said he was stunned when sammy told him he was being considered for captain
