220 may have been a winning score.

Thing is...I was hoping for at least 225 to 230 to defend.

those 6 wickets for spit when allll of our previous history says we can get at least 60 to 80 runs in the last four was an outlier for me.

This is a typical case of switching op.

I am no defending Scammy not do I like him as a head coach.
Now that, that is out of the way.

When Scammy refused to give La Cucaracha a send off in Barbados.
most her were against that.

Now Scammy decided to give Russell a send off in Jamaica.
And he had a bad game.
Here comes the hammer.

Can't have it both ways people.
Either give Scammy the praise or not.
You can't have it both ways.

Did he do wrong by La Cucaracha?
Did he do right by Russell?

The answer cannot be dependent on the result of the game
or the performance of the individual player.

My opinion, Scammy did wrong by La Cucaracha
and right by Russell.

Russell had a bad game, and that's not on Scammy.
The management allowed Russell a bat and he failed.

On this topic.
Windies should have scored at least 220.
Russell and Powell and to a lesser extent Rutherford to blame.
At least Hetty was selective with his shots.
