Jewel to make his debut to come in for Rutherford.
Forde in for Jason.
Aljo in for Chase as Chase is just utility , bits n pieces players
We need to figure out how to take wickets after the PP. We also need to capitalize on these good starts we had in games 1 and 3 so Forde should help in that regard. Also he favors the inswinger so that should have the batsmen playing into the wind. Aljo is a wicket-taker period! Yes he maybe expensive at times but he takes wickets!

King
Hope
Hetmeyer gets a full series to prove his worth.
Jewel
Powell
Shepherd
Forde
Motie
Aljo
Hosein
Blades

Playing for pride!

I don’t think Rutherford understood the assignment last night or the data analyst did not inform him properly!
With the opening pair batting well into the 12th over, every subsequent batsman needed to swing for the fences. Such a situation, Shepherd may have been a better option.
Rutherford apparently was trying to make up for his previous failures.
I wouldn’t have selected Blades on this postage stamp ground, unless he wants to get pasted or posted!

Australia trying to give WI a win by resting David, but WI can’t even win a toss. So once again Australia has the advantage of knowing how to pace their innings. However, we have Forde and he should have been in the team from the match at Sabina. Let’s see.

The only change required is in top management, starting with the chief all-in-one head honcho ....
