Bro Powell may marginally be a better captain but it’s the same players!!!

You guys are yet to realize all Powell did was beat 2nd and 3rd string teams who were preparing for a WC now that we’re facing better teams it’s no surprise we’re getting our asses beat!!!

Not to mention who got swept at home against Bangladesh again please remind me rolleyes

I’m not defending Shai or Sammy but we need to realize it doesn’t matter who’s there they all suck and need to find a way to individually up skill themselves!!!

I get it that most if not all guardians of the change of the guards wants their own leaders. Sammy being egotistical wouldn't be any different so Powell and Braithwaite had to go. But his choices haven't fire the way he wanted. Will he now make a u turn or another change? We shall see.

What other players should he have chosen from who is available for T20? Even in T20 the bowlers did well in 2 of the games not aided by good catching and fielding. How can you drop a batsman 3 or 4 times in 8 balls (3in one over) and expect to win? How much did he go on to score instead of the team being 5 down?

Regardless of who the coach may be it is one on one between batters and bowlers. Unfortunately this is not like football/ baseball/NFL/basketball where you can swap out a player during the game who is not performing during the game.
