Hope Tage and Athanaze make use of their recall!!!

Would’ve liked for Motie to go but I guess he does need a rest!!!

Seems to me the batting us quite weak and inexperienced. Are they banking on inexperienced players to come good as a building block for the future? It seems to me whoever picked thos team (batting) know/s not the difference between a pear and a P...y

The batting will always be weak there’s no aggregate of 5 batters in the region that will give you better results!!!

WI just have to hope and pray the upcoming youth learn to bat somehow!!!

Surprise no Motie but I guess he and aHosein on way to Sharjah?

Still aint see anyone else could of picked so guess the XI may look like

Tage (I would try King)
Campbell
Athanaze
Hope
Imlach ( I think he deserves to play)
Greaves
Cappo
Warrican ( why because we have to)
Joseph
Joseph
Seales

King will bat at 4. WI had Sports Psychologist in late '70's but now now... CWI=Retrogrades.. our batting will always be weak regardless is a fair point

Congrats Khary Pierre

Evidence that it pays to be on 27’s team

Good to see Athanaze back in the mix.

Curious to see the rationale for Tage’s recall.

Arguably Nandu had a better FC season than Tage but he was passed over.

Rest of the team pretty predictable. Kinda odd that Carty got dropped but Kevlon Anderson replaced him.

Oh well…..27 in charge

To be fair, Tage was averaging close to 48 before he got injured in the last FC tournament. He played 3 matches.

Nandu played 7 and finished with an average of 33... Similar to his opening partner Perez.

As for the Kevlon over Carty... I can't recall Carty ever doing anything at the FC level to make the squad in the first place.

I truly hope so.

Just can't see the rationale for leaving him out.

Well, I wish the team well, I would have taken DaSilva as a batter instead of Chanderpaul., but there might be something going on behind the scenes as to why DaSilva is being excluded from all WI teams lately. Also, Carty could have been included instead of Anderson. Anderson needs some A team tours.
