I don’t see the point in sending Mayers, McKoy and Allen to Nepal. Aren’t these guys all pushing 30 with very little upside???

Mayers and Mccoy probably but Allen nooooooooo! Allen deserves his pick!

I would have taken Edward ahead of Mcoy who is always injured.

Where is big Oshane? lol

I think Nathan Edward should be there instead of Blades.

They should've also considered someone like Kofi James who dominated in the emerging league.

Maybe Sampson too... might be a bit too early for him though.

Had a lot of these guys in the squad. Good to see that they are getting rewarded for their performance and would be able to show their skills on the big stage

Karima Gore is a surprise as he started well but then scores of 0,0 ,1,0. Sampson would have been a better pick.

Good to see Gibson and Taylor along with Russian name on the team management list. These guys, well Gibson and Nikita have been part of TKR team. Disnt know about Jerome Taylor but anyone who can assist thw young bowlers ans batsmen would be an assist.
Wishing them all the best.

I agree thiught Kofi might of get a look in, and Sampson too early. I mean he shining bright now but those picked before him has had their hand up for a while. My XI would be

Mayers
Andrew
Auguste
Carty
Jangoo
Holder
Allen
Hosein
Springer
Obed
Simmons/Bidase

Mixture of yputh youth and experience.
You have two left arm steamers. Two medium pacers
Two spinners and yoy bad basically down to 9.
Hopefully enough of the guys can get some exposure.

M Coy bowled really well this season and lasted rhe season. He deserves to be looked at, especially, in my opinion, was one of the better death bowler.

Bidase must start based on his performance in the CPL
