If so this is a major blow for WI

Yes major blow as he swings the ball through the air, taking the pace of the pitch out of the equation. Match winner and game changer. He injured his shoulder when diving for a ball during one the of the GA's games.

They had to strap him up to play the final... de man shoulder was heavily strapped.

He didn't even take part in the team warm up. After seeing him at the ground with the strapped shoulder I posted here that he might not play. Was surprised when I saw him in the XI.

I suspect they will go with Anderson Phillip or just two pacers /two spinners and Greaves/ Chase. I think the latter might be a better option:

Chanderpaul
Campbell
Athanaze
King
Hope
Chase
Greaves
Warrican
Pierre
Joseph
Seales

@Cricket_101

A consequence of the packed schedules in modern cricket.

It seemed like he had gotten his mojo in the shortest format.

Many players struggle with this. Alzarri for example is only now beginning to transition smoothly between red and while ball formats.

That a good eleven. Dust bowl or pacer friendly agree that's the best 11
