Is Jomel Warrican underappreciated

Is Jomel Warrican an underappreciated and under rated bowler?


Has he fallen into the Wi fan's overly inflated expectation for spinners? 78 wkts in 23 matches, 11 less than star boy Seales in the same number of games.


This is a pretty decent record for a bowler who is not necessarily in the first choice 11 most times...


A fan asked this on FB. Sentiments I agree with. I think Warrican is underrated and unappreciated by many here

Stats lies and Damned lies. How many tests has he played vs and in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka? Yes, he much more than Motie took advantage of Pakistan's minefield but notice the two Pakistanis that minefield was set for cannot make a Pakistani team on a normal home surface or away from home. Let's discuss this with some serious critical thinking.

Well. He born in St. Vincent, so 😂

I think he has done well and justifies his selection


23 matches, 78 wickets, 29.30 average, SR 57.60, Econ 3.04


Home 7 matches, 24 wickets, 36.92


Away 15 matches, 84 wickets at 27.06
