Why was Hosein not selected?

vor seems to think it’s because he didn’t make himself available for the past 2 years and more.

Some people never seem to tire of always trying too hard to sound like some kinda wise guy.

plain and simple: Hosein was the pick of the front line bowlers on the day.

Nothing more. Nothing less.

The same reason Holder was not selected......


West Indies conceded 82 runs in last 10 overs.... Batter..Miraz,Rishad & Sohan....


Still no Holder...

I didn't get to watch our innings in the Super over, I guess I csn call it that lol.

But yeah a partner called me and ask me who I think should bowl. I told him Akeal. There was no one else I would of feel giving the ball to. And honestly I didnt expect him or the team to defend 11. I was like WI need bout 15 to defend this comfortably. And to say the man bowled more extras than runs off the bat and WI still win is nothing short of a miracle.

But IM


the man just lead the team in Nepal…new weight for his shoulders and an expression of confidence in him.


The Bangla Squad Yes had to go head…and Let him JOIN from ODI 2…I don’t see anything funny bout that.


That is MAN management and Logistics.


Hosein dug deep…and pulled it off…he didn’t stir no pots today but played himself in,


Kudos to the young man…


and as any good coach would tell you…


Don’t make excuses for him- let him man up…this is not the participation trophy squad we trying to build here.
