How did King’s replacement Jango perform?

Some fans always critiquing but West Indies best batsman are usually the ones who are not on the field.

King should be helping with hurricane cleanup and give up professional cricket. Mediocre.

LMAO, this respond would stop a reasonable poster from posting shoite, but Slippy would continue to post more to overflow the system.

@Slipfeeler

Your post seem somewhat full of elation Jangoo didn't perform


King wasn't drop after one failure and it is not a career ending drop so Tek it easy

100% agreed. Not taking anything away from Jango — he definitely deserves his chance — but I think what we fail to realise is that our system just hasn’t produced many top-class cricketers in recent times.


Someone like King, while not necessarily top notch, forms the core of our white-ball setup. He’s going through a rough patch, but make no mistake — King is still our number one opener in white-ball cricket right now. Hopefully, Lewis can get his body right so they can continue their partnership at the top.

Jangoo only played one game. You slip showing.

I knew this post would have taken you out of church today, as you couldn’t resist the urge to respond 😀

Slippy how come you didn't post McKenzie scores from the Jamaica Scorpions warm up match?



 
Halliwell Nov 9, 2025, 2:10:11 PM 

jangoo didn’t exactly cover himself in glory nor give the fans something to hope in, during that innings last nite. Full of streaky shots and nervous bat work. He has batter better than that before. Is a seaming track his kryptonite?

@Jammal22

King started out with a bang see Duke's post. West Indies pushed him for Whitehall formats, instead of letting him continue to develop his skills, but once he is not yours, why be rational.

 
natty_forever Nov 9, 2025, 2:15:11 PM 

And how Rutherford has fallen.

King was deservedly dropped after a run of low scores. This is professional cricket where there should be one standard; MAKE RUNS OR MAKE WAY!!

King should be held to higher standard, so there is no point in trying to excuse or rationalise mediocrity. .Let's leave that to the apologists for the unqualified, inept and inexperienced homeboys being foisted on us as potential saviors

 
natty_forever Nov 10, 2025, 7:24:27 AM 

@jacksprat

Agree!

 
Slipfeeler Nov 10, 2025, 8:12:18 AM 

@jacksprat


What if his replacement is no better or worse than him, what then?

 
pariaman Nov 10, 2025, 9:37:14 AM 

@Slipfeeler


Replacement must be given a run, a chance to prove himself

 
cricketmygame Nov 10, 2025, 10:10:11 AM 

@Slipfeeler

he came off the mark

 
WIfan26 Nov 10, 2025, 10:16:25 AM 

I wish our players were as consistent as their insular fans you guys ain’t shame 🙄

 
granite Nov 10, 2025, 10:28:01 AM 

@Slipfeeler

So you sorted out the problem after the fella played one innings and failed.

Slippy leave Jangoo alone! Let him try find his feet in Int'l cricket. King and only King is responsible for King losing his spot.


 
Slipfeeler Nov 10, 2025, 1:59:46 PM 

@pariaman

No problem with giving an alternate player a run but the question still remains unanswered, what if the replacement is no better or worse?

 
natty_forever Nov 10, 2025, 2:01:24 PM 

@Slipfeeler

Then we replace him as well.

 
Scar Nov 11, 2025, 5:55:33 PM 

We know that he no better after one game? WoW! Also, folks you realize that this is NZ and in the rainy overcast weather the ball was swinging and moving lots right?! Has he ever played in that kind of environment etc. before? Of course the answer is no, which is why he had early difficulties. He did adjust for a 2 boundaries after correct?

The NZ bowlers said themselves that this was ideal fast bowling conditions in NZ.

Get ready for the return of the KING!


Long live the KING!

 
jacksprat Nov 11, 2025, 7:29:23 PM 

@Slipfeeler

How will we know if King's replacement is no better, or worse, than him if the replacement is not given a reasonable chance to prove his worth, or lack of it?.
