So far he is not proving to be better than Silva in that department which I had understood to be the rationale for getting rid of Silva.

To the best of my knowledge, there was never any explanation by CWI, the head coach, or head selector regarding why DaSilva was not only dropped from the squad, but also was no longer considered for a leadership position with the team.

People assume / speculate that he was dropped because of his batting average, but I don’t recall that being stated by any official source

The only thing I can think of regarding Josh is that he said things or mentioned way of working that did not go down well with Sammy during his interview for the captaincy role.

@Conorboy

At the time Sammy was saying Bazball was the way forward, Josh I would think had other thoughts
