@Narper

Windies is a tough team to beat, men breaking down left and right!

Cut Sammy some slack!

@Narper

Opposition falling like flies , even Men on the bench lol. That 456/6 has a lot of casusalties.

a serious opportunity now exists to win a test series in NZ

first time in almost 30 years

@allan

We don't have the bowling attack on a good surface or the batting on a helpful surface.

New Zealand backups are better than our rookies

So too A Joseph and S Joseph for WI. So it is second best vs second best bowlers.

@voiceofreason

Scammy work his Obeah? 😂

@Baje

Shields did not do too badly. I think Andy Roberts said some time aback that WI should understand that fast bowlers are mature and going through their best from age 26 up.

@Scar

that is not our second best. We could have brought back Holder. Even Forde is a better bet than Yohan right now.

@Scar

I was very impressed with Shields. He has very good lare movement. A little more speed and accuracy and he could be a handful.

@methodic

Even Forde?..Forde is quite good

I don't understand Sammy's unfavorable opinion on Phillip, the guy was good enough to get a contract for County cricket in England, he should know how to exploit NZ conditions. However, the series should be more competitive now that NZlanders have to play less experience players

@dayne

A who pick the squad?
