Enough is enough. Time to right the wrong that was done this young Man with one test in his career. Josh had 33 tests and failed. Imlach 6 tests @ 15.4 just not ready.
121 big knock that!

Young, the man is like 35+
@voiceofreason
I concur.
that’s why, earlier, I called him, today’s Irvin Shillingford.
He too, played 1 test, scored a century,
Sobers, still dropped him.
@Trex
i actually think da silva has earned his place as a pure batsman as well so there may be space. only hope and greaves did decently on the nz tour and hope is hopeless against short pitched bowling. he should never be batting at 3
@voiceofreason
If that’s the case please bring back Darren Bravo as well he’s still our best batsman 🫠
That was some hitting, 9 sixes. Hamilton became consistent with the bat too late in his career. although he should have gotten more chances in Test cricket. He might top the batting average for the LWI 2 years consecutively
The two insular 'Islanders' only see what they want' Watch Vor ignore Jumpy's post re 'The Liming Sammy' Di odder one him won't remember Irving's ton was on a dead Bourda and if memory serves he came in for an injured player.Wasn't Dessi Lewis dropped and Findlay recalled before Deryk Murray returned?
@Brerzerk
Dessie Lewis averaged something like 72 runs in his brief 3-test career and never played for West Indies again.. Irving Shillingford never played under Sobers but did score a century and did play more than a single test.
Irving Shillingford was a very good batsmen who just happen to be born at the wrong time, not unlike Renford Pinnock from Jamaica.
@dayne
As with most of our players, we need to stop looking at age and pick consistent performers.
@voiceofreason
Josh had 33 tests and failed. Imlach 6 tests @15..
Josh should be reinstated into Windies...
@Cricket_101
Josh had rubbish kraigg and that talentless athanaze in front of him, doing nothing and making nothing for an inordinately long time. When he came in to bat in the 2nd test of the SA series, he and mootie came in at 45-5, chasing only 260 after both sealed and Shamar had taken five fors. When he made 78 at Brisbane to set the tone for that famous win, he came in at 64-5 and made 79 from number 7. So coming in early with nothing on the board wasn’t unusual. WI took way too long to give kraigg the pink slip that’s what
@Edrich
Sammy has gotten the word. Who vex, loss. I will petition him in writing.
A TRAVESTY that he has only played 1 test!
Yes we from the smaller islands know and understand what has happened in the past.
