Guyanese and all accepting that the Guyanese is no good

Seales was apparently right!

"Tevin Imlach, who will be 30 on 30 November 2026, is much worse off. 6 Tests, 169 runs, avg., 15.36, highest score 35 v Pakistan, in Multan; 2025. 40 First Class Games, 2090 runs, avg. 32.65, Highest score 136 N.O., v Jamaica Scorpions; 2023. No Test 100s; no Test 50s!

Those batting stats are so poor; tail-ender numbers poor; that even if Tevin Imlach was Spiderman as a wicket-keeper, which he certainly is not, he should not be playing for WI with those dastardly poor batting stats. Nowhere in the cricket world are those standards acceptable. Tevin Imlach must have some “God-Father” somewhere in Caribbean cricket!"

I think he was very clear

Based on his narrative, one can inferred he favors Josh...

@pariaman

I think Josh would be the right choice,,,

Croft is pragmatic much like me... Very fair with my critiques.
