get some overs from Graves. Add a batsman. Jangoo or Auguste, Jangoo should have the edge.

I agree. Greaves didnt seem to bowl at all, while Motie only bowled 4 overs, though he went for runs. I think we should have played another batter.

Captain obvious. I called it was the team was released

You must have seven out and out batsman

The all rounder place must be in the five bowlers

Sammy the Stupid did it the other way around.

In the modern game you must select a side capable of making over 300 regardless of the quality of your bowlers

Shai hope is too valuable a batsman to keep. Look how he got cramps

We can never win when a dotard is in charge

An issue for discussion is Shai's insistence on batting at #4 which means that two other men must open and he must keep. In my team, he opened with Greaves and that let in another batsman in the middle order. Read between the lines. I dont have much faith in either of the specialist opening batsmen that were picked in the squad. We will come good in the final ODI when the series is already lost.
