Is test cricket too burdensome for Mr A. Joseph?

This discouteous inquiring mind want to know.

Has the door been opened for players to pick and choose which cricket event they make themselves available? Has the precedence been set and the barn door been fully opened for every West Indies cricketer to use as a thoroughfare?

Did Mr. Joseph's unavailability take coach Daren Sammy by surprise?

What a topsy turvey environment West Indies cricket has become.

......................................

Yagga, have you created a niche for yourself? How can you remain in what imho, is a toxic environment? Are you happy with the progress that West Indies cricket has made under your stewardship?

Questions, questions, questions of which we will never find out.

I wish this is not exaggerated speculation on my part, but perhaps, Mr. Joseph has not fully recovered from the plethora of drop catches against his bowling.

Who can blame him?

Also probably sulking from not getting the new ball on his home ground to which he thinks he was entitled ....btw i heard he was prescribed "happy" pills wondering if they've kicked in cos actually see him smile during the last match!😄
