It was an impressive short inning Sampson played last match, but he is a player that is not seen often, is he in the Guyanese 50-over team?

The only players that can bat for you are Tits.

Not being able to handle a short ball at this point in his career cannot define him...are Hope an Chase comfortable against short- pitched deliveries aim at their bodies??.....he goin learn!

@CCW

Which current WI player could handle the short ball?

Jumpy going on like Pullfraud, old Poo, the new Poo and the other Tits are world class against the short stuff. 😂

Sampson made his 50-overs debut for Guyana since 2023. Two years before the CPL debut.

Which is why I can't understand why these commentators keep pushing the narrative that he was discovered through tape and bumper ball cricket.

Sampson made the Guyana team in 2023 after he destroyed a full strength Berbice attack that included Shepy, Motie, Permaul, Smithy, Sinclair and others in the inter-county tournament.

Pace is like Delilah to this Samson. That's why they ran him back down to the middle order.

I disagree. Justin and Kirk McKenzie can bat very well

Justin still has to show he is a top batsman, he plays well in the V, as far as Kirk, I have not seen him that often to rate him.

But Shai is still our best batsman, many times he over thinks the game.
