a lot of foolishness took place with team selection while he was chairman..

wi needs to move away from these failures.

You are way to early in your midstream giving up! You will drowned yourself in the toxicity of unbelief. Lets give them a chance to pull themselves up by the boot strap.

Wait so Sarwan can be involved in picking team but the GREATEST man to play for WI a Trinbago man was not allowed to pick his team.. wow!

In reply to Chally1

You better believe that, as we would not want him to replicate picking his Trini countryman who is an opener, and batting him at no. 8. In other words, even Sarwan is NOT THAT DUMB!! Get over it, Lara has faded into the past as a good batsman and a very bad captain! Hopefully we will now have some cohesion in the team.

dis sounds like a kc man.

a dottie revolution is not a bad thing....maybe some players could emerge with some work ethic and brains...my Bajan players (Edwards,Smith) have disappointed me with their lack of work ethic...is time for some other guys.

A dottie is being given a few crumbs :cry: :cry:

WHy all this bruhaha over a manager anyway? What the hell does he do to generate all this attention. It seems more like a ceremonial position anyway.

I am amazed they haven't seen it fit to appoint a fast bowling coach for this tour.
Who is going to guide Jerome and company?

A small correction- converted opener. He batted anywhere from 1 to 7 before he played under Lara. Indeed he was played as one of the bowlers in one day cricket in U -19 cricket. The falacy being forwarded that batting late in the order was new to him should be ended. Further to that he was selected as a wicketkeeper back-up and would have been expected to bat either as an opener or at 7 or 8 anyway.

I suppose that is why we are unsuccesful since the Team Manager is a ceremonial role rather than an operative role. Trinidad in the last four years are examples of why this role has to be operative. After a successful year the manager was changed which resulted in a dramatic failure and his rapid return. On his return they were successful. His role was and is applauded by players as being valuable in ensuring that the team is ready and mentally able to play cricket. Lord knows we need someone to do this.
