[TumTum]

[sribabu]

[Abhas]

Boxing day tests are on December 26th

Unsure about the playing XI. Will look it up on cricinfo before deciding the team.

 

[TumTum]

Gayle is playing, gotta make the adjustments

 

[icyman]

I am not sure about Gayle's form. So,will not take a risk by selecting him.
I have put my faith in many young turks like Barath & Co.,not sure whether it will work though.

You might have a point, but Gayle is Gayle and the same can be said for a few of the guys, I mean the one warm up match, really is not much.

 

[icyman]

Thats true Rabs.Gayel is Gayle

Overall,if you see,the Windies have been put of competitive cricket for a long time. On the other hand,players from T&T have performed really well in the CLT20.Ofcourse,I am comparing two very different forms of cricket here,but I think that should not be a great problem given that these guys are professionals and they adjust quickly.

I expect guys like Bravo, Shiv, Ramdin to kick off from day one, sadly we don't have the burst of Edwards, but they should hold their own.

 

[icyman]

Shiv has done well in the past. Oh btw, i wanna see him bat. Hope he has not made any more changes to his stance.

 

[Dare]

can I replace Sarwan with Watson? Sarwan is out injured.

 

[kellerwwfc]

Can i replace Sarwan for Batting reserve 1 carnt remember who he is now

 

[aussie1st]

Weird, the game should still have been open. Will have to wait for Zexy to change that.
