    New Zealand Tour of West Indies May-July 2014

    Test form on one test match? Biig form that is, one innings too. As opposed to 4 innings on spin friendly wickets of Bangladesh. That too against a side like Bangladesh. The point I made was that in tests he won't be nearly as effective as he has been on the IPL which was suggested earlier...

    New Zealand Tour of West Indies May-July 2014

    Its very relevant when you get taken apart by Bangladesh while bowlers like Ghazi end up taking wickets. That too on those spinning wickets in Bangladesh. As for Benn he has had his fair share of disciplinary issues including being sent of the field for not wanting to do what the captain told...

    New Zealand Tour of West Indies May-July 2014

    There is a big difference between trying to pick someone in a T20 and a test match. Narine pretty much got taken apart by Bangladesh in Bangladesh. In test matches players have time to play him out and wait for the bad delivery and take singles at will. Same sort of thing happened to Mendis...

    I like the look of the sagicor team. Ambris had a good d?but season and seems to be a good young player. I hope that Beaton gets a go with all these fast bowlers selected. And Carlos Brathwaite can use this as an opportunity to try to force his way into the WI team as an all rounder.

    Sammy has retired from test cricket. Regardless of what people say about his performance he has led from the front during a tough transition for the West Indies. He was respected by the team and they played hard for him. As for his future I believe that he deserves a place in the ODI/T20 team...

    West Indies Domestic Season

    He has been amongst the wickets since he came back and if he can keep it going I don't see why he shouldn't get a chance to try and earn a first team spot. Im not sure when the next West Indies A tour is but he should definitely be included there.

    Kirsten says Greame Smith the Greatest Captain !! Thoughts

    Clive Lloyd had the best of the Caribbean in his team. From 1 to 11 there was a star, some of the best in the world. Lots of superstars and he kept all of them in check, that was his greatest accomplishment as a leader. They were all from different islands, different countries and he got all of...

    West Indies Domestic Season

    Good to see Jerome Taylor get some wickets. Hopefully he can put in a solid season for Jamaica and push for a spot in the test team. Need some experience to lead the young and inexperienced test attack.

    England and Ireland Tour West Indies (ODI & T20 Only) (Feb-March 2014)

    Yea he proved me wrong today as well but he needs to keep this form going, 5 50+ scores in over 100 ODIs is not good enough. Once again the top order failed and left too much for the 5,6,7 and the rest to do. It is mind boggling that nothing is being done, showing faith is all good but some...

    England and Ireland Tour West Indies (ODI & T20 Only) (Feb-March 2014)

    yea Pollard is still out with the same injury he picked up in that charity footy match and isn't in the world T20 squad either. And I forgot about Samuels but yes he is out injured as well. He could be that #3 for WI. for now they need to make at least one change for the last match.

    England and Ireland Tour West Indies (ODI & T20 Only) (Feb-March 2014)

    Great to see the west indies fight and defend a low total. Hopefully they can pull it off. The top order is a big concern and I think that Edwards should be dropped for Jonathan Carter. I like Edwards for the longer version of the game but he has never been a good one day batsman. Carter on...

    Fidel Edwards in for Ravi Rampaul. Extra pace for New Zealand to face if he gets in over Tino Best which he should.

    New Zealand Tour of the West Indies - June-August 2012

    Kemar Roach has the most wickets by a fastbowler this year. The 3 guys ahead of him are Ajmal, Herath and Swann. Hopefully this continues for him. He has put in plenty of hard work and its paying off.

    Great job Kemar Roach. Doing exactly what a strike bowlers should do. Started of the day brilliantly for the WI and ended it well too.

    I have been watching since lunch today and Wagner seems ordinary to me. The commentators have been going on about his seam position and have been showing allot of his deliveries and so far I have not seen one ball where he has the seam in the upright position.
