Bishoo, Barath and Rampaul...followed by DM Bravo and Russell
Roach has regressed, we have seen Simmons max at 26 years old, and it is not quite good enough. sknash is mediocre, samuels at 29 is also mediocre.
Sammy is a half decent captain tactically, a bowler who has proved he can take wickets on helpful wickets, but an incapable batsman.
Shive and Sars appear to be spent forces on whom the book canot quite be closed as yet. we must give them more time and the end of this series seems approapriate time at which to decide on their future...not now!
Dwayne Bravo remains an enigma, a player full of ability but not really doing it with bat or ball for the westindies
Baugh as keeper appears to be enjoyng his best time ever with the gloves. he is hitting in the twenties often now as atsalthough that is hardly good enuff for a keeper these .
Ramdin with the potential to score big as a batsman in tests, including tons, is a much better prospect than Baugh, and I await his maturation with a sense of much better to come.
for imporvement of this bunch of players..team..we must go back to Gayle as we have already done back to Edwards...ultimatley to Benn I hope.
and westindies must find a captain from among those who are actually capable and add to team balance...not take away from it.

Yep! Those are the young stars.Bishoo, Barath and Rampaul...followed by DM Bravo and Russell
Agree!Roach has regressed, we have seen Simmons max at 26 years old, and it is not quite good enough. sknash is mediocre, samuels at 29 is also mediocre.
Sammy has taken 14 wickets in his last 3 tests---he is a bowler---not an allrounder----by the way, his test batting average is 16.52---not bad for a bowler.Sammy is a half decent captain tactically, a bowler who has proved he can take wickets on helpful wickets, but an incapable batsman.
Sars deserve to be dropped. Shiv's best days are waaaaay behind him----his 23 and 30 in the Jamaica test was disappointing-----but he is still the best batsman in the Caribbean.Shive and Sars appear to be spent forces on whom the book canot quite be closed as yet. we must give them more time and the end of this series seems approapriate time at which to decide on their future...not now!
Dwayne Bravo is no enigma---he is a FAILURE. After 40 tests he averages a poor 31.43 with the bat and 39.84 with the ball.Dwayne Bravo remains an enigma, a player full of ability but not really doing it with bat or ball for the westindies
Baugh is just as mediocre as Ramdin with the bat.Baugh as keeper appears to be enjoyng his best time ever with the gloves. he is hitting in the twenties often now as atsalthough that is hardly good enuff for a keeper these .
Gayle will be back---bet the house on that.for imporvement of this bunch of players..team..we must go back to Gayle as we have already done back to Edwards...ultimatley to Benn I hope.
As long as Sammy keeps taking wickets---he has taken 14 wickets in his last 3 tests---only Bishoo(16 wkts) and Rampaul(15 wkts) have done better----but as long as Sammy keeps taking wickets----he stays as captain.and westindies must find a captain from among those who are actually capable and add to team balance...not take away from it.
