We can only pray that Sammy's run is coming to an end!!Googley wrote:you sure? how can Russell play in the senior team when Scammy is there?Russell playing suggests that they want to see him in more four day cricket before he gets another Test chance which is good i think,
Scammy rightful place is in the A team!
, i actually think with Russell's batting ability and pace he would be a very decent replacement for Sammy.Keep dreaming Mike!!.. HE'S GOING TO INDIA, the selectors were at the Leeward's and Jamaica game where he got a 6 and 5fer respectively, so needless to say HIM TICKETS ALREADY BOOKED!!mikesiva wrote:This is just the squad for the first 'Test', so don't get too excited....

Personally, I don't expect the Test side to India to change much from the current Test squad, and I don't think the ODI squad to India will change much from the ODI squad that played against Bangladesh....AFRO wrote:Look like mi prayers might come true to rhatid!!Westdem wrote:WTF...Carlos, Danza and Andre get dropped from the ODI against India...
I also guess Sunil Narine going to India ...

MATHURIN, NKRUMA BONNER AND DERWIN CHRISTIAN have never played a single match for the A-team, and yet magically they turned up on the pitch when we beat England the other day?!!..and CARLOS BRATHWAITE hasn't played an A-game either, so your notion doesn't hold weight Mike!!mikesiva wrote: Personally, I don't expect the Test side to India to change much from the current Test squad, and I don't think the ODI squad to India will change much from the ODI squad that played against Bangladesh....
Going by past experience, if the WI selectors are going to bring in anyone new, it will be from the players who will be playing against the Bangladesh A side. Narine, Kantasingh, Holder, lesporis and Hughes can only really hope that when those players are called away for the WI A team, that they will be in contention for a place against the Bangla A side.
Afro, don't get me wrong - I like Narine. But I don't think the WI selectors are going to let him jump over the A team....
, And why wouldn't Narine take his place in the First Test?mikesiva wrote:As I said before, Afro, that 12-man squad is just for the first 'Test'....
Wait and see what squad is announced for the one-dayers against Bangladesh A, and if Narine and the others are in that squad, then they will probably be on the flight to India for the ODIs, assuming they do well against Bangladesh A, of course.
IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, he's clearly the best spinner in the region so i'd imagine they'd want to look at him as much as possible, so i can only come to one conclusion, and that is he's heading to India and will replace Shillingford, whether he plays the first test or not remains to be seen, but he'll be with the squad imo. .
I hope you are right. However, I think you are giving the folks in charge too much creditAnd why wouldn't Narine take his place in the First Test?

how many stupid things have you seen them do in recent times?!the selectors aren't that stupid
