bad game? thats an understatement!
it was a flipping nightmare! THEY SUCKED!!
First of all, Shiv should be opening the batting or warming the bench!
Second, Why is Ramdeen not playing?
Third, why the batting order looking like a test battig order? This is T20 dammit!!!

Bally, Shiv has played 21 T20 games...I think he averages about 18 with a strike rate of 100. Thats not good enough for T20 games.
I keep hearing how Shiv will come good, juss give him a chance. No sir! It wont happen!
He is 36 and will not change his style for T20.
If he can't open the batting, then don't pick him! The team's best chance of holding down one end is if Shiv opens. If not, he is wasting time in the team, experience and all.
I don't have a beef with Shiv. I have a beef with the dumbass who pick Shiv and then let him bat at Test cricket order!

jamaica's fielding was outstanding in their impressive win over defending champs Guyana!
Their batting struggled, only posting 115-7, as the batsmen struggled to cope with spinners Davendra Bishoo, Veerasammy Permaul, and Royston Crandon, only Marlon Samuels offering any serious fight with a battling 42 from 48 balls. But the outstanding performances came when it was Guyana's turn to bat. Andre Russell bowled outstandingly well with three overs, seven runs, three wickets, and he was ably backed up by his pace bowling partners, Jerome taylor and Krishmar Santokie, who were very accurate.
However, surprisingly for pace bowlers, Russell and Santokie were brilliant in the field. Whenever they threw the ball at the stumps, they hit them. And Bernard had a good allround performance, making runs with the bat, taking catches in the field, and taking wickets with his medium-pacers....
the only blemish was that dropped catch by Danza Hyatt, which seems to have aggravated an old injury.
