oh yah, like WI full strength can compete with India's

CAUSE THEY ARE AN INDISCIPLINED LOT!......OUT WID DEM!

if they wanna rotate players they should do it with under 22 players. expose the youth not someone who is 28+. there are some players doing well like gayle, darren bravo, rampaul, bishoo,simmons and roach. we should build the squad around these guys. u cant drop your best players. we have to drop players who under perform.

yes i believe west indies can beat india full strength squad. cause in cricket all u need is one great over.

I don't have a problem with any rotation policy as long as there are clear cut MINIMUM requirements for all the players involved...You cannot tell me about this rotation policy and put players especially batsmen to bat in unfamilar positions like FC Middle Order batsmen all of a sudden are sent to open in international matches and expect them to dominate.... all you are doing here is making the de best at mediocrity....

All in all what I am saying here is dat de fcuking WI do not have a deep enough talent pool to go to any rotation policy, the need to develop our young FC and List A players at that level so they are ready to perform at de international level. De WICB need to understand that THERE ARE NO FCUKING SHORTCUTS.

some players dont really get the chance to show there skill, most time they get one match and when they dont preform they drop them
for example they give brathwaite a chance he made 15 and 0 in the second test. he wont get another chance so easily, yet in that same match we have players like sarwan (20 and 0) and nash (6 and 30), in the first test sarwan (23 and 11) and nash (5 and 3) and they will continue to play but we drop the 18 year old because they think he didnt perform.
so some players are not getting the chance they deserve.

Twisted,

Both Sarwan and Nash are proven performers with good averages at the Test level. Brathwaite, has to prove that he belongs in a Test side. He will get another shot in a couple seasons, he has time on his side.

dravid and ganguly were great batsmen, they were drop because of there under performance. why should west indies keep holding onto a player base on his pass average and what they did. it should be what he is doing at present. for the pass two series or so sarwan and nash havnt really perform.

OK lets go along with you suggestion for a bit here.... What average do you think we should use as an automatic selection based on the last couple series? What average we should use for new selection too?
