I guess they will have to sit out Round 3 of the regional 4-day if the ICC approve the changes

this is a good opportunity to firm to the WC squad and they sending two inexperience players.

You have to wonder if West Indies is going there to compete or just for the appearance fee :)

if not those 2 who Bally?

Marlon and Ramdin?

Ramdin not batting still. if he had made some runs against CC it woud have greatly palyed in his favour.

Devon thomas can hit the ball well! lets see.

Kirk Edwards in full flow. I prefer him to marlon. I am tired of Marlon. he is 30 now and never cut it when we needed him.

never fear Ramdin will be back. let him ketch his arse and grow.

he is the best we have with the gloves. he will be back but he has to bat some more. let him focus on what he has to do to get his place back

there may also be the Sammy factor in these replacement selections.

like Richardson before the doctors may be protecting their captaincy pick from players he cant handle. Marlon certainly would be one to avoid by the selectors in this instance. I doubt Marlon will be pik again as long as Sammy is captain.

and Thomas is a Dot. so is Fletcher but he has been tried already and found wanting.
Sammy can lead Edwards and Thomas without too much bother.

Ramdin and Marlon are a different story. their presence will not make /sammsy life any easier!

I would go with Simmons and Samuels.. Edwards and Thomas will get their shot the next WC if they continue to perform. Now you need EXP man.

Here is why I like the two... Simmons can keep and open the batting this will also open an extra spot for Pollard or Samuels. The eleven should be loaded with with all the abilities to win the games
