There is some serious HOUSE CLEANING going on in West Indies cricket.
Check out the players who have recently been dropped by the West Indies selectors and the number of tests they have played:
91 tests...Gayle
87 tests...Sarwan
42 tests...Ramdin
40 tests...Big Bravo
21 tests...Nash
Old man Shiv still hanging in there----he was robbed out in the 2nd innings in Barbados(lbw for 12)----but the old man is hanging in there.
BUT ONLY BARELY!!!
These are Shiv's test scores in 2011:
27, 36*, 23, 30, 38, 12 = 165 runs = 33.00 avg
If Shiv continues with his string of 20s and 30s he will definitely join Gayle, BigBravo, Sars and Ramdin on the unemployment line.
Anyway, who would have thunk:
GAYLE(91 tests), SARWAN(87 tests), RAMDIN(42 tests), NASH(21 tests), SARWAN(87 tests)---all dropped from the West Indies team in 2011.
Gayle did not deserve to be dropped---but the others were failing and deserved their droppings.
