Samuels told CMC: "The pitches in the Caribbean are a bit on the slow side so it [will depend on] who can occupy the crease the longest and win more sessions.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

"Patience will be the most important thing for this series for the batsmen and bowlers. [You will have to] bowl in good areas and be patient in every way that is possible to win, because it is going to be a tough series.
"These pitches get flat sometimes and they are still on the slow side so whosoever is more patient will come out on top."

These groundsmen need to learn how to maintain a fast, bouncy pitch. You can't just roll and wet the night before. You need to be monitoring the grass every day, twice a day, and cutting and rolling for months before each game. Only then will you get a real cricket pitch.

Oh boy - if you're gonna get dem pitches pacy and bouncy, then you're in for a treat from Boult and Southee - even Anderson would chime in. I do love myself a fiery, WACA-esque bouncy pitch - but that wouldn't work to your advantage. Slow pitch with some turn is the way to go IMO.

If the WI pick the right fast bowlers they will cause problems for NZ.
Even though Best was fast he bowled crap and then there was Sammy who was slower than molasses.
