Ramdin was in the zone

Ramdin was deadly today. His running in particular was very good. He even managed to inspire Darren to actually run (Darren still conceded a terrible 60+ dot balls).

Ramdin also gave no chances, and hit some effortless sixes (11 of them) when the likes of Pollard/Gayle/Simmons/Sammy struggled to do the same.

What's also amazing about Ramdin, is his strike rate. During this century, and his recent ODI century vs England, he came out of the gates and immediately started fluently scoring. He was striking well over a run a ball for most of his innings. The other WI batsmen need to learn from Ramdin: running is the safest and easiest way to make runs. Our other batsmen only hit boundries and block dots. Ramdin runs singles, doubles and then explodes when the time is right.

* Did you know Ramdin's strike rate in onedayers is 80.90 ?

* For comparison here are the strike rates of Ramdin's teammates:

95.17---Pollard
83.99---Gayle
82.49---Dwayne Bravo
81.90---Ramdin
72.89---Samuels
71.14---Simmons
70.86---Darren Bravo

Mis stumped !

Coincides with his selection to Guyana Amazon Warriors  :

Kudos to Coach , Roger Harper 

I think it was Bravo who was mis-stumped.

Anyway, what about Gayle and Simmons? We want them dropped from ODIs? Gayle and Simmon's ODI average over their last 15 games have been atrocious.

Other ODI options:

Gayle
Smith
Powell
Barnwell
Blackwood
Fletcher
Paint

Then it was the drop catch ...
