but this is a powerful kick in the teeth for west indies cricket here. I don't see how the players will pay hard for west indies at this point.  west indies cricket is toast

if Ramdin is still there he must be protected by the Trinidadians, who are responsible for Skameron's selection.

Caly,

Yes West Indies are in the doldrums and have been for a considerable period now.

However the right decisions need to be made to give the team the best opportunity to develop in the long term.

So for me it matters who is Captain as, in the case of a very inexperienced Holder, he can take the team further backwards.

who is what in west indies cricket is determined by the system in place......

I know you do not subscribe by my analysis Mail but I am right.  I am not guessing or asking  I know what I talked about.  there is a capitalist bureaucratic system in place.  it is a parasitic system that feeds off its host..cricket/cricket players, as a parasite all it can can do is suck blood.  it can lead its host to food so that it can suck more food but in the end it must kill its host ad move on to a new one

such is the wicb since 1995, the passage of the local white elites from power into the hands of the black/brown elites.

given the nature of the bureaucracy it can live and do no different than it is doing. that the wicb would go back on its word with the players is no sooprise.  they had to. that would appoint a lackey as captain is no sooprise either.  they will not do other wise.  their natural goal is to secure the cricket for their exploitation, make it safe and free from revolution so that can continue feeding indefinitely.

ultimately they will homogenize the team, make it a cipher team that goes out to play like automations, give no trouble, do all that it is told to do

You Folks reading this wrong and hence missing the bus  :-[

Lloyd believes in 2 things :

1.Education
2.His Barbados genetic.

Bravo possess neither : we all know he just plays for the Gallery

Hopefully his acting and singing CD and T20 picks , does well for him!

I hope his half brother Darren dont pick up what we call in Guyana : "Fire rage "

what education...... >:(

Holder has absolutely nutten to contribute save some batting runs....

west indies team is awful currently.  the west indies team has been dying away down this level since 1995, worse every year since then. so what is involve the education of the players... ::confused::

the only dam constant is the wicb expanding all to hell while the quality of the play on the field dies down to the worse it has even been

I think you are a lil unfair on de young man.

His econ rate in 46 ODIs is 4.79. That is not bad.

Suleiman Benn goes for 4.03.

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
