Kraigg Brathwaite, the 22-year-old Barbados opening batsman with Chanderpaul's characteristic of substance above style,

has been the only one of those in their early and mid-20s to assert himself as a Test player should.

On his return from the Tests in South Africa, he gathered hundreds in each innings against Guyana to follow a first round 182 against Trinidad and Tobago, increasing his average from five matches to 86.

Second and third on the list are the 30-plus left-handers Devon Smith and Narsingh Deonarine :

who were both recalled for the South Africa Tests when Gayle and Darren Bravo withdrew.


Chief selector Clive Lloyd and his panel had nowhere else to turn.

Left-hander Jonathan Carter was introduced for the first time, at 27, for the ODIs in South Africa and the World Cup.

Nothing suggested he is an answer to the pressing batting conundrum.

After seven rounds of PCL/Dung heap : seven of the ten leading wicket-takers are spinners.

Veerasammy Permaul, the left-armer, is on top with 46

his Guyana team-mate Devendra Bishoo has 36.

Both are discarded Test men.

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."		(13.09.2025, 10:58)(10:58)0

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
