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.
