any mention of Selector bias in this article? an mention of insularity ?

any mention of the Barbados issue vis a vis Chairman of selectors ?

Any on the poor Head Coach and poor management of the Squad ?

Then I will NOT open your link, zac !

not in the mood for a Harlequin type of read  :-[

I open it to find :

"The selectors might need to look to someone like Jamar Hamilton

if
wicketkeeper/batsman Shane Dowrich continues to underperform"

zac, the call should be : reinstate Ramdin...but I suppose you won't !

and why an "if" : are you suggesting more tries for Dowrich  :-\

he shoud be dropped (pun intended) like a Hot Potato

I wouldn't have a problem with them dropping him. But I think he has talent as a batsman so if they give him another chance I wouldn't be opposed either. Hardly think they'll go back to Ramdin yet. Would love hamilton getting a try

expand on this : I think he is our best gloveman in the Caribbean.

and Dowrich 4 dropped catches would jave been Held

and we would have won the Series...

romantic notion yet again ! We need a proven quantity

and Ramdin fits that bill with Gloves on....

we also need his veteran and Captaincy status coupled with a few others

that is not Barbados Chairman of Selectors insular picks

I didn't think they should have dropped Ramdin when they did but I don't think they'll go back to him now either. hamilton is a good keeper and can bat. Think they'd go to him first before thinking of ramdin

http:wats wrong wih you ketchim...where did that doubt about my opinion come from ::confused::

from day one..I said that Ramdin is the better player on all counts, who should not have been dropped for Dowrich

I said it again on Saturday..that as batsman and keeper Ramdin is still the best we have by a good margin.  we keep forgetting that Ramdin has 5 tons to his name..and any repeat on saturday would have saved the game for the west indies

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."

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. This is not about our players, administrators, or any individual; it is an entire system that is failing, and together, all of us must fix it now. This cannot continue into another series; we must not allow it to.(15.07.2025, 14:52)(14:52)0
