I think Gabriel has done well enough to get another. but I dont care if he gets dropped for any of the probables or for Narine.
they are all worthy

* With the WI winning the Trinidad test, and with Gabriel taking 4 wickets in the test, there is a strong likelihood his Trini skipper will keep him in the team.
* Taylor got 6 wickets, Roach 5, Benn 5 and Gabriel 4
* Gabriel deserves another test.
* There is no guarantee Holder or Carlos would do better than Gabriel in Barbados.

RE: SUNIL PHILIP NARINE
* No way he'll replace work horse Benny.
* Only 1 spinner will play at Kensington.
* Sunil Philip Narine should stay home in Trinidad and make love to his lovely wife----then prepare for the T20s.

and look at the win Rev..it was kinda easy. west indies demonstrated all kinds of superiority
my argument has been: properly led and feeling good about itself this west indies can much better than we have been doing..up to about 4-5 in the list

* CLick on the link to see the test team rankings----WI is ranked #8
http://www.espncricinfo.com/rankings/content/current/page/211271.html
* This WI team has the ability to be ranked #6
* It will take a lot of effort to crack the Top 5

THE #4 WI BOWLER
* As poorly as Shannon Gabriel looked---he still picked up 4 wickets.
* Anytime a team's #4 bowler can pick up 4 wickets in a test----that team will do well.
* Recently the WI's #4 bowler was Darren Sammy.
* Sammy struggled to get 2 wickets per test.
