You really think Shannon Gabriel has a mean and hungry LOOK ?[/quote]
LOL ... no he doesn't .... far from it...
But does Roachie recently ? ....
Benn ... well his angry look aka indiscipline can be mistaken for hungry look !! ;D

NO WAY SUNIL REPLACES SULIE AGAINST NEW ZEALAND IN TESTS
* Sulie has earned his place in the team.
* He is a work horse, who has taken 9 wickets in the 2 tests so far.
* Narine will play in T20s and ODIs.

[/quote] why is it that black people must always have a mean and angry look?
This is all stereotype and I don't recall anyone here ever stating this about Indo players

Indos are NOT fast bowlers : duh !

Fast Bowler IMO must be Lean and angry looking and willing to Kick

ANOTHER THING: NARINE IS MORE LOYAL TO THE IPL THAN TO WI CRICKET
* And with WI winning that test in Trinidad with spinner Benn----Narine can look forward to T20's and ODIs.
* Benn will remain the test spinner.

[/quote]For once you are correct , and while I am not saying that it is the case all the time, Indos will chose dollars over loyalty most of the time.
In Narine's case , here you have a player contracted to the windies but was willing to abrogate that commitment for the almighty dollar .

* Narine's IPL team took a bet on him years ago---they gave him a US 750K contract while he was still a greenhorn, so I can understand his loyalty to that team.
* But I can also understand the WI's decision to omit him from the WI team.
* There are consequences to every action. Narine chose to remain with his IPL team after June 1st, and today he is out of the WI test team.
