Re: WI Needs Refurbished Bowling Attack - ketchim - 07-24-2016
My batting to Bishoo at 7 : is good for 300 runs at minimum.
Fuda hit the 30 avg. in Test
My guys will avoid the Follow On.
Gabe will be in the squad along with Permaul
decision based on day of Pitch conditions.

But to add an extra seamer to the team, you would have to drop Chase, and weaken the batting further.

The batting is stronger with Cheesy (better player of Spin) for Chase.
and Leon (Paint and Paint2 can Occupy till Lunch).
Samuels and Ramdin to hold the miggel order like true Vets!
Alzarri is sheer raw pace for the Indians
may stay with Gabe over Delorn for his 90mph..

Out of curiosity, I checked the averages for no 5 and no 6 batsman over the last 5 years.
No 5 batsman have a collective average of 45.78.
No 6 batsman have a collective average of 36.53.
Marlon's career average is 33.53
Ramdin's career average is 25.87.
So, combined, they would be 22.91 runs per innings below the average no 5 and no 6 batsman. That puts a lot of pressure on the top 4 to make up for that.

Better than the current squad averages.
and an Innings DEFEAT
WITH a day to spare.
Re: WI Needs Refurbished Bowling Attack - dillinger10 - 07-24-2016
Bishoo might well be deserving a place in the side on his batting alone given the way he has applied himself this Test
Re: WI Needs Refurbished Bowling Attack - ketchim - 07-24-2016
Yeah he bats at 7 in my dispensation. 8)
Re: WI Needs Refurbished Bowling Attack - dillinger10 - 07-24-2016
Jason Holder has had one good series with the ball - against England where he took 8 wickets in 3 matches at an average of 31.12 and a strike-rate of 67.3.
If you remove that series, his bowling stats look pretty dire: 13 wickets in 16 innings at an average of 50.23 and a strike-rate of 110.3 :o
