Re: 1st T20I: West Indies v England at Bridgetown - Kyle - 03-10-2014
Great start, pretty convincing win at that. I think Smith, assuming that he'd continue to play and open, should go all out attacking in the powerplay. Gayle takes his sweet time to settle, so someone has to compensate during that time. Good on Samuels to fire at the right time and whatnot.
Russell should never be handed the ball, not even for shining it. He's bowling utter utter trite it's unbelievable that he gets to bowl still. If he plays, it should be purely as a big hitter/batsman - which I think he can do pretty well.

Now Poms - absolutely clueless against spin. I don't even. Bangladesh is much more "flatter" albeit slower, but they're still gonna struggle if this is how good they are against spin.
Bresnan kind of narrowed the gap of defeat, but it could've been far worse.
