That team already has about five captains in it.

Playing two spinners would be the right move, IMO, especially given England's general weakness against spin.
1st Test: West Indies v England at North Sound - chairman - 04-11-2015
England batsman Jonathan Trott talks about overcoming his stress-related illness and says he is working hard to guarantee a place in Monday's first Test with the West Indies.
If selected the fixture would be Trott's first Test match for England since leaving the 2013-14 Ashes tour and he says finding a balance between his professional and personal life has been "key" to his return.
Trott also pays tribute to the "iconic" Richie Benaud, the former Australia captain and cricket commentator, who died on Thursday aged 84.

The West Indies selectors are a bunch of jokers. Why did they leave out Sheldon Cottrel out of this team? Why not give him the experience in test cricket because he is a quick bowler and could cause some problems for the English batsmen.

Rowe , I am disappointed as well : Every nation is putting a premium on Leftie quicks.
Ambrose should have batted on his behalf to Lloyd.
e mail the Knight : "Sir" Curtly and tell him !

Well Ramdin better be confident because the West Indies don't have anything to lose and therefore they must play with confidence to at least secure a draw in the test series.
