Dropping Chanderpaul and Gayle will not solve West Indies decline. Minus the last New Zealand series, Chanderpaul has always been one of the few batsmen to hold the West Indies' innings together. They don't have any other batsman that is as reliable and consistent as Chanderpaul but if they want him to go then Chanderpaul will have no problems with securing a contract to play overseas. Chris Gayle is out of form and Shillingford has not looked the same since his ban.

Croft also called for Gayle to go but you are silent in this . You may be wearing a fur coat but your draws .. I mean your prejudice is showing

ramesh bai:
[size=12pt]Both you and Croft are consumed by envy and jealousy. Both of you are deeply hurt over the success Shiv Chanderpaul has achieved in his career. May you and Croft continue to be mentally tortured as Shiv approaches his 12,000 runs goal with a 50+ test average.[/size]

* In the past, Croft has honored and showered his fellow Unity village neighbor, Shiv, with glowing compliments and praises.
* But now that Shiv(11,414) is only 586 runs from 12,000 test runs, which would make him the highest test scorer in the history of WI cricket, Croft has revealed his real self.
LESSON IN LIFE:
Quote:[size=14pt]It is in the character of very few men to honor without envy a friend or neighbor or countryman who has prospered.[/size]
It pains Croft to see his fellow Unity village neighbor approach #1---most test runs scored by a WI batsman in history----and so he wants Shiv dropped from the WI team before he gets to 12,000.

So what? He cannot go on forever, but life, and cricket, to quote (Sir) Winston Churchill,
will ‘KBO’ – “keep buggering on!â€
