RAVI RAMPAUL: Why Wasn't He Selected ? - Rev Al - 11-15-2013
Ok Folks!
* When Roach was sent home, why wasn't Rampaul picked to replace him ?
* Didn't Rampaul take 6 wickets at Wamkhede in 2011 ?
* Do you recall Rampaul dismissing Tendulkar for 94 ?

SO WHY WAS GABRIEL CHOSEN AHEAD OF RAMPAUL ?
Could it be the WICB and the WI selectors wanted to make sure that Lord Sachin completes his hundred this time around ?

* Do you recall back in 1995---they claimed Shiv was injured so that Keith Arthurton could play ahead of him against Australia ?
* Arthurton promptly failed and Shiv returned in the next series.

* Wise decision by Ravi. ;D
* By the way, Permaul got 2 wickets in the first test----Best got 1
* Permaul got dropped; Best is persisted with
* The Indian spinners got 8 wickets in the 1st innings at Wamkhede
* Shouldn't the WI have played 2 specialist spinners ?
Oh well! Logics and WI cricket are like oil and water.
