Would you put dasilva to open batting - chairman - 02-19-2021
There is talk of West Indies promoting Joshua Da Silva to the top of the batting order to open alongside captain Kraigg Braithwaite, this is not a bad suggestion especially since John Campbell hasn't been in the best of form recently but I would be reluctant to do this right now because Joshua is doing such an incredible job behind the stumps as wicket keeper, he is very proficient and I like the way he constantly chatters encouraging the team, to ask him to keep and open the batting would put him under too much pressure, further having him coming in the middle, shores up the batting and provides him with the opportunity to continue to find his feet so to speak at Test level....What say ye?....
