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.
