Gibson on thin ice

[size=12pt]West Indies coach has proved to be quite the survivor :

but he may be running out of rope[/size]

Gibson remains the exception to the global trend of a regular turnover of coaches.

The 45-year-old Barbadian allrounder had been England's bowling guru when West Indies signed him

up; according to his contract, last year he is now scheduled to carry on to October 2016.

It is an astonishing permanence, given West Indies' record of 13 defeats, three victories

and nine draws in 25 Tests under his watch against opponents ranked above them

on the ICC Test table;

major successes (five wins, no losses and a draw) have been achieved against :

Bangladesh and Zimbabwe.

He has been the butt of regular criticism

Michael Holding said he needed to "learn how to man-manage";

others have been more strident.

Shiv also hinted that his form had suffered as a result of being put under pressure by :

current coach Ottis Gibson [i]who tried to dictate how he ought to bat.

MAPPIPPEE,

You make me lugh sometimes....this is one such time.

Like you rant on about the same thing, Ketchim will also.

I do agree  with you though that Sarwan has not taken his opportunities and has not shown the mental strength to come back harder.

Even with Leicester he has continued to fail.

Sad but true.

Onto the topic though, the WICB are foolish to have extended Gibson's contract for so long, even if he was doing a good job.
