[/quote]Leaving out Kanhai ... they also picked for captain Kali . Shiv , Sarwan and how did that out?
Ramdin should remember that uneasy lies the head that wears the crown if you are Indian.

Sars and Rampaul got fat on carbohydrates. Selectors like their Indians skinny and eatting Chow Mein.
Was a white man who dropped Narine.
No decent Indian batsmen waiting in the wings.
3 decent Indian spinners competing for Benn/Shilly's spot, and all 3 get heavy play in WI odi and t20 games.

* If Sarwan had half the discipline dedication, focus, and commitment as Shiv he would be playing for the West Indies today.
* Anyway, he ends his West Indies career averaging 40.01 in 87 tests and 42.68 in 187 onedayers.
RE: RAMPAUL
* He should enjoy marriage life and plan for life after cricket.

* Ramdin may very well be a stop gap.
* But a series win against NZ and Bangladesh will buy him some time as skipper.
* The next captain will likely be Kraig Brathwaite.
Ramdin shud have no fears about the captaincy..no uneasy head. he will only harm himself if he allows all of that in his head
by all standards he was and is the man for the job. merit!
he got the job by quid pro quo but if Lloyd had been chair he would have gotten the job without anyone having to make a deal. Lloyd would have done the same thing...make the best man captain and he is Ramdin.
Ramdin is playing well..keeping and batting. he may be a lil excited now with the captaincy new and all dat but he will settle down again
