LiL Bravo replacement NAMED !

We have to think : Steyn , Mokel , Philander !

Therfore we need patience and crease occupiers :

Dwayne Smith is in form but does he have the 5 Day Temperament ?  :-\

Only  3 Bats come to mind : Braff , Nars and Fuda .


Braf already in the squad  ! Shiv will be there ...

Eh heh!!! ..... ain't got dat 5 day stamina anymore .. 

But when, in December 2003, he was called up to join the West Indian Test squad in South Africa, ...... he brought the calypso back to Caribbean cricket with a wonderful debut century. Smith had been given a surprise opportunity - ahead of his Grenadian namesake Devon - when Marlon Samuels flew home with a knee injury.Source

Long time since then and he's proven his capabilities and in-capabilities !!! .... Matrix !!! 8)

Rule out any thoughts of Sarwan....  :-[

Lil Shiv

Will go for Fresh Blood in Jonathan Carter. Besides batting he can be handy with his medium pace (4th bowler). Deonarine had his opportunities a plenty & did not do justice. Fuddauddin is very weak against short bowling & Simmons don`t have mentality for Test. Won`t mind if Dwyne Smith is given another chance now.
