West Indies ponder over 'good headache' in batting order

"The good thing is that Gayle is fit," Sammy said. "We knew how well Fletcher was batting coming into the tournament. Charles hasn't got a score yet but we know how well he can bat. It's a good headache to have.

"Whether we let Fletcher or Charles open the batting with Chris, you'll know tomorrow. The good thing is Chris is playing really well. I believe Charles will have his turn to score runs at the top of the order as well. We have a fair idea as to who will open the batting tomorrow."

Fletcher's innings in Bangalore, Sammy said, showed the depth of match-winning talent in the West Indies squad.

"I said at the start of the tournament we have 15 match-winners," he said. "Yes, Chris is our biggest player, but there's no pressure on him to perform. We, as a group, know what we have. As Fletcher showed, even he can win matches. We know have 15 match-winners in our dressing room."

Sammy head is buried in the sand a la ostrich syndrome.

Ramdin is not a batter for this Format .

Charles if played must wear the Gloves.

Sammy himself MUST come to the rescue of Carlos and Dre Russ.

BraBits know the change up balls like the slower one and yorker  very well

Badree was poor one game and better in the second : dunno which one will show up .

Benn is good to go .

So no Sammy you do NOT have all match winners  :-[

well, Sammy is the only one bowling allrounder playing as a batsman! 

Charles is out of form so replace him with Evin Lewis. 

Replace Sammy with Holder!

Ramdin stays.  Regardless of the format of the game, you need to field your best keeper.  Ramdin should not be batting that high, anyway!

When all is said and done, what is needed is that the team maintains a good level of consistency and are  able to come up with similar performances to those in the first two matches. Teamwork is the key not necessarily who may fit better than who.
