Good move

good pik.  now drop the captain.  keep Carlos.  captain by committee or give it to Paint.

Perfect selection for Sabina Park pitch.

in tandem with 90mph Gabriel on a fast bouncy track :

Just what the doctor odered !

I would love to play Miguel Cummins as well : at Sabina

I see a poster say he just got a hammering where did this happen


anyway I don't think he will take the field Cummins will

He got spanked around pretty good against the Tallawahs:

Caveat of course being that it was T20 cricket.

I also agree that I think Cummins will probably get the nod given that he was included in the squad for the first Test, but I would really like to see what Joseph and Gabriel can do when bowling in tandem. Gabriel's pace did cause them some troubles in the first Test.

Leon Johnson has to be selected, doesn't he?

I also wud give priority to the more experienced Cummins.  he shud have piked up mucjh on his Oz tour so lets see.

but I agree with ketchim here..play all three at Sabina...which means Carlos is dropped as well

Chase is a problem.  in the situation he looks like a most useful player..especially f Indian batting machine gets going again.  Bish would need help.  but I think a 3-prong is the better way to go in Jamaica
