Replacing Dowrich : injured glove hands !

Match is on the 10th or a few days away ...

Pooran is a keeper
Brooks is a keeper
DaSilva is a keeper

Brooks in the XI but has Failed in 2 innings with Bat
Pooran batted so,so.... with the A team in NZ
DaSilva is with squad in dug out but yet to earn a Debut cap
but New Zealand is a cruel place to be capped !!
we have NOT won a TEST there in over 25 years ~

A place should also be made for Romario Shepherd.

Just made a Ton with the A team : where Pooran high score is 35....

but to DROP a bowler for an all rounder .....hhhhmmmmm

Roach, Gabriel, Holder and Joseph : is our 4-Pong !

I am hearing that Roach will NOT be available for 2nd Test

So, CAP Romario Shepherd : he is quick and in form with the Bat !

and must be brimming with confidence and Pride

based on his Pic while raising bat for his 133

Pooran has the potential to be a great test batsman, but fast tracking him into the test team with barely any FC experience is madness.

Keemo Paul actually SWINGS th ball

which appear to be the Delivery that taking MOST wickets...

No harm in moving him from the Reserves to the playing XI ~

BOTH Roach and Dowrich ~

Joshua Da Silva, the 22-year-old from Trinidad & Tobago, has been added to the 14-man squad and is in line

to make his international debut as Dowrich's replacement behind the stumps.

West Indies have concerns over the fitness of Shimron Hetmyer and Keemo Paul.

Hetmyer sustained a concussion during the T20Is series and is still being monitored

Keemo Paul is recovering from a groin strain

and both will be assessed nearer the start of the Test.

Guyana players are needed, badly ~

failing which, more Innings defeats will occur !

Captains from Guyana are also proven to be successful
