Mappy:

* Do you recall part-time spinner, Narsingh Deonarine, nearly bowling the West Indies to victory at Kensignton Oval against Australia in 2012 ?

* Click on the link:

* Had the #1 WI spinner in that test(Bishoo) taken a wicket or two
the WI could have won that test.

well Bishoo is not Benn.

and for some reason off-spin always does well at Kensington.  I remember Gibbs bowling India out at Kensington.

tenks fuh reminding me.  I now recommend that Narine replace Gabriel at Kensington

* You mentioned off spinners doing well at Kensington----but actually spinners on the whole have done well.

* Gibbs took 22 wickets in 5 tests

*  Ramadhin took 17 wickets in 4 tests

* Laker took 13 wickets in 2 tests

* Benn has taken 12 wickets in 3 tests

* McGill took 10 wickets in 2 tests

* Shillingford has taken 9 wickets in 2 tests.

CONCLUSION:

* It might not be a bad idea for the WI to play 2 spinners at Kensington----on day 4 and 5 spinners will take wickets.

* I'd be shocked if the selectors play 2 spinners at Kensington.

* That would be the prudent thing to do.

* But the selectors may choose not to change a winning team.

* Personally I would play Shillingford ahead of Gabriel as the 4th bowler.

* I'm assuming Narine is still in the DOG HOUSE.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
