CGI, GCB congratulate Jaguars, our historic 2014/15 Champions

yawn ! Lemme know how many Maroon CAPS they are awarded !!

Individual Guyanese batsmen havent been too consistent with the bat. My gut tells me Chandrika has been the most consistent, always good for a 40-60, but unable to go higher. Chanderpaul wasn't taking this tournament seriously, and only went into superstar mode when games became important.

Permaul and Bishoo have been excellent with the ball. Leon Johnson has been disappointing. Deo started well, with some big scores, then faded.

Barbados has a bowler, Warrican, who has been taking big multiple-wicket-hauls consistently. Khan's been taking lots of wickets too.

Paint, Dowrich, Jason Mohammed, Chase, Devon Smith and Hope have been consistent with the bat, with Paint and Devon Smith being head and shoulders above the rest, stats-wise.

Blackwood has been disappointing. Shannon Gabriel has been disappointing. Tino Best has been disappointing. Makes you realize WI selectors pick the worst possible bowlers for international status.

Honestly, an all Guyanese/Barbados WI Test team will do better than our current West Indies team, with maybe Darren Bravo/Samuels thrown into the mix.

yuh only spouncing up ketchim with his insular nonsense..with that bim/BG team idea.  but I guess yuh only using the idea fuh comparative purpose, to expose how rotten the west indian selection fuh the cup really was.

good!  no spounce fuh impse an' dem ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL::

Barbados got the best pace bowlers and best test batsmen in the region.

Guyana has the best spin bowlers and second best test batsmen in the region.

Trinidad has a handful of decent batsmen (Evin Lewis, Jason Mohammed, the Otleys) and Narine.

Jamaica stopped caring about this tournament.

Nobody else consistently performing.

The selectors should go in with this test team and batting order:

Paint
Holder
Samuels
Bravo
Dowrich (wkt)
Chanders
Leon/Blackwood/Hope
Bishoo
Permaul
Cummins/Cottrell
Taylor/Roach

The selectors won't do this though. They will play Ramdin and they will play one spinner. So damn boring. West Indies need to stop playing Holder low down (he will become a passenger like Sammy) and switch to a 2 spin attack. And stop selecting an unfit Roach.

Chanders need to retire fast. We got too many promising young people to blood, and at home is the perfect time.

I hope Dowrich and Hope get a game. Permaul and Bishoo need to play all tests together too. The selectors need to think outside the box.

Shane Dowrich ( ramdin back up keeper)

Ramdin gotta stay for TEST

Give Ramdin 2 tests, then, and Dowrich one.
