West Indies spinner Bishoo in frame for Melbourne start

This mismanagement of Bishoo is perplexing.

He came onto the seen as the big hope to win you matches and he did but feel flat, is is to be expected, when he was over bowled.

Goes back to the paucity of the Domestic game breaking down the door and he is back.

No Gibson this time, and I expect Simmons to comprehend the way in which, this potentially very good match winning leg spinner, to manage Bishoo.

Bishoo, in my view, can be a match winner but he needs to be managed well before it is too late.

Simmons and Ambrose need to be cognisant of this fact.

Hope he plays.

Badree really be slaughtered in the longer format as he does little with the ball. Having seen him in the BBL, he looks trim and fit and bowling well. He should be amajor consideration for teh shorter formats.

Permaul has developed his game and variation but, like Badree, does not do much with the ball. I believe the 2014 season saw him do much better.

Bishoo, for me, is quite a classy bowler, a very good fielder and can develop his already good batting.

You would not normally expect 2 spinners, unless the pitch dictates or the other is a batsman spinner, so my choice will always be Bishoo, ensuring he is managed well. There are times he should bowl short spells which is not really recognised. That surprises me.

From what you have said, apropos the quicks, can you see a predominanty spin attack for Windies?

the claim is for a Leggie he knows NOT the Googley

SO the English bats win by an Innings and some 240 runs  ::LOL::
