This was a good series

who is this player ?  :-\

big fat Cornwall ::confused::

I dont see a future for Hope.  in Bim they appear to believe he has some class but I dont see it.  but I am using my long experience to judge him.  I don't know him

Het needs a run lower down the order.  Het appears to have loads of skill but desperately in need of experience.  he could not adjust to the Paks/pitch conditions and the coaches cud not get him to do so.

so for me Het is not to be discarded but kept in the team. I would have dropped him against the Paks here by third test for it was clear he could not cope and would not score.  but he would be included again in a different scenario but put down the order

Vishal is a different matter at 28.  he appeared to make no impact at all in 6 tries.  his age counts  strongly against him by record.  if by 28 this is all he has done its hard to sustain him

no doubt they will persist with Powell for a while yet.  they have no choice.  same with Paint.

Jason Mo is waiting and he may do well.  at least he appears to have a head on his shoulders, the right approach, patience and all dat.

and a return to Blackwood will surely come soon.  one can only hope the drop will bring some batting  calm to Blackwood, allowing him to pace his innings..look to settle then start to  beat ball..to cool dong when its necessary and to speed up when he can

the CWI brains are either limited or towing a line in all it does that eschews what they may see as risky

so the stick with Dowrich.  Dowrich is  not nearly as good as Ramdin..not nearly.  and so they shud accept that recall Ramdin and so improve the side

Dowrich Batting av is 28:77 over all..18 something for the Pak series.  28:77 is better than Ramdin's 25:87... yet Ramdin has scored almost 3K runs in tests and has 4 tons.

but the key is the keeping.  Dowrich so far is not very good with the keeping.  Ramdin is the best available

But better than Courtney Browne..... ::LOL::
