Panel of Selectors
Poor selection for the Test Match for West Indies.
K Brathwaite Need more time in Domestic Cricket and maybe he should head to England to play 1 - 2 years there, to gain some experience, since West Indies domestic Cricket is Very very poor.
In my view He always have a nervous start. He take ages to settle down.
K Powell same as Brathwaite.
K Edwards - Made his debut against India, in the west indies and scored 100.
Only problem is it seem he gets tired to quickly and play a stupid shot to get out.
A Barath -He gets injured to much.
L Simmons - not consistence enough in Test Match. Plus he is under alot of perssure, he keeps pairing with new players
Darren Bravo - was going through a Big patch, in not getting any run, Recently against Bangladesh in one Test he found some form HOPE he carry it into India.
S Chanderpaul - One word Class.
M Sameuls - Improving alot, but need to step up more and score bigger runs and stop looking for big shots, which he throw away his wicket.
D Ramdin - would love to see him back in the 11.
C Baugh - Improve alot in West Indies, but against Bangladesh he just vanish
D Sammy - Give one good performance, after alot of failers, yes he is the Captain of the team, so he have to stay in the test side, but He needs to improve alot, He needs to play his game as an agressive batsman and try to get runs on the board, since hsi bowling he may have a good econ rate, but no pace to scared any batsman.
R Rampal - Have been improving alot recently. Taking wickets
K Roach - is currently out of form.
F Edwards - have been improving since his return to the West Indies.
D Bishoo - Good bowler, but some time really flat.
S Shillingford - Perform well before, his recently return to West Indies.
So For my Team against India for the 1st Test, would be
The Batting Line up.
1. L Simmons
2. S Chanderpaul
3. D Bravo ( prefer him at this postilion)
4. K Edwards
5. M Samuels
6. D Ramdin (prefer him over Baugh in Test)
7. D Sammy
8. R Rampal
9. K Roach
10. F Edwards
11. D Bishoo
Leaving out Barath, Brathwaitee, Powell, S Shillingford for the first Test.
I would play my 3 fast bowlers with 1 spinner. With Sammy and Samuel as my 4th and 5th option.
and Have batting all to 6th .
I would still like to See K Pollard make his Test Debut to see what he have to offer in the Longest version of the game.
Currently i would Give Ramdin The Test Captain, So i could have, one of the following allrounder in my Game, K Pollard, C Brathwaite, Dwyane Bravo or A Russel, replacing Sammy.
