Nothing special - just a prospect at the moment, like many WI players.

Anyone with X factor? or someone you can be like his going to change the game..

Put it simply any Afridi's in WI at the moment? when all hope is lost.. his the only hope player type?

[aklemalp]

^^ we have Rahkeem Cornwall, but I don't know why he's not into the team as yet...

[SportingBD]

Haven't seen him play - only heard his a special type of player.

If his that good, he should be in XI.

Waiting to see WI become the explosive team that we're used to seeing.

[aklemalp]

Here we go again. ...

Another match today.

I hope we sack our captain after the series is over.

Can't blame the captain, has limited resources.

No, no, he makes poor decisions, like saving his debutant to bowl death overs at Dhoni and Jadav...
And he even tried to bowl at the death when he is all but a medium pacer in the mould of mashrafe-eque...

Whom do you want to see as a captain in this Windies side?

[aklemalp]

^^ anyone who's more proactive in the field than Jason.

[aklemalp]

Windies have win the toss and are batting first.

Teams:
India (Playing XI): Ajinkya Rahane, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli(c), Dinesh Karthik, MS Dhoni(w), Kedar Jadhav, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Shami

[aklemalp]

Dinesh Karthik in for Yuvraj

Alzarri in for Cummins

[aklemalp]

It's currently raining at the sir Vivian Richards stadium.

Delay of the start of the match.

Do you think Shimron Hetmyer should captain the test side?

I think he is a leader, but may have to work his way into a permanent spot in the team before being considered for captain.

By the way, he's still a young kid.

[aklemalp]

Still surprised by the way Lewis is playing. He is usually a belter of the cricket ball...but this series, he looked like he's batting in a shell.

Didn't hear much of Kyle Hope, Shai's elder brother.

He was one of the top run scorers in the domestic competition

It would be good for Windies if he can cement a spot as an opener.

[aklemalp]

Well we are close to 50 without losing a wicket....don't know when was the last time of such

Can't blame the captain, too many factors influencing overall result. If mushy was the captain of WI, he would complain the hell out - saying how the bowlers and batsman keep on letting the team down and how the quality is below international standard. One would find it hard to disagree with that. Give the captain a decent bowling and batting unit and see how he does, now any bowling combination or onfield judgement is made to look poor due to underperformance from bowlers + batsman. It's always one or both unit letting WI down. Genuinely speaking, I think Jason is a brilliant player and will become a good captain.

Well good to hear your opinion.

My opinion still doesn't change about him.

He captains the team line how Fleabottomer manages Halogens team.

Yeah, but his equivalent to Timothy Picker of Sporting Bengal.

[aklemalp]

Kuldeep strikes in his first over...Lewis can't play spin

[aklemalp]

Chase is an excellent test cricket player.

He is a dreadful limited overs player.

[Shadow]

If Australia series is called off, Bangladesh should invite West Indies for a tour(preferably tests). Bangladesh play very few tests.

[aklemalp]

Such a timid batting display from the windies. ..

There's no impetus in acceleration, whatsoever
