As I said in my post to Exile who remarked that Samuels was not consistent, it is impossible to get consistency when they only throw you a bone occasionally. he should have played in every test v Pak and India. A 78 n.o. (which Gavaskar said was tantamount to a century in the circumstances) and a 57 in four outings is not too bad. But when they start to treat you like a pinch-hitter, pressure builds and a prophesy of failure is fulfilled. ahhh bwoyy...

I get you peter , its a system desinged for players to fail and the board to succeed in controlling a retarded system.But the IPL will open up the WICB to change or its demise.THERE IS ONLY ONE ONANDI LOWE!

"It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

Yet..you are silent on Gayle? Of course they are inconsistent since he did nothing since Sabina to warrant a pick. I think he did enough to be selected for the TEST series...he does take a while to get going though.....how old is he again? Ent the Board going for youth? Whoeeee...

...since Sabina? in the ODIs? Yes, his ODI performance against India saw him average just over thirty. He had a 28 n.o. at Sabina. He did enough to warrant his continued pick but they ignored him in the very format where he has been excelling, albeit regionally. I don't think 30-31 is over the hill with the talent he has. If that is over the hill Nash has absolutely no business in the side. If Samuels continues to apply himself he potentially could give us six years of good service... add six years to your age to see how long that is
If they give him a decent run (that would have been the four tests played so far v Pak and India) and he fails then I wouldn't complain. He now has it all to prove in this last test, if he is picked. They have called up Kieran Powell (I don't know him) and Sarwan has been dropped. Of course IMO Gayle is a glaring omission but I did not bring him up in this discussion as that is a separate issue. The Board as Beckles said is in the process of "rooting" out the Don.Peter R
