He will be very good no doubt. But i would back Asif & Roach to be bigger standouts than him TBH.

Imo Bollinger has benefited from facing weak opposition thus far, it's one thing doing well against a weak Pakistan batting line-up and West Indies reserves and it's another thing doing it in South Africa, in the ashes when your side is in trouble and of course against India, lets see how he does against the top sides first, personally i think he'll get found out.

Indeed. I'd be stunned if Bollinger plays againts a strong side & doesn't do well.

Hinds and Nash need to come in for Morton and Dowlin....
The 'youngsters' Deonarine and Simmons aren't exactly setting the world on fire, though.
Good to see Smith coming good with the bat, finally.

That 'idiot' Gayle has a better record as Test captain than Lara, Adams, Hooper, Walsh, or any other captain since richie Richardson....Do you know what "inconsistent" means?the man is a clown it's as simple as that, it's all about what "mood" he's in on the day, nothing else and more often than not we're paying the price for it, i'd take Barath over that idiot anyday of the week because he actually puts some thought into what he's doing at the crease.
The problem with the Windies is that this inexperienced lineup is over-reliant on him right now.

Well, you clearly know more than the rest of us....Don't be silly you know his say matters
Gayle is good friends with Hinds and Nash, so if he was the only selector, both Jamaicans would've been in the side.

I don't care what he's done "as captain" Mike the guy simply can't be trusted now IMO, how the hell is he gonna claim "we'll win 4-1" and perform so atrociously himself? i'm sorry to be so blunt but excuses like yours is the reason why we haven't moved forward for years.. "oh he done well a few tests ago so he has to stay in", until we put pressure on these "stars" to perform they'll continue to take the piss out of the great WI shirt.That 'idiot' Gayle has a better record as Test captain than Lara, Adams, Hooper, Walsh, or any other captain since richie Richardson....

Until we have a settled side who are capable of putting up a decent fight it probably doesn't matter who's captain, but to answer the question i'd give it to Dwayne Bravo because whether it's with the bat or bowling more often than not he turns up to the party, which is what they call leading by example.If Gayle is too inconsistent to lead the side, who would you have? Ganga?
