Nah, stick a fork in him.Add Jerome Taylor
The general feeling among the fans is that he cbf anymore. Just dug up this from Roseboy, posted earlier this year:Why? Granted he's played nearly no cricket all year but I hope he plays a part in the Windies future.
The end of that post is vaguely promising I guess but I'd personally be pretty surprised if he played Test cricket ever again.From what I've pieced together he pretty much was happy with the Stanford money and didn't really feel like playing cricket again. Plus he lives on the western side of the island and had his rehab sessions in the east. The current head coach was his coach in high school and lives near him and it's he who Jerome is working with now. Seems there's some effort now from him to get back to the game.
He was a promising Test bowler. He was capable in all formats of incredibly good spells. In the Stanford 20/20 for $20million series, he looked incredibly good. He nudged 150kph in one of the games and generally, he looked quick enough that his slower ball pretty much always caused an issue, much like Akhtar in Pakistan against England in 2006.The general feeling among the fans is that he cbf anymore.

Best Mankad warning ever.
I'm not sure if you were actually disagreeing with me or if you just quoted my post because I mentioned him, but my concerns aren't over the quality of his bowling. He could be Sydney Barnes and I'd still not back him to play again.He was a promising Test bowler. He was capable in all formats of incredibly good spells.

Haha, deadset legend.
