Debatable but I think Holder is a bowling all rounder. Watson is a batter who bowls. Plus Holder is playing this game as a bowler. They lack a batter who can bowl something other than filth. So no 5th bowling option.
Hopefully they can bring back Dwayne or pick Carlos.

Beamer, keep reading different reports on Russell. A few generic sound bites with him saying "test cricket iis the pinnacle etc" but pretty Lloyd has said he told him he isn't fit for test cricket?

Is Shane Shillingford not better than Permaul? Or doesn't he fit into the WI future?
Shillingford is finished at test level IMHO. Corrected his action, still spins it a fair amount but he's just not the same bowler. Permaul bowls well domestically but seems to struggle against class batsman who use their feet.

Apparently Lloyd called him up as he wants Russell in the test set up and was told by the player that his knee wasn't currently up to test cricket. Massive shame as he's a talent that's for sure.

is the current version of taylor the best west indian seamer post curtly/courtney or does early kemar shade it?
I was just thinking it would be great to have both Roach and Taylor in fine nick at the same time. Anyway, Taylor has had his moments before. Blowing England apart at this ground a few years back comes to mind.

Haha, top call by the commentator - it's not exactly great luck to be given not out on a ball that's missing leg stump with ease...
