Logan Van Beek!!!!!

Just read about the match.

Ironically he is also the grandson of the late Windies' (and NZ) keeper Sammy Guillen.

He lives in Wellington though.

Proud West Indian Logan Van Beek SLAMS West Indies, how ironic

Gary Stead's thoughts this morning, "He can replace Macewell in our World Cup team".

We’ve just witnessed peak van Beek.

 

[ataraxia]

They have but they want even no11 player to hit 30 runs. That 's the only reason why Alzari is still considered. He can also bat a bit. They have Chemar Holder, Oshane Thomas, and jayden Seales. But they always play bowling all rounders like shepherd ,holder or paul.

yeah they should drop the guy who has been their best odi bowler in the last 3 years for a guy who hasn’t played a professional match in 2023 in Thomas or a guy who has played a total of 1 professional match in 2022 in Holder, makes total sense

 

[straw man]

What a game. Highlights are pretty great for those like me just catching up on it.

Man understand what i am trying to say, I am too a very big fan of Alzari Joseph. I am just criticizing WI cricket board that they select bowlers on their batting ability. That's why I sarcastically said that If Alzari was a proper no. 11 player maybe they would have dropped him too even though he is their only bowler with some pace and aggression.

A complete reset is needed. We lose anyway so fans will have more patience if we just reset our bowling attack and approach. Less all-rounders, more specialists.

That's what I am Saying. They should go with traditional team combination. 5 Batsman, 1 wk, 1all rounder mainly bowling All rounder and 2 spinner and 2 quicks. WI even has an opener who can bowl 3-4 overs so that's a positive for them.

Asalanka is really underrated hey , absolute gun middle order batter

 

[Fuller Pilch]

What a fight back from Scotland. This is a huge game too for the tournament/WCQ.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

SL all out for 245. Scots must be favourites from here, but how will they cope with the SL spinners?

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Sri Lanka are in big big trouble
