This is the West Indies selectors/management we're talking about. When has Kraigg ever needed an excuse to promote his friend Warrican ahead of others? Unfortunately, Motie's performance in the last test has given him a window. It is a good test for Andre Coley, with the new selection system, to see how he stands up to that.

I will just keep on showing them footage of Motie bamboozling Joe Root and Ben Stokes at Lord’s

Anyone who knows spin bowling, knows Motie is a class above Warrican. But one is Bajan and the other is not.

There is no way our premier SLA gets the drop after one bad test. In no way is this team going to do that. Right?

According to Machel from CCP if Shamar Joseph gets picked then Motie has to get dropped..

Disagree with him strongly here. Tbf, so did his co-host Santokie.

Wow big call by the Windies they have dropped Kemar Roach for Shamar Joseph ..
Sa drop Rickleton for Piedt and Ngidi for Burger
I'm happy with that change

I'm happy with both of those sides tbh. Makes the SA side far more interesting and for us we lacked lots of pace and a fit and firing Shamar adds that in spades. It does, however, make the batting even weaker.

Burger was so impressive vs India glad he's back, should have never lost his place ..
Left arm 90mph quicks are rare.

Correct changes. What should have been in first test. Even if tough on Rickelton, deserves a run.

For the sake of all things good, Shamar is not a number 11

Seems like I was able to convince them at the eleventh hour…

All three are good calls.
Warrican is kind of pointless with Motie and Hodge but he picked up wickets in the first Test so probably had to say. Best options for both teams given that.

Yeah, sometimes he makes good assessments and sometimes he doesn’t. I would have expected him to back Motie to play. Even CI omitted Motie from the starting XI in the preview
