If am 11 year old kid in the WI only bowls 145kph they tell him to give up, he'll never amount to anything

Of course someone else does all the work and ***** walks away with the credit.

Hopefully this thread motivates Cummins to bowl a wee bit quicker then. Could be the catalyst that makes Miguel click at international level, who knows?

Well Jordan and Archer would walk into that team. Crikey I bet Curtley would be better than the attack that played this game Roach apart who did try and was clearly a class above the rest.

Gabriel coming back could be fun, if he backs up his performances against Pakistan. But then none of the other guys who performed well did in the first Test.

That batting is very weak against the English bowlers.

They need a spine a spine or two. Easily submitting is not acceptable.

The West Indies, IMPO, will never again rise to any sort of competitiveness until the players are offered the same amounts of money as the NBA scouts are offering. Today (2017) players do not have ethics/morals/country pride not to follow the money

They don't play for their country, they play for the Caribbean Union

Which is why JBMAC said they don't have country pride.

Not really, "Today (2017) players do not have ethics/morals/country pride" sounds more like younger generations are less patriotic which is probably true, guess I'm not really patriotic or anything.

How many West Indians are actually earning NBA contracts though?

More than what you would think.Particularly at College and High School levels. And that is the age group West Indies cricket needs to grow with
