I SINCERELY HOPE WE GET 2 TO I IN THESE TWO TESTS
THAT IS THE IDEAL WAY TO CELEBRATE THE REJECTION OF CHANDERPAUL
SO WHAT NOW GP?
RECALL CHANDERPAUL?
SEND SOS TO GAYLE, D BRAVO, POLLARD, RUSSEL AND NARINE ?
I SAY RECALL TINO BEST. AT LEAST HE MIGHT LICK DOWN SOMEBODY WID A BEAMER. LOL
WEST INDIES CRICKET HAS BEEN COMPREHENSIVELY MIS- MANAGED BY THE WICB.
1 WEST INDIES CRICKET HAS BEEN COMPREHENSIVELY MIS- MANAGED BY THE WICB…….that is true
2 SEND SOS TO GAYLE, D BRAVO, POLLARD, RUSSEL AND NARINE ?……..you do know that the failure at test cricket & now coach wants to bring back BRAVO, POLLARD, RUSSEL AND NARINE ? so you never know
3 RECALL CHANDERPAUL? why not? he could not possibly have done any worse than our batting has been in this test.
the only batsman to perform in this test so far has been one with immense experience
THE AUSTRALIANS BELIEVE YOU HAVE TO COMPETE FOR YOUR PLAY
West Indies get beat AGAIN.
AND GAYLE FORCE IN EFFECT IN HINGLAND.

SERENA wins #20.
@Hants
Why are you not in Montreal?

Super Duper Sports Day…
Serena establishing her superiority with dismissive assurance and of course the Big Triples…
American Pharoah, Triple Crown Winner in US Horse Racing and
FC Barcelona, Triple Crown Winner on their Soccer landscape.
Super Stuff
re Cricket…David of course you are correct. Bite the bullet. Even if Chanderpaul had played and scored a century and test was drawn how would that have really helped the team long term?
Moreover, it seems that folks are forgetting that super bowling always trumps good batting and certainly will dominate a fragile batting line-up.
This Aussie attack is super caliber.
It will serve these fellows well to have faced this barrage…Brathwaite needs to show-up and most certainly too does Bravo; with some runs from Blackwood and late order power from Holder ideally we can take the Aussies into day five before defeat or at best salvage a draw.
The WI needs to be more practical in team selection and go with two spinners.
@David,
I am too old to spend a day at race track. I am content to watch on TV.
This is why it is wise to live fast when you are young and if you live to “old age” you can accept the “limitations” lol.
The West Indies has suffered the most from IPL T20.
Why have the other teams found a way to play their best players in Test matches and West Indies have not.
The best all rounders and fielders played in the IPL this season.
You praise the performance of a 35 year old Australian but cannot take another chance with Chanderpaul.
West Indies cricket needs competent management at every level. The WICB is the…….
At least you all will get some entertainment from the CPL.
Lewis wins.
LH has really matured.
Yes he has matured.
Lewis just said in his podium interview he was pleased to see Grenada flags and BARBADOS Flags in the crowd.
Thanks Lewis for acknowledging the Barbados support and thanks to those Bajans in Montreal waving the flags. Good for the Brand BARBADOS.
Yes Hants, great for LH to have recognized the blue and yellow. The investment in the Top Gear must have contributed to the recognition factor.
Agreed David.
The West Indies have a very well mannered team.
I am sure they will lose this test match gracefully.
I am looking forward to watching the discards like Gayle and pollard in the CPL.
Glad to see Fidel making a living.

@GEORGIE PORGIE,
JASON HOLDER LIVED UP TO YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
TOO BAD HE DID NOT GET THE SUPPORT TO SCORE A CENTURY.
Hants
Are you attending the Ball tonight? Here is your opportunity to mingle with Who’s Who of the Bajan community in the GTA and beyond.
They are honouring (ex)athletes this year Marita Payne Wiggins (mother of Andrew Wiggins NBA Rookie of the year) and Michael Smith both of whom represented Canada at the Olympics.
Your correspondent has his tux ready and will be on site in a couple of hours
@Sargeant,
I don’t attend these hi falutin events. Hope you have an enjoyable evening.
I here suffering with the West Indies who will probably get beaten tomorrow.
@Hants
Wait yuh telling me that you are not the prototypical Kolig boy? Yuh gotta live and see it or die and leave it….
@Sargeant, I am definitely “not the prototypical Kolig boy”.
Some have opined that I should have stayed in primary school till 4th primer and become a fisherman. lol
@Sargeant,
Another Canadian with a Bajan father who is a rising star sprinter.
Major success.
West Indies survived the third day of the Test Match.
Australia added insult to injury by making a “sporting declaration.”
@Hants
Saw his old man tonight at the Ball, well technically last night….
@Hants
Will your boys buck the odds and make it all the way to the post tea session? Will the president and his directors make it all the way to the end of their terms? Will they be reelected?
@David,
All things are possible.
However having picked young players the WICB management will spin this decision as “for the good” of the future.
The fact is 5 of the best Windies players have become T20 specialists and are quite rightly building their retirement fund.
Dowrich out for 4. Windies 20 for 3
46 for 5.
No Hope. pun intended. 56 for 6
Holder gone for 1. 63 for 7
@David.
What now. Mass resignations by the Board, coach and selectors would be the honorable thing .
@Hants
The selectors have by their selections thrown their lot with the youth. If they are serious they will have to give them time to develop. It will be a challenge if their is no quality experience in the team.
Sad, Pathetic. West Indies humiliated again.
“Australia completed a 277-run demolition of West Indies inside four days at Sabina Park to win the Frank Worrell Trophy 2-0. West Indies began the day with eight wickets in hand, but their resistance was feeble. The contest was all but over after they lost 5 for 56 in the first session, and they crumbled for 114 shortly after lunch”
@David,
A FERRARI Formula 1 car is in Barbados.

Yes Hants, an awesome sight.
CPL kicks off at 18:00 hrs today.
@ David,
A very mature Lewis second today.
A couple years ago there may have been a crash at turn 1 lol.
@Hants
Yes, he appreciates the benefit of cutting his losses.
Jamaican / German Dustin Brown playing Nadal at Wimbledon tomorrow.
FIFA has kicked Barbados out of the its 2018 World Cup Qualifiers . The BFA was also saddled with a hefty fine of $BDS 12,947.97.
Will the person or persons holding the Jack Warner delivered envelope(s), please step forward and bale out the BFA.
The ICC has taken the drastic measure of kicking the United States Cricket team out of its tournaments, because of matters pertaining to management and sponsorships. If the ICC has evidence of any wrong doings by the USA CC,and its backers It should pass its dossier over to the FBI. Let the FBI start cleaning up its own back door.
I just watched Jamaican / German Dustin Brown beat Nadal at Wimbledon.
Awesome power tennis.
Lewis on pole. Race should be exciting.
We have 100% Bajan Levi Cadogan and 50% Bajan/Trinidadian born Canadian Andre Degrasse.
Hope they both in the finals in the 100 metres at the commonwealth games.
@David,
Lewis wins exciting race today.
Had to fight but he and the team made the perfect call when the rain came.
Yes Hants but the move by the Williams cars was brilliant.
LH experienced a bit of luck switching to Intermediate when he did.
Patrick Husbands just rode the second place horse in the Queen’s Plate.
Well timed ride but got beaten by a horse with a better finishing kick.
Serena wins again. Awesome display of power.
Congrats to Serena. Onwards to the US open and become a history maker after Ms Steffi Graf-Agassi.
When England left the Caribbean I thought they were a team of quite talented guys who would absolutely take a few games off the Aussies. Well one won.
I expect them to win the if they maintain the fitness of key players. Their side has all the all-round and other weapons that a top team needs and on home grounds they should continue to be formidable.
Earth to Hants!
Maybe I misunderstood. .. Did someone say that 👑 SERENA WILLIAMS👑 was built like a man?? I’ll wait…
This girl Candace Hill isn’t easy. She is the real deal!!! Congrats to Tristan Evelyn for qualifying for the finals.
Candace Hill of the United States wins 100m Semis in 11.16 CR at WYC2015
