    *Official* Pakistan in Florida and Trinidad T20s/ODIs Tour 2025

    Not good, we are getting a crazy amount of injuries and losing almost every toss at the moment. Bit of a cursed home season. At least we may get to see a new face and see how Layne goes.

    *Official* Pakistan in Florida and Trinidad T20s/ODIs Tour 2025

    I agree it's stronger than the current t20 side but we still have an issue with our bowling. It still looks really weak to me. Apart from Blades, we're notbreally trying anything different, which concerns me tbh as our attack needs a drastic rethink.

    *Official* Pakistan in Florida and Trinidad T20s/ODIs Tour 2025

    I agree. They last two series have been strange, like Sammy has either lost the plot or is trying to be too clever. If he is data led, than why on earth doesn't Shai open? If he us data led, then why bring in Chase evo is a terrible finisher and bow has the ignimony of being retired out twice...

    *Official* Pakistan in Florida and Trinidad T20s/ODIs Tour 2025

    I'll be looking for the following in CPL: - A dominant number 3 - An off spinner better than Chase - A leg spinner - Left arm seamers - Death bowlers of any variety

    *Official* Pakistan in Florida and Trinidad T20s/ODIs Tour 2025

    For me it's... (second choice in brackets) Evin Lewis (Alick Athanaze) Shai Hope (Jewel Andrew) Sherfane Rutherford (Kyle Mayers) Rovman Powell (Jewel Andrew) Shimron Hetmeyer (Kyle Mayers) Romario Shepherd (Mathew Forde) Jason Holder (Matthew Forde) Gudakesh Motie (Roston Chase) Akheil Hossein...

    *Official* Pakistan in Florida and Trinidad T20s/ODIs Tour 2025

    That is actually my biggest worry at the moment. Sammy is making some decisions that are making it harder for us to win. We have 5 first choice players injured at the moment, so I get that we are having to try things, but Carty was a wasted slot. Also Chase coming in when 80 odd is need...

    Thank God, we won a match. Never thought it would happen again.

    I'll rephrase. His lack of ambition when it comes to playing in maroon.

    Still haven't recovered from his decision tbh. I verge between missing him and anger at his attitude and lack of ambition.

    I think deep down we all know that reason is highly plausible. In fact, I prefer that explanation than any cricketing one because it makes more sense.

    St Lucian massive. Its a friendship thing, there is no other explanation at this point. Also, I'm starting to think Shai is a bad t20 captain. How the hell can you play a left arm Spinner and not bowl them? Really crazy. We got rid of Rovman for this..... My other thought is that we have...

    Yeah Zach Carter. Massive hitter, possibly the biggest I have seen at under 19 level. Not ready yet though.

    Windies Team Discussion, and Other Related Things Thread

    Ignoring off field considerations, I understand Shamar coming in to replace Alzarri. He's nearly as quick and can strike some boundaries if required, so it's worth a go given the lack of T20 ready 140kph plus options at our disposal. Is it possible that our depth is so bad that Charkes or...

    I hope they open with Jewel and Hope, or Alick and Hope. Charles is just being gifted retirement contributions by Sammy.

    Johnson Charles........ I need a break. This last 6 weeks of cricketing nonsense is killing me.

    I actually think CWIs marketing has got slightly better in recent series. It started from a low base though, and the lack of timely squad announcements is infuriating.

    *Official* Australia Tour of West Indies 2025

    We are experts at losing in multiple categories. Matches, tosses and also match fees for slow over rates. Not the best tour to watch if you're West Indian.

    Purely a guaranteed win on the teams record, I guess.

    *Official* Australia Tour of West Indies 2025

    We just went an entire tour losing every friggin toss....during a whiteball series where the team batting second is highly likely to win. If God were ever sending a message to West Indies management, players and fans, this is surely it.

    *Official* Australia Tour of West Indies 2025

    I agree to an extent because I dont think our T20 batting is that great at the moment, especially without Pooran anymore. But our red ball bowling has the skills etc required to be great in that we have the guy who swings it more than anyone else according to hawkeye in Seales (not just in...
