Yes but he was clearly the best batter in Adelaide and Perth.

Meh, you hate Gayle so I can see this is pointless. Making it even more pointless is that there's no way he'll be dropped any time soon so I'd advise you to deal.
I don't "hate him", i just don't like the way he's been taking the pi$$ lately, running around in Australian casino's instead of trying to figure out how he's not gonna become Bollinger's b/tch again!! 8-) , it just winds me up to see that the captain doesn't give a sh/t anymore, and trust me if his form continues in the same shambolic vain then he will be dropped, make no mistake about it.

Apparently he has been 'rested' for the 20/20 match against Zimbabwe on Sunday. This is not confirmed yet though so we will have to see.

If that's true then it's absolutely fantastic news Beamer!! :clapping: , and i'd wonder if Gibson had anything to do with that call?!! if we intend to progress and get the great WI name back to the top of world cricket NO-ONE should be undroppable, you either deliver or you're out, that's why i've been brave enough to call him and Chanders out, i don't give a sh1t if they are "big names" or not.

Hoping Dan Christian gets a go tonight.

1 win away from a perfect summer..or whatever you call it.

Yeah I hope Christian gets a game too. I wonder if Julian will go to the match if he finds out Christian is in.

If Cam White plays he needs to have a good knock. He really seems to have gone all MClarke on us lately in T20s, he takes too many balls to get in these days, it happened in the Big Bash for Victoria too.

Birt hasn't looked that great in his 2 matches yet so far, he should probably be given another chance to perform though.
 

Riggins

International Captain
Also desperately hoping to watch Christian get a gig. Surely he will play at least a few of the games. Makes no sense to pick him and the not to play him, given that it seems they are doing a bit of experimenting trying to get the team right for the t20 world cup next year?

I find the whole premise for dropping Gayle so ridiculous.

WI can't win without Gayle and Gayle isn't playing well. The solution to this is to drop Gayle?

I think Nannes is hard done by being dropped/rested while Johnson is playing.

Lucky for Johnson he has this reputation that he needs to keep bowling.. I really think that's a bit of an excuse.

Get on the Windies IMO tonight.
 

Noble One

What a catch by Smith (and Warner). Christian bowling well too. Lol at the comms wondering if he can swing or change his pace. Arguably the two best traits of his bowling.
