Just arrived back in Adelaide on a flight from Sydney - as I was collecting my luggage, who should I see but the West Indian cricket team. I didn't recognise too many faces.........
Batting and bowling take some God given natural ability to start with. Fielding is the one phase of the game a player can make huge improvements if he’s willing to put in the work.There’s just so many little things that other countries don’t do that the best teams do, that are IN their control, that they overlook and it is mind blowing that they don’t.
West Indies when they dominated: they were tough and they imbued their cricket with a particular attitude and once Australia ‘got’ that and replicated it they too matched them. SA were Australia’s closest competition for most of the 90s and it was because they fielded well and they weren’t profligate with things like extras and they were fit and ready made like Australia’s players. England finally got competitive when they started to play attacking cricket and field well and get in Australia’s face and bowl fast and India have started to win abroad (not right now admittedly) once they realised they HAD to field better, bat better and develop more fast bowlers to match the teams ahead of them.
It isn’t rocket science yet sides still don’t seem to take those simple steps that they have some control over. It doesn’t have to be ALL of them - you can’t just manufacture great attacks, 10 great fielders, 6 batsmen that can handle foreign conditions, a squad of hardened tough as nails cricketers etc etc but you can control a few of those things at a time

Does he sing The Horses ?You couldn’t name Kraigg Braithwaite?
I'm wondering whether a player from a minnow team with a test average of 34 would be recognisable to anbody outside of PhatBoyBraithwaite is notable for never having played a single senior T20 match.
I'd almost call that an honour.Braithwaite is notable for never having played a single senior T20 match.

He was good here last time Phat, hopefully he continues that form. How are the bowlers looking with so many unavailable? Joseph replacing Joseph makes names easy at least.Whoever he plays for and whatever he scores, he made a test century here 12 months ago and has been touring here for nearly a decade. And he actually does well when he plays here.
I’d have thought most cricket fans would have some awareness

I would have thought that the bowling is just ok? Alzarri Joseph and Roach have plenty of experience. It’s a shame that Seales is injured, but it sounds like Shamar Joseph has some talent. Kevin Sinclair also should be a capable international cricketer.Concerning is something of an understatement: not so much the figures but the lack of experience for most of them. It will be a big shock to the system
Hopefully they’re able to play beyond their collective experience. Will help if the batters can give them something to bowl at.Concerning is something of an understatement: not so much the figures but the lack of experience for most of them. It will be a big shock to the system
