Who do you think will get the nod to bat at no. 6 in the Windies??

Martin Love or Darren Lehmann??

You could argue that Love has done enough in his debut to warrant staying in the side- but Lehmann would have probably still been in the side if he wasn't injured.

[Of course they both might play if Damian Martyn's finger is too bad to go!]

Love for me, showed enough in his first 2 tests plus my QLD bias wants him in the team. :p

Martyn is out of the earlier games due to the broken finger.

Lehmann is a better number 6 than Martin Love. I would play Love at number 4
 
Martyn will still play the first test. He played the world cup final under pain and will play a 5 day test (if it goes that far) without consideration. He is just catching a later flight out.
 
Love should get it infront of Lehmann because he is just such a simple batsmen. Lehmann is very unorthodox and has been great at state level, but has not taken his chances in the test scene, whereas Love did very well in his two tests.

Lehmann will get the spot though. I think the selectors have a feeling that his paid his dues hwne probably deserved a lot more shots than he did get.

Either way though they might both get in as Martyn could be out for quite a while..
 
Darren Lehmann would get my vote but he needs to start making some big scores otherwise he will be dropped. The other thing which helps Lehmann is that he adds some variety to our bowling attack with his left-arm spin.
