However, there has been some incredibly sad news coming out of the West Indies camp. Alzarri Joseph's mother, Sharon, died this morning. CWI confirmed the news in a statement, adding: "Please join us as we express our heartfelt condolences to Alzarri and his family during this very difficult time." And so say all of us. How terrible.
:(
Condolences, Alzarri....
Condolences to our Son, Alzarri Joseph

Condolences to our Son, Alzarri Joseph, on the loss of his Mother, Sharon, to whom we give eternal thanks for bringing forth a champion West Indies cricketer.

May she rise like Ra on the wings of Ma'at, after a favourable judgement in the council of Asar.

"West Indies captain Jason Holder will miss the final Test against England after being banned by the International Cricket Council.

The all-rounder, 27, will serve a one-match suspension for his side's slow over-rate in the 10-wicket win in the second Test in Antigua ..."

Piers Morgan

@piersmorgan

"What a pathetic decision.
They should reinstate Holder & suspend the entire England team for slow-witted batting."

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
:lol:
"Keemo Paul, the 20-year-old Guyanese allrounder, will come into the squad in Holder's absence. He has played two Tests to date, most recently on the tour of India last October. Oshane Thomas, the reserve fast bowler, is also in line for a call-up, although his selection would weaken West Indies' batting."

"The test didn't go 3 days - can you please appeal this @JaseHolder98 ! What a ridiculous decision - where's the common sense here? Ps Congrats on a wonderful series win too. International cricket needs a strong Windies team & hopefully this is just the start @BrianLara," Shane Warne tweeted.

Holder was quick to the reply to the Warne saying, “thank you". Not just Warne, former England captain Michael Vaughan also tweeted his views on this issue.

He tweeted, “246 over Test Match .. that amounts to 2.6 days of Cricket .. A team hammers the opposition & plays great Test cricket yet the Captain gets a ban for Slow over rate .. @Jaseholder98 can find himself very very unlucky on this occasion .. !! The game really doesn’t help itself ...”

Good to know I'm not alone in feeling this law should be changed....

Make it applicable only to drawn games. Simple!

"Yet still there was no apparent attempt to get close to bowling 15 overs an hour in Antigua. It doesn't matter that the second Test was over in three days. That's a lame argument." :shock:

It was right to ban West Indies captain Jason Holder... slow over-rates are the scourge of the modern game (click for more)
