Gibson on the non-selection of Ramnaresh Sarwan:

[mapoui]

I do not see how quetions asbout gibsons competence are relevant here.

gibson ws an englnd coach and there is no reason for englnd to hire a blac man as coach unless he is competenmt and does for them the job they want.

in the first plce gibson would have had to be fully qualified fot that job. and no doubt his qualifications and preior sucess was what attratced the wicb to him. gibson resigned and came to the westindies, england did not fire him but wanted to retain him.

gibson chose the westindian job.

how does gibson as coach factor in here. one does not have to have been a great player to be a competent coach.

I tell you again it is sarwans fault. did you take a look at sarwans play and non-performance in Oz...sarwans general attitude in what we saw of him in Oz?

he was ridiculous! clear and simply ridiculous! if a player is not going to pay for such behaviour then what is admin all about then?

any other nation would have lost him for such an attitude after so many years as a player. such an attitude from a senior players is unacceptable period, no matter how good he is.

but I, me with my forgiving approach would have still picked him. I dont see how gibson and the wicb can legitimately be blamed for leaving sars out this time. it does not matter if he has been playing recently and seems fit.

sars has a history and administration can chose to distrust all they see of him if they chose too..no questions asked if they feel like asking none.

and I dont see too many questions elsewhere about the dropping of sars. it seems the dropping of sars is one of the few recent actions the wicb took that has not raised hackeles everywhere.

gived it a ride man! its sars fault. i did not think so at the start but I reaised it as i went along. let sars try to regain a place in he side if that is his wish. it should not be difficult. all he has to do is get truly fit and score runs regionally and the place is his again

I wasn't reffering to Gibbo but since we talking...

Gibbo was the bowling coach for England that's it! How long he had the England job for? Who mek him head coach? What is Gibbo track record as coach man? is he fit to coach?

Mappy...here are my questions again..lets take em one by one

where is Sars fitness report? What about the misdiagnoses of Sars injury by WICB mgmt touring party? Why cricket Australia had to foot Sars medical bills ? What is WICB doing to keep their second best player match ready?

What is the criteria for selection? How do you justify Sammy, Baugh, Smith and Thomas selection?

Is Sarwan unfit because he is NOT playing on a level playing field?

Mappy...here are my questions again..lets take em one by one

where is Sars fitness report? What about the misdiagnoses of Sars injury by WICB mgmt touring party? MISDIAGNOSIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. THERE IS NO GURANTEE DAT A DIFFERENT DOCTOR WOULD HAVE PRODUCED A BETTER DIAGNOSIS. THATS WHY WE ALWAYS GET2-3 OPINIONS, NOT JUST 1

Why cricket Australia had to foot Sars medical bills ? HOW RELEVANT IS THAT QUESTION? HOW DOES IT IMPACT SARS NON SELECTION? ENLIGHTEN MIH!

What is WICB doing to keep their second best player match ready? SARS IS NOT A BABY. HE IS RESPONSIBLE BASICALLY FOR HIS OWN HEALTH. THE WICH IS RESPONSIBLE TO AN EXTENT. IF WICB HAS BEEN NEGLIGENT WITHIN ITS SPHERE THEN YOU HAVE A CASE. BUT TO WHAT EXTENT HAS SARS BEEN NEGLIGENT OF HIS OWN HEALTH?

What is the criteria for selection? How do you justify Sammy, Baugh, Smith and Thomas selection? i CANT JUSTIFY THOSE SELECTIONS! I HAVE CRITICISED THE WHOLE SELECTION. RATHER I AM NOT INTERESTED. I DIVORCED MYSELF

Is Sarwan unfit because he is NOT playing on a level playing field? WHO KNOWS WHAT THE PLANE OF THE FIELD IS? NO ONE EVER KNOWS THE TILT OF ANY FIELD. BUT MAN HAVE TO DO WHAT HE KNOWS GIVES HIM HIS NEST CHANCE. SARS DID NOT DO THAT IN OZ. HE DID THE OPPOSITE AND IS PAYING A PRICE. I EXPLAINED THAT AS MY OPINION ALREADY

[mapoui]

and do you kow if medical autralia submitted a bill to the wicb for the cost of sars treatment?

I would wager that they have!

[Googley]

Sars average 57 against SL....

[BallOil]

Googs...the stat is fit bro! I'm waiting for the WICB fitness report on Sars that seh he is unfit. After all you can't seh man unfit without proof or test unless em talking out of em ra$$

[Googley]

Man look, they have no answer! how can an unfit player captain the local side to a T20 championship and them compete in the T20 tourny in SA? And he made runs too!

They will be no fitness report! There was and will never be any!

[BallOil]

meh hear dem have bush doctors on staff
