I sense that Gayle is a differetn fell now. this time around we may get a better leader out of him.

my man is Ramdin. he shud be given the job

They won't give Ramdin because of that Viv debacle. Sammy will stay unfortunately because I don't think the newcomer will override the actions of the predecessor soo quickly. I think Scams will eventually be phased out for better prospects but the question is how soon?

the break-up was acrimonious. I don't think they will care what they do to Hunte's policies or how fast they do it

bim would be lucky to get a pik. surely we have seen the last of Best and Edwards..both Edwards

young Dowrich and Kraigg would be considered but they both appear still un-ready

hopefully they ease up on mih bwoy Benn and he can get a T20 or 2..even a gig for some money somewhere

I expect we will get a WI side jam packed with only players from JAM and TT. Most of the TT players have T20 and ODI locked down tight already so it's just a matter of adding a few more Jamaican players into the mix and we all set. The only 2 teams performing consistently in DUNG HEAP are TT and JAM throughout the years so it makes sense!

The first port of call IMO should be the selectors as these guys seem to be in way over their heads. Only then do I see them dropping the 5 batsmen/4 bowlers experiment that obviously won't cut it against the top teams.

If this new administration is really about change & has any kind of street smarts they would find a way to bring C Lloyd into the fold & that would build up a lot of good will & get the doubters onside.

The "Test" team could do with at least 2 changes but that looks unlikely with Butts, et al.

Any of Gayle, Samuels, Ramdin or Sarwan, if he can make back some runs, are all viable alternatives to lead as they actually make the team on merit.
The T20 squad is close but the ODI line up could also benefit from numerous changes. Even shiv might be persuaded to have another crack at it.(provided they reconsider his ODI status ;) )
