AFRO's windiesfans.com inbox fuh the WICB

[howzdat]

Well, well, howzdat's pep talk works wonders as Darren Bravo guides Windes to the verge of victory inside 3 days in the 3rd Test against England Anyway be that as it isn't and seeing as how Simmonds looks like he got a mind of his own I hear seh that the Irish considering offering him a short consulting assignment for an upcoming match: Only ODI: Ireland v England at Dublin May 8, 2015 (10:45 local | 09:45 GMT | 10:45 BST).

Apparently the Irish are so very impressed that their former coach's mediocre new charges have managed to beat the Poms inside three days in a Test match in Bridgetown, Barbados that they want tips on how they might achieve the same outcome albeit in a lil lickit bat and ball game. I even hear say datzhow is AFRO once again serving as lead negotiator.

Keep watching this space for updates....

So, Afro, any news on fixtures for the A team this summer?

I would prefer to see Shai Hope playing in an A team, instead of thrown to the wolves in Test cricket, and see such a potential talent destroyed by not properly grooming it.

[howzdat]

Yes folks, even as a eater of all things veg i hafi ask AFRO are you for real?

While we wait ti see if AFRO cares to answer i am gonna say this from the get go. I only hope that Phil Simmons is not being used for some fcukery ... i mean some misguided revolution in the name of hash tag dope

Yes, hash tag I must be pon dope or something! AFRO are you for real? In the case of any dope that I might deh pon at least i can say that it's Ital. And in case any ya'll wondering if I ever consumed any carcass since my earth day the answer is yes, but soon will be half my time on earth that i ain't found succour on the back of any slaughter.

Don't get it :twisted because I give regard to each & everyone for his own ways of living ...

Respect

[howzdat]

This is a much stronger side than the two St Kitts-Nevis XIs put out against England....

What changed the thinking in the WICB camp?

When you're searching for an opener and someone to maybe replace granpa shiv then it was only logical to put out an "A-team" like side..which i advise them to consider!!..thankfully they listened .

Yes folks one of we buddies claiming to have offered 'considerations' to WI selectors. Can you Adam & Eve it? I for one is wondering ...

And less anybody ask seh is how datz any such claims differ from yours truly expressed opinion that Phil Simmonds might be worth a chance as Head Coach of Windies. All I gonna say in my defence is that his record spoke for itself and he had management experience. Besides which is how long now I declare my disclaimer

Anyway to close all I will ask is f it is reality that Windiesfans contributor changes mind of WICB???????

[howzdat]

And just in case the WICB - or any of its elected or non-elected officers- issue a press a statement denouncing this topic as representative of the dark arts of antidisestablishmentarianism, mek i ask is who the owner of this inbox accountable to on matters of Windies cricket team performance pon de field of play? And also on team selection issues?

And while we aint gonna get any answer to such lunacy mek i just ask if the inception of this inbox is one of the more enlightened acts of patriotism this writer ever dreamt up?

I think that's all for now.

[howzdat]

AFRO I just had a brilliant

AFRO you remember that trip you did tek to Ireland a few years back and how it finally bear fruit ... well tell me what you think about the prospects of yours truly catching a lucrative syndication type deal on the back of these sterling contributions I does conjure upon the pages of windiesfans.com

AFRO, give it some thought in-between the caviar and mek I know if you feel seh that the idea got any mileage?

I even remember a few years back datz how you did seh that the writer of this lunacy does mek a few jokes and t'ing So surely I can earn a few shekels for myself hiring out my pen ... i mean keyboard skills ... to the highest bidder? What you think?

Is cos you aint come through with that job offer from the WICB yet that i getting desperate.

[AFRO]

LOL Howzdat you too funny man...stop trying to stitch me up nah man?

[howzdat]

LOL Howzdat you too funny man...stop trying to stitch me up nah man?

This is why i keep saying our sides need to play more than one warm up match. The wicb must insist upon it. Our bowlers take time to adapt to different bowling conditions and by the time the first test starts it is too late.

Trust me i'm gonna spell it out for them loud and clear!...the trend is clear to see and it's not just a matter of "away conditions" because it happened at Sabina against NZ the other day .

dum da dum da dum da dum spell it out, dear AFRO, yes, spell it out to them oh yeah

This "spelling it out" wot Affers loudly and clearly intend fuh be spelling has been induced by the following match status:

Australia tour of West Indies, 2nd Test: West Indies v Australia at Kingston, Jun 11-15, 2015
The Frank Worrell Trophy - 2nd Test
Test no. 2166 | 2015 season
Played at Sabina Park, Kingston, Jamaica
11,12,13,14,15 June 2015 (5-day match)

Australia 399 & 212/2d
West Indies 220 & 16/2 (8.0 ov)
West Indies require another 376 runs with 8 wickets remaining ... mission impossible.

All i can say is that it look like Kirk Edwards bird escape from under he armpit - he uniform must be did finally get a wash - and alight pon a few newbie windies batsman.

Chandrika mek a double duck. Brathwaite mek duck & 4. Permaul mek duck. Taylor mek duck. And is more duck fuh come for sure. Is duck sickness aka "Rev-belly" in windies batting lineup and only he one laughing as he knock down the sushi. Talking of Rev, i bet even if chanders did play that duck would a thwart his aims ... if not personally then as we have seen above anyway.

On which note I will tek my leave from this AFRO's windiesfans.com inbox fuh the WICB Spelling it out subject for now in the hope that AFRO will be fulsome in his update. dum da dum da dum da dum spell it out, dear AFRO, yes, spell it out to them oh yeah


ps: where was i?

AFRO, I have an

After you spell it out to whomsoever(s) can you drop me a private message with the details Thanks. I have an idea to write some garbage under the heading of "AFRO's spell spills out on windiesfans.com inbox fuh the WICB."

I reckon i can word it up sorta like a scoop ... from the inside, so to speak, so i aint looking forward to any hollow, windbag sorta scoopy doo doos, AFRO. It must be like them reality tv shows i hear about sorta scoopy doo doos. Don't let me down? Thanks

Kind Regards

Riddle me this AssMan,

how LONG HAVE YOU BEEN Talking to WICB and what have they done in response?!!!

WI been in the shithole for over 20 years!!!

"Ass"? You still missing FATWAN stinky?

to each his own to rhatid!!

But to answer your question if me and mi colleagues didn't talk to them you would't have the PCL, HPC, Expanded Nagico Super50 and plans for the u23 competition that will hopefully come within the next few years!!..And this is amongst many other structural changes we have fought for.

Ah soon come ....

[howzdat]

Sadly, I think that Simmons is on borrowed time in the role. He ought to stop complaining in public about who and who is unavailable for selection and get on with the job. If he doesn't like the 'environment' then he should resign ... or get fired.

By continuing to be reported as bemoaning the unavailability of 'seniors' He is beginning to sound as if he is looking for excuses. Gayle at 36 is not the future. Kieron Pollard (test class?) is 28, Dwayne Bravo is 32, Lendl Simmons (test class?) is 30. Andre Russell (test class?) is 27

The most that can be hoped for with these players in the team is a slowing of the rot. They could possibly make a winning difference between close Test series' against Bangladesh/Zimbabwe and to a lesser extent the current New Zealand team who are now streets ahead of WI.

Otherwise where is the future in them players?
