Squad: Chris Gayle (capt), Dwayne Bravo (vc), Dale Richards, Brendan Nash, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Narsingh Deonarine, Darren Bravo, Denesh Ramdin, Darren Sammy, Sulieman Benn, Shane Shillingford, Nelon Pascal, Kemar Roach.

deh drop rampaul too...a most deserved drop. where Dowlin is simply a low level player Rampaul is a talented cricketer who simply has not prepare himself fully for his chosen career.

as an international cricketer a player must be fit in mind and body all the time...professional is what they call that state of being.

Ramdin is never fit, always with noticeable levels of fat on his body and at the international level has never achieved what he promised all they way up from the junior levels.

Rampaul can achieve 90 miles but so unfit he has been the most he achieves consistently is about 65-70

Rampaul must be made to fight hard to be back in contention. he must get serious about his fitness to be alwyas in top shape so he can achieve his full potential.

Rampaul has a side strain and ruled out of the test. They would have drop him anyways. What is lacking is that WI doh have a bowling coachs for ages now.. Rampaul usually bowls in the 80s (80-89) but if fitter he could push it more.

here is his bowling speed in ODI...

43.3 Rampaul to Steyn, no run, 88.1 mph, this one keeps low and nearly takes out the off stump
