The two openers are averaging 21 and 26, the number 3 has never played a recognised professional game, the number 4 and 6 struggle to average 15, and the number 5 averages 21, with the number seven never having passed 33 and an average of 14. The bowlers have a combined 50 FC wickets (between 8 used)......
If I was confronted with this team to play I simply would get back on the tour bus and go back to the hotel.
Surely most County U-19 teams are better than this?
It is a very crap team...the Leewards finished bottom of the PCL, and that is really bad, considering how bad WI batsmanship is in the four or five day game now. This SKN team only has six players who actually played for the Leewards this season, so that gives you an idea how rubbish this is.
In 2009, England played one warmup against SKN, and one warmup against the A team, when Barath hit a ton and Simmons a double (remember that?). A number of WIndies fans are asking the WICB, why no A team this time around? The A team is sitting around doing nothing, twiddling their thumbs, with no tour on the immediate horizon....
Nobody has a stance quite like the mighty Shivnarine....
