I want to someone to explain to me the argument that Ganga can't be WI captain because he can't hold his place on the team! Look at the WI scores and tell me if Ganga could have done any worse than any player on that team save Barath?
Remember Selectors are not psychic.
They picked men who earned it.
How could they know ahead of time who would flop.
If Chanders flops in the next Test or Gayle or Bravo - did we see it coming.
Tell me who will flop in the next series and we could replace them with Ganga.
Another thing, people coming down on Nash. But in England the team wasn't given enough time to settle in.
In Aus. he has had to put up with some flack for playing against the country of his birth (not nasty stuff but pressure nevertheless).
Let's not forget he was a consistent star when we won the series at home Vs. Eng.
This man will perform again and we should not use him as a scapegoat to get Ganga on the side.

no offense vb but your talking garbage, butts aint pick real people based on merit, on merit, mohammed, pollard, simmons and even lil bravo should be there, not to mention ganga, so come again, they cant pick all those trinis can they, dwyane smith and deonarine as well, deo should have started over dowlin and benn
So is only Butts picking de team?
Simmons and Mohamed have a legit gripe.
There will always be one or two players who do.
Dowling did well in his two Tests and has been rewarded.
Deonarine was borderline and I could live wit it.
Not ready to drop Nash yet.
Ganga must EARN it.
I like controversial's team with the exception of Khan, that's a joke.
Gayle, Sarwan, Chanders and Bravo are the core of the batting.
Pollard and Young Bravo should go at whose expense.
Bear in min that 20 years ago, you could carry two green fellas.
Gayle,Sarwan,Chand, Barath, Bravo, Nash
Now you want TWO GREEN men in young Bravo and Pollard. We not unpredictable and shitty enough??
There has to be some balance and depth. We know why Dowlin is there and Deonarine is not as novice as Pollard and Brvo II at this level. Sorry depth and balance must be sought.
Bravo and Pollard are young, their chance will come.
