Jordan's a strange player.
brilliant with 4 overs.
anything more than that and he falls away rapidly.

The end of ramprakash and not a moment to soon, but why now surely you wait until the new man gets in charge or does he have to work with what he is given?

have to figure Giles wants to put his stamp all over the system - this, not wanting Farbrace to follow through until after WC.

I have a horrible feeling they will go for Silverwood as the new coach with Collingwood heavily involved.

just want someone with an open mind.
Particularly the short-form stuff - still think there is room for improvement to the balance of the pace attack.
Still never sure about the argument on Plunkett as a wicket taker in middle overs. Some games 4 for 70 from 10 isn't great. If adds consistency then fine but just as likely to go 4 for 50 as 0 for 80 - not sure of the merits of that in a knock-out tournament.
Also needs someone that is prepared to listen Morgan. His leadership of the side recently shows he really gets the short-form side and needs to be the major voice in that area.

Yep garbage.
Heavily reliant on Gayle.
Roy had held that catch early in 1st ODI and we'd have won the series easily. Gayle got momentum and rest of WIndies fed off it.

From what I have tonight the only one that would get near the England side is Holder and England could put out two or three teams that would beat these

It's hard to understand WIndies particularly in last 2 games.
They are the current champions so know how to play 20/20 and obviously should know the playing conditions.
Less charitable might be having a good look at betting around the games. Some of the dismissals were club cricket standard.
No side should be dismissed twice for under 75 whilst barely making it halfway through their overs on an average pitches
