Need to spend more $$$ to improve talented Cricketers to manage at the higher level.

[MrDayna]

The present selection process was not the issue, it is the state of the development cricket in the regions and the state of the facilities. More investment should be put in the pitches, as was seen in the just completed T20 W/C even the best international batters had a challenging time making runs on the Caribbean pitches

Respectful to all the leadership of cwi you cant build a beautiful house without a strong foundation . It may not get the big headlines but overtime the top will benefit from a strong bottom. Fix and invest BIG in territorial cricket from school boy/girls to club and regional championship...invest in quality local coaches and pitch preparers along with financial and educational incentives for club and regional cricketers. Do this and w.i will be on top!!!

Talent identification, talent development, set goals in stone. When you have players being dropped 6 times and go on to score 100 then others who score 50 but caught at first chance. Who records these things?

[RaymondButler-hx]

They are trying something new. Lets see how it works.

The onky thing we cam be absolutely sure is tjmhe utter incompetence of the West Inides crciket Board, the test selectors and certainty of failure with current coach and Test captain amd top 7 batting line up

[naiselrahc]

Coach here will be subjected to talent managers findings. Failing process in feel it will be. Sound quite complicated

[waynebayley]

I wonder if the director of cricket had a problem with his heart he would go and see a urologist

[Present]

We gotta try some new things.

@Mrdayna39 Agree with you on quality of coaching and development. We need performance standards for coaches right down to junior level

[GallianFelix]

This selection process is chaotic, it allows for a greater manifestation of human bias

[IZATRINIDBone]

OMG BAD AUDIO. Not professional By WICB

[FreeVortex-pyoo]

Sounds like more nonsese from clueless West Inides crciket Board.

Stats alone can't determine greatness.

Devon Smith was consistently excellent Regional and consistently getting out for 25 in test cricket.

What we need is to fire the entire West Inides Board and recruitment people onto tje Baord whonaftually know about cricket.

The selection process cannot biased based on islands.

Test team needs an identity and style of play.

All top seven batsmen should be dropped except for Hodge and possibly Athaneze. Braightwathe mustnhe stripped of Captaincy immediately and dropped.

ODI must be dropped altogethernfrom itinery as it's pointless format.

West Inides must focus on Tests and T20.

Reinvigorate test team will involve bringing T20 players in.

If Board cannot achieve his they must resign for incompetence

Test coach and must resign..This system will fail totally.

Entire Board must resign

[mikhaelzulfikar]

Coaches are bias ...should be completely out of selection like before .
..no COACH at time before ....following or copying North American other games...Captain too should not have no final say ....eg the Test Captain of WI team should have no say ....eg ...he need Tobe replaced himself

[jeffersonbancharan]

Why I'm I watching and listening.. Nonsense compounded with more nonsense..

[ragamuffinhooligan]

The political ideology of the region is socishitism & it permeates into every aspect of life. This ideology does not KISS - keep it simple sah! Lemme ask: from regional competition, is it that hard to pick outstanding players for WI? From the A team talent, again, can't WI select the most outstanding for WI? Don't WI select based on each player, their statistics, potential, intangibles, etc! That's my Jill...in the 70s, in Guyana, I think that was two cents!
