Shocking treatment of Pooran

AB De Villiers, one of the top batsmen in the world, was also tremendously impressed with the young man at last year’s CPL tournament in which Pooran was outstanding. He predicted a bright future for Pooran in West indies cricket. The T20 team to play India was selected recently but Pooran’s name was nowhere to be found.

Instead we have retreads like Chris Gayle and for the umpteenth time Marlon Samuels still being selected. And how many opportunities does Chad Walton and Evin Lewis deserve? Things continue to go from bad to worse in our cricket.

Meanwhile Darren Bravo continues to be punished for a seemingly harmless tweet. His batting is desperately needed in the team at the moment.

The worst part in all of this is how complacent the WI media seem to be. Exactly where is our cricket heading?
