And that is a good examination moving into the Super 8s


Good game that Italy vs England

@InHindsight

An that's why we dnt need to be resting players in what some a call a "dead rubber" just to give others a game....instead sharpen up in preparation fuh super 8's ...bowlers esp!

So did Nepal...ο»ΏπŸ™„ο»Ώ

@InHindsight

Agree. When I see how they finished minus about 1 or two wickets that went cheaply. Italy shown some maturity. WI should play them with their best team.

For a moment I was thinking maybe we bring in Charles

Sampson and Seales but maybe if they only change might be force for Sheppy if so

I called for one chsnge going into this last game - Seales for Joseph, just in case he is required later. I won't have any issues with we went is the same XI though.

@InHindsight

this is T20 any team can push any team


Nepal vs England with England barely getting over the line

Zimbabwe beat Australia


whoever plays the best cricket on the day always wins

England were overhyped. That is the real issue here. No disrespect to Italy, they have been good but every single game England has played against the Associates they got a scare.


West Indies should empty their bench. We cannot risk injury to one of our players over a dead rubber.

Plenty people thought Nepal will give WI a run

Wed, Feb 18, '26 at 11:36 AM

@ray

Exactly!

Wed, Feb 18, '26 at 11:52 AM

No rest let them go out and play. Out in the middle is the best practice

Yep, this way even Charles can get game. All's good.

@ray

Yep. And had to do because of the series we had with them when we didnt play a full strength twam.

No disrespect to Nepal eh. But this WI squad if them man get it right is hard hars to beat

@Drapsey
