Dorne has not done enough to be on the national team, this is twice he failed to deliver at the WC under 19 playing with his peer group. I would prefer Parris and another player.

In the past years, didn't Barbados keep on selecting Stoute in front of Mayers and Greaves? They both had to leave and play for the Windwards and Leewards to develope,

Likewise Springher, Reifer and Blades making WI teams after not being able to make a Bajan team. Only then do the blind selectors see their talent. Friends and family first it seems.

Mayers, Greaves and Springer were up against Holder and Carlos Braithwaite for the allrounder position along with Chase. where would you fit them.

Mayers, Greaves and Kaven Hodge were the allrounders in WI 2012 world cup team where would these guys the WI set up .

@analyst-kid

Years ago I said there should be a second XI competition and /or an u23 we cannot discard players for U19 just like that nor can we allow them to be inactive my suggestion would create a bridge between U19 and senior play

Shayne Moseley is the only player selected who should be thanking the selectors.

Dorne has not done enough to replace any of the batsmen selected.

Why are these teams playing back-to-back games?

@openning

Agreed 100% with you here, I would swap Moseley with young Parris.
