Beamer I don't suppose that anyone is saying that Best, Edwards, Lawson and Co are in the leagues of the likes of Ambi and Courtney ..... on the contrary .... these are all young guys who are still trying to find their footing. However they are fast and get good swing ..... once they get settled and their line and length in on target the Tigers are hopeless!!!
You're right .... we don't have a specialist spinner .... something that has certainly come back to haunt us in the past .... but we have been able to rely of Gayle who may not spin the ball much but is as accurate as they come and is a wicket taker!!!
Like Hasib .... I'm not making any predictions for the series .... I want my team to win of course .... but I'm not predicting anything .... I prefer to see the performances and then discuss them as they come rather than speculate right now!!
