Hear's my Squad for the West Indies tour:

Batsmen:
1. Brendon Taylor
2. Vusi Sibanda
3. Charles Coventry (i think he deserves one last shot, if he doesn't perform this tour, then Mutizwa shoukd take his place.)
4. Greg Lamb
5. Tatenda Taibu
6. Craig Ervine (Has great Potential)
7. Hamilton Mazakadza

Bowlers:
8. Kyle Jarvis( Pace)
9. Graeme Cremer
10. Ray Price( Captain)
11. Edward Rainsford(Genuine New ball threat)
12. Christopher Mpofu

Allrounders:
13. Keegan Meth (Another good fast bowling option)
14. Elton Chigumbura
15. Timcen Maruma

With the quicker wickets in the West Indies, i think its vital that we have a strong pace bowling unit. With the likes of Jarvis, Rainsford, Meth and Mpofu, we now have some wicket taking ability. Utsea for me has to go, and Ray Price takes over as captain. Young Mutizwa just misses out for me, as i thought he showed just a little bit of inexpeience on the Bangladesh and South Africa tour. Ervine just nudges my selection as he's got more experience, and possibly a more reliable option. :W:

Sloadog i think your selection is well balanced, but is there really no place for Sean Williams in your squad, after sacrificing a pace bowler because for me its hard to remove any of the batsmen you chose :?:

Yes good point Tailender, i forgot about him. I'd probably remove Craig Ervine thinking about it, and have Williams in. Well pointed out :D
