Westindies's selection problems

Let me start by saying that the Westindies have been poor in recent times but to some extent it is due to inconsistencies in selections because players like Lawson, Collins have been badly treated and same goes with Jaggernauth, or Mahmood etc as they too were not given a fair run in the side. If one elaborates it one can see how bad it is as I see now Roach, Baker, Johnson, Nash being picked for tour of New zealand, yes Nash is said to be good but the question is will all these players be given a fair run. It again looks like a player showing some promise is picked then dropped after one or two bad performances like it has happened to Banks, Ramdass,Best,Breese, Washington. It is so bad that someone like Nurse who looked like a good prospect when he played in the under 19 WC as a bowler has disappeared for whatever reason, same with Washington who went to USA .One can add many more players like Macgerell, Colin Stuart who had a whippy action and was impressive in Australia in 2000 but is dropped though he had reasonable records, same with Dillon who had one or two bad series like in Southafrica in 03/04 out he goes or for the matter even King, Rose, Hendy Bryan, Black, Baugh, Anthony, Drakes,Maclean, Deonaraine, Wavell Hinds, Ramnaraine who looked like a impressive spinner but was against WICB so they take the mediocre Nagmootoo, or that dreadful Rawl Lewis who even got a recall in 05 in New zealand and again in Southafrica in 07/08 and does anyone remember Austin Richards who was picked to tour England last year but where he is now? so another player picked when he is raw and thrown out of the team.

Finally it is sad to see the Windies in decline and one has to say that whatever talent is there it isn't rightly used as they are picked when they are too young and usually shown the exit door as soon as they fail.
