    No keiron powell chanderpaul or shane and west indies selectors play a group of cricket toddlers against the strongest team in the world and expect to do well.no one expect chanderpaul to last for ever but he should have been given his last series against australia.both shane and keiron powell should have been on the west indies team.

    Pure foolishness. My padna went down to DA to watch that. I warned him it was going to be a one sides affair. I would rather go down to DA for a nice quiet vacation than to stress myself watching Australia put licks on our boys like that.
