Alzarri Joseph did no wrong<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations to the West Indies on another ODI series win against England, our arch rivals, make this a muscle reflex fellas. The highlight of this series is Alzarri Joseph’s conduct during the third ODI and not the valuable World Cup qualifying points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alzarri Joseph is vice-captain of the ODI team, which means he is also captain. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Both captains having a lengthy consultation on field, animated, jolly, or heated is normal, the captains are fined for over rate violations anyway. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The bowler sets his\/her field and attempts to bowl to that field. The wicketkeeper has the best perspective of the shots the batter will play, so the wk will ask fielders to shift accordingly to cover gaps or scoring opportunities, all of this is normal.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, their adrenaline is firing, their mission is to hunt for victory for their team. Alzarri Joseph is an international athlete, a no nonsense man, fast bowlers cannot be nice people, the old West Indian players who fans salivate over were just like that. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

They had nothing to say to the opposition on the field, the most they do is pull up their own players, that is a norm in elite competitive sports, that sense of urgency and zero margin for complacency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discussions in the best interest of the team are necessary, both of them may have well been justified or had good ideas, but Alzarri wasn’t disrespectful to the team or anyone in any way.\u00a0<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Players waving their arms or talking a bit hard is normal because they are trying to get the attention of players in the midst of lights, glare, trying to talk over loud music and drums, over a long\u00a0distance, maybe frustrated by the chain of events and trying to take control of the situation. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I thought Alzarri did the right thing by walking away from the field to cool off for a bit and when he settled his emotions returned, he showed maturity, self awareness and restraint. Hope and Joseph are still best friends, they’ll have a drink over it in the dressing room. Hard luck Alzarri, come back stronger and better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
