Kraigg Brathwaite must resign.
There is no defending the second test performance against Bangladesh. I am lost for words, embarrassed, and even as a die-hard, optimistic West Indies fan, I can’t defend that performance. Kraigg Brathwaite must resign or be sacked as captain of the West Indies Test team.
Thank you for your service, but it’s time for new leadership.
I nominate Alzarri Joseph as Test captain; fast bowlers make good captains; look at Jasprit Bumrah of India and Pat Cummins of Australia. I reckon that Kraigg Brathwaite is too soft, soft on his teammates; Alzarri Joseph has the aggression, will, and passion for winning.
I am not saying he should beat up his teammates, carry on and walk off the field, and so on; I am saying that Alzarri Joseph would bring a no-nonsense, zero margin for complacency, hunger for victory mentality.
Kraigg Brathwaite has to bat deep, and batters one to five have to bat deep! We are at home; we knew what the wicket would be like; how could we let Bangladesh use the pitch to their advantage in our backyard?
Nah, man, why is it so hard to perform like we did in the first test? In the second, at least 70% the effort?
Why does WI always make a strong first impression in the first match of any series, capitulate in the second, and cut it close in the third match across formats? Big up, Jayden Seales, a proper West Indian fast bowler; someone get him a long back massage. Roll on, Pakistan.

I am into Cricket,BIG time.I have travelled to Antigua and around nd the world to watch that game.I could not believed the West Indies got beat today in Jamaica by Bangladesh.I have watched the game and the stands were as empty as ever.What is wrong with West Indies Cricket? Where did it go wrong? What is being done to make the correct decisions to formulate a winning team? It just sucks,watching these games.
Nominate who you like. Nothing will change. You must hate Alzarri alot to want to do this to him. Cricket in the West Indies is dead. And the cupboard is empty. You can play as much musical chairs as you like all you will be doing is replacing one mediocre player with another. Stop living in the past and wake up.
Leader are born no made and Joseph while been around long enough is certainly not no where near a leader.
W I is in big trouble and we are reaping what we sow.
Where are the real cricketer who put us on the map can they take back what they build from whosoever running cricket.
Atlas must be upset after putting us on the map and know seeing the decline since 2000.
the same Alzarri that walk off the cricket field vex without permission? He should have been banned for life along with a heavy fine. What a low down rass disgrace
Make Hope return to test cricket give him a massive pay rise and give him the captain’s arm band. Best batter in the Caribbean bar none.
I am a cricket fan, whether my team win or not, I love west indies cricket. Yes I was very disappointed with the game, they could have done better, they could have fight harder. I believe in them. They are wonderful cricketers, we have seen their performance before. Now the one day series coming up, they have a chance to redeem themselves. Guys good luck guys, continue to shine.
West Indies team players need people pushing them for their spots.
Case in point, we have one of the most mediocre keeper in test cricket and they don’t have another keeper lined up to push him for that spot.
Alzarri Joseph don’t have all the best qualities to be a test captain.
Aggressive behavior is not a good thing for captaincy.
Let west indies do what south Africa did long time ago, and give the captaincy to a young player who’ll be around a long time.
