Two people whose future that ought to be scrutinized after the game.
Russell is capable of bit hitting, but his bowling is utter shyte 90% of the time. He hasn't fired yet as the team woulda liked him to with the bat either.
And more importantly, Samuels - what the hell? He hogs strike like anything and what he did yesterday was unacceptably dire. And when he doesn't convert, he single handedly wrecks the chase. Sure he bowls okay now and then, that's no excuse - he shouldn't be anywhere near the T20 squad at least.

I agree.
We need a dependable and consistent 50+ Hitter !
Only Simmons in the XI accomplished consecutive 50s ?
SR does not need to be in orbit ...just above run a ball

Mayn I wouldn't even go that far. Either score quickfire runs consistently, or if you take time to settle in then you better make it count. Neither of which Samuels does, and yeah sometimes he does play the odd matchwinning innings, that doesn't do away with the shitty innings he's played which bogged down the whole team.
Same with Russell, can't see him of being any utility whatsoever. Although I'm guessing he'd be out once Pollard's back

can samuels be that lack of understanding in how to approach a T20 game?
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Actually that's one exception, he started of slow and then things worked out well as he started to hit out. It's great when it comes off, but it often doesn't - and when it doesn't you dig your team a deep hole that's hard to crawl out of.
