Should have being given a chance

He would work as an consultant

@@igaladams8573 Johnson Charles didn’t exactly fail but he needs to exit stage, it would have served West Indies better not to have relied on these old players, Johnson Charles will bat and make 40 runs but he can’t field, he lets catches and balls pass him by , he is old and slow can’t field, can’t catch too old get rid of him.

Based on Sammy precondition mindset, I think he missed a lot of tricks, #1 After looking at the success of Alzari joseph, why wasn't Shamar Joseph considered due to the fact that they have similar skill set. #2 Hetmyer and Hope was on the bench looking at Charles struggle on slow turning pitches, #3 Shepherd was rushed into the game against England after returning from home for the birth of his Child, while McCoy, and Shamar Joseph were fit and ready to go. #4 It seems as tho Hetmyer only role was to replace Rutherford if he was injured, because we saw Mayers came in as a replacement for King and went straight into the final 11.#5 Sammy was so set on role play, instead of selecting his BESTsix batsmen in a particular condition , then figure out in what order they bat, example because Charles role is an opening batsman he was selected over Hetmyer in Guyana, even tho Hetmyer skill set and knowledge of the conditions will make him a better choice on slow turning pitches.

@@samuelbugros1887 I agree 100%

He said at the end of the day it's just a game. That said it all. No one with this view should be the captain of a West Indies team. To the captain it is just a game but for the better teams it is war. The objective is simple, they have to win.

@@quincysthillaire Well not him alone the captain and players too

Most of the pitches were bad for the World Cup so why was Guyana one of the best-prepared pitch wasin St Lucia

Sammy selected the wrong team for the Game in Guyana, Charles should not play ahead of Hope or Hetmyer in Guyana. Charles is the type of batsman who likes to hit through the line of the ball, you cannot hit through the line when the pitches are slow and turning, you need proper batsmanship.

If my memory serves me correctly, I don't think the captain or vice-captain did anything better than Charles.

@@osborneflanders7699 I am blaming Sammy for putting them in that position in the first place. The worst thing happened to West Indies was having Charles making a hard fought 40 something in one of the earlier games, he should not have played, there was better players in the end he was still dropped but I felt that was the wrong time. Sammy had no feel for the entire series. He and Powell were clueless, after all these weeks I am still pissed at everything they did

So blame the fans,board,and avoid the players and coach. Drop your reasoning if you dont agree with mw where yóu run gone 😂😂

West Indies does not have a good team. It really does not matter what people say. They do not bat consistently, they do not bowl consistently, they do not field consistently. How can they win the world cup?

@stevemitchel8853 Thanks for the comment but that is your view i share mine don't see a problem. Come and join and you can disagree at any time.

Scapegoating is a defense mechanism. If you want to fire Sammy okay, but why do not want to fire the selection panel for selecting players who cannot play at the highest level? What were the contributions made by the captain and vice-captain? What about contributions of star players like Pooran and Russel? (In my opinion these guys are not stars). They have demonstrated time and time that they do not have what it takes to move West Indies forward. Russel ran himself out rather than staying at the creese and batting. Pooran was out for zero. It shows that these guys do not understand the technical aspects of the game. South Africa gave them a lesson in Antigua, I hope they learn something from it.

Yes most times Poorna was in very early, Samuels is hard to replace

@@islandhoppingsportsCA1 made no sense to me, and as i said, Sammy was following the 2012 and 2016 script, which was adopted from Trinidad's red force success in India. And he seemed unable to see the limitations of that philosophy and tweak it. Firstly TT and the WI had consistent run getters in Gayle and Simmons. This side didn't have that. charles absorbed deliveries and/or didn't score runs and King was injured unfortunately just when he started to look very much in form. When you lose two early wickets, you need a dude to come in and calm nerves in addition to keeping the scoreboard ticking. pooran, as good as he is is not that sort of player. Hope inexplicably only played two games despite being the top run getter in the cpl. Hop was the only dude who could play a Samuels'-type role

I am trying to figure out why Johnson Charles is considered a failure. He played in 6 games and scored 140 runs, the second highest after Pooran. What about the captain and vice-captain? What were their contributions to the West Indies team? It is suspect that Sammy and Charles (both St. Lucians) are being targeted and abused by West Indian fans. As a West Indian, I will always support the West Indies team. However, would I bet on the West Indies team to win the world cup? Absolutely not. The many fans and pundits in the Caribbean who cannot see that West Indies cricket is below par is out of touch with really. The reality is, West Indies does not have what it takes to win a major competition any time soon.

@@MrChetah charles struggled against quality attacks. against england, technically he wasn't up to facing that attack and he soaked up deliveries. Against nz, i told my dad pooran better prepare to come in before southee's opening over had finished, and pooran was in by the 5th ball of the match because charles had been bowled between bat and pad

@lenpersaud8738 He needs to develop more as a coach.

@@edmondmendez3343 Need a lot of development

The only captain with two t20 world cups. If the coach was from Guyana, would you be saying he was dunce to cricket. In the Caribbean we have to support our players and coaches. When Chanderpaul becomes the coach of West Indies, we should all support him the same way.

WI has to pay attention to the development of all aspects of the game including the captaincy. They have to develop rubrics to test the knowledge of the captain. The captain must be able to read the conditions of the pitch and apply his bowling resources effectively. That lesson was given to WI in Antigua by South African.

Rovman took the time to point out that it was "just a game". This shows a lack of understanding of the meaning of cricket to the West Indies. He should be relieved immediately of the captaincy of the WI t20 team. He does not share the same values as the cricketing community of the Caribbean and diaspora.

Would you blame the Sammy for WI not being able to hold their own against minions as Uganda and PNG? I think you are on to something here. The West Indies is way behind even the newcomers in development of players for cricket at the highest level. If you are playing cricket and you are struggling with batting, fielding and bowling, you cannot win, as simple as that.
