England vs West Indies 2017: 5 Windies cricketers who should have been a part of this series

Denesh Ramdin

Ramdin should be a part of the Windies set-up

Dinesh Ramdin has been a prominent figure in all formats for Windies in the past few years. The wicket-keeper from Trinidad has established himself as the number one in the team.

A player with a huge amount of potential, he was touted to take over as the captain post the player-WICB crisis which led to many high-profile players ruling themselves out of playing for the country.

Ramdin has been given a long run in the national team to establish himself, but he hasn’t done justice to the trust bestowed on him. Especially in ODIs, where he’s averaging 25 in 134 games, resulting in him being dropped from the side.

However, Windies wouldn’t want to over-burden Shai Hope by making him the wicketkeeper in ODIs for the long term. They need to keep a close eye on his workload and make sure he’s fit and raring to go for the World Cup.

Windes need to get Ramdin back as he has the experience this team could do with and more importantly, his inclusion will allow Hope to focus only on batting.
