I have to say I'm impressed by the young Trinidad and Tobago side.
Pollard is, as I said the other day, a very clean striker of a ball and I was impressed by young (and tiny) Adrian Barath today. I remember reading about the then 11 year old when Brian Lara had him in the nets to general amazement.
He has only had 38 first class innings before this game today but had scored 5 centuries and 7 fifties. This was his first Twenty/20 match and he looks a real talent.
Such promise suggests that the West Indies decline, at one time thought terminal, may not be as pronounced as we thought. If a young Derbyshire batsman was returning those stats he would be fast tracked into the England squad and rightly so.
Barath can't be far away from a call to their national side.
With Barath, Pollard and Bravo, Trinidad are certainly doing their bit for the Caribbean.
