Darren Bravo for starters

Lendl Simmons at 6?
Andre Russell?
Narine?
Gayle still?

p.s - what happened to Fidel Edwards and Lawson?
 
Darren Bravo. He should replace Powell.

Fidel Edwards has a Kolpak deal.
 
Darren bravo. Lendl simmons..

roach made a comeback... Westindies bowling is their strength... and in england i expect them to play 3 seamers and 1 seam bowling allrounder and one full-time and one part-time spinner.. will be a tough team to beat

My line up would be

Brathwaite
Lendl Simmons
Darren Bravo
Shai Hope
Roston chase
Blackwood
Holder
Roach
Gabriel
Alzarri/cummins
Bishoo/Benn/Miller

Gayle: Lost interest in Tests years ago and is now 36 anyway.

Russell: Banned until next year for doping. Surprised he wasn't tested when people looked at him. No one is that naturally massive and has time to do more than go to the bathroom.

Narine: Didn't want to play

Lendl: Not sure. Think he just wasn't good enough, but I don't quite remember much about him outside ODIs.

Lawson ended up playing cricket not the weekend in NYC a few years ago and is 35 anyway. As someone pointed out, Fidel kolpaked out.
 
Bravo at 3; may be his elder brother as well sometimes, that's it.

Factual correction. He wasn't banned for doping, he was banned for not complying a formality regarding informing about his whereabouts.

Seemed to me that it wasn't for doping as he wouldn't have avoided complying consistently.

Even so, your point is timely and I appreciate it.
