Harper calls for better first-class batting standards

Roger Harper

West Indies lead selector, Roger Harper is not satisfied with the current standard of West Indies batsmen and believes there must be more consistency and development coming from the first-class level.

Recently, Harper was on the Mason and Guest radio programme where he gave his input on how West Indies can get better.

The lead selector compared West Indies to other international sides and highlighted that a number of batsmen in their Test side average in their 40s while some even in the 50s. However, in the Caribbean, they average in the low 30s and some in the 20s.
