A change that could happen is Cowan out, Dumbo Watto to opener and Forrest to 3. Not that I want that to happen at all but Dumbo often gets his own way and Cowan needs a score.

Was in pretty good sheild form prior to this tour, so probably will be give the whole series here, especially if we are winning. After that who knows,dont mind if they persist with him for a few more tests

I don't want the change and I think Cowan deserves a couple more tests at least.

Shillingford added to Test squad
ESPNcricinfo staff
April 12, 2012

Offspinner Shane Shillingford has been added to the West Indies squad for the second Test against Australia, beginning on April 15 at Queen's Park Oval in Trinidad.

Shillingford's inclusion is the only change to the squad that lost the first Test in Barbados by three wickets. He took 38 wickets in five matches for Windward Islands in this year's Regional Four-Day tournament.

Shillingford played five Test for West Indies, the last of which was against Sri Lanka in November 2010. He underwent remedial work on an action that was deemed illegal after that tour of Sri Lanka and made the squad for the tour of Bangladesh in 2011, although he did not play a match.

Squad: Darren Sammy (capt), Kirk Edwards (vc), Adrian Barath, Carlton Baugh (wk), Devendra Bishoo, Kraigg Brathwaite, Darren Bravo, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Narsingh Deonarine, Fidel Edwards, Kieran Powell, Ravi Rampaul, Kemar Roach, Shane Shillingford

Can't see the extra pacemen making a huge difference and the Windies are pretty average against spin.

You mean the 3 out of 20 wickets falling to spin...yeah real weakness there. I am sorry but Lyon should only play in the dustbowls in the sub continent

I reckon they'll go with the same XI barring injury..

If it 'aint broke & all that..

Plus all the bowlers did their job,though Lyon could've been more penetrating..

Patto's got to wait for someone to get injured now..He probably won't have too wait long..

With Sunshine in the side bowling a few overs, youd be crazy to not play a front line spinner
