****the official CRICKET thread*****

[DMan7]

TT won their 1st game in the Super 50 tournament quite easily against JAM by 5 wickets.

[X_Factor]

the squad t&t has could give a good few international sides a good run in a t20 or 50 overs

[shake d livin wake d dead]

good showing for Da Silva...would like to see him molded as a middle order batsman.....while Pooran come in as keeper/batsman

[Dizzy28]

Da Silva competition's wouldn't be Pooran. It would be Dowrich or some other Bajan.
You really feel Pooran giving up franchise cricket especially now that he is becoming one of the most sought after short form players in world cricket?

[shake d livin wake d dead]

well, he did say he wanted a shot at red ball cricket.....shrugs shoulders

[Dizzy28]

Since 2014 to Dec 2020 Pooran played 0 red ball matches in any form of the game.

However he did join the squad for the A team vs NZ A so maybe he might have a change in heart. But once again when that franchise US$ starts rolling in it may be hard to ignore.

All of them say that to avoid being viewed as selfish. You feel young Nicky P want that stress?

[DMan7]

WI at the end of the 3rd day play is leading by 154 runs with 7 wickets remaining.

[X_Factor]

they better bat long tmr, if they get bowled out for under 200runs it could be trouble

[trinigamer]

Windies 6 down already, with a 184 run lead. Bangladesh back in with a chance then.

[trinigamer]

Windies win by 17 runs.

[bluefete]

2nd WI Test match in a row I missed the victory.

Went to sleep cussing when Bangladesh was about 110/4 after bowling out WI for 117 in 2nd Inns.

Just woke up to see WI won. LOL.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

I watching the Ind game...imagine day 2 and the wicket spinning like a day 5 wicket...Real pressure..

Well done windies

Agreed!

No set of bling on the field. No set of fanciest shades either from these players. Just pure cricket played as it should be.

However, Blackwood needs a serious batting attitude adjustment. Moseley may not make it at this level. Roach's time is over. Joseph is coming along as a batsman but his bowling is way off.

I am willing to give them all a chance and let the so-called "stars" fight up for whatever places remain.

Super 50 match today TT vs Barbados. Score so far is Barbados 57-1.

For sure.

T&T just won in the final over with 5 balls to spare.

But seriously, Pollard and Pooran need to understand the batting difference between a 50 over and a 20 over game.

For real both of them out of duck due to very poor shots. They need to take their time at the start of their innings and make 1's and 2's.

[Dizzy28]

I find anyone who turned down going to Bangladesh but ended up in Abu Dhabi for the T10 league should be blacklisted.
Let those with genuine aspirations to represent WI get games. Ah mean its not as if WI perform significantly better with their #1 picks

Imagine Dwayne and Gayle up for selection in the upcoming series

Imagine Dwayne and Gayle up for selection in the upcoming series

I hope not for the test matches. Leave the majority of that test team alone.

For the T20 and 50 Over games, it is back to bling!

In better news, T&T bashed the Leeward Islands tonight.

[Dizzy28]

IPL auction this morning
Apart from those retained the only WI player I saw bought this morning was Fabian Allen for US$100k to Punjab Kings

[DMan7]

Guyana vs TT tomorrow, both teams are already in the Semi-Finals and winning or losing this match doesn't count but this match can possibly be a final given that these are the 2 best teams in the tournament and has gone unbeaten so far.
