Until it have 10 overs to go and West Indies batting 300-2 me eh writing Bangladesh off.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

wa u all think about the new spinner windies playing?

[trent]

^^^Permaul is a good spinner, he had some success on his recent tour of Bangladesh with the Windies 'A' team so they picked him on the basis of that...he's outbowling Narine at the moment but the wicket is really flat...the mere fact that Ramdin scored a hundred just proves this...all of his Test hundreds were scored on really flat pitches...game will end in a draw

[speedmelter]

permaul is a very good spinner since a while now i have scouted him. he is better than bishoo actually, but for some reason bishoo got picked over him. me and him was actually born in the same hospital on the same night lol

[trent]

There are alot of young promising spinners in the WI nw, that's really great for WI cricket

[speedmelter]

yea thats a great thing

gonna be another long night...

game gonna end up in a draw anyway

[speedmelter]

imagine if bangladesh really go on to wreck west indies for under 100 and then win the game

west indies needed roach or another probing fast bowler to really do anything good with the new ball. rampaul did really well. narine ended well

[speedmelter]

in other news swann seem to have bought the deed for one of the ends on the pitch, man bowl almost half the total overs (almost maximum that he could) he also has gotten all the wickets thus far

[uncle sam]

Why didn't Shiv bat? The side strain? and yes we need a Roach or maybe Fidel

[shake d livin wake d dead]

agreed^,tino is real ballz,interesting close of play score though,but I feel the game would draw.

[Dizzy28]

So Day 5 and even though 1200 runs were scored for 20 wickets Bangladesh in with a chance. West Indies do make things interesting rather than boring.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

in other news,nice knock by Yuvraj and good allround performance by India thus far.

[speedmelter]

england arse in sheit!! they need long innings from cook and pieterson and maybe someone else

[trent]

Well, u can always depend on WI to bring a boring test match to life...
Congrats to Powell!
Lets hope Chanders is well enough to bat if needed...

[speedmelter]

i dont think we will lose the game doh even if we get bowled out during the first session, all we would need to do is put permaul and narine to bowl all day with the field spread

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Congrats to Powell!

he is always needed.

[uncle sam]

^ he is like d backbone for WI Tests...

[X_Factor]

anything less than 300 lead and bangladesh would feel they have a chance
especially if they bat early in the 2nd session

[*$kїđž!™]

hope chanders is good and can bat if needed////

well chanders came in last.......265 / 9 lead of only 236,,,,,

somehow i am uneasy with this small total...

[speedmelter]

rite now west indies wishing they could get the wickets they didnt use in the first innings

[trent]

GAME ON!!!

[equipped2ripp]

more like GAME OFF...

[trent]

Gazi real get on, 6 wickets!

[*$kїđž!™]

244 for a bang win....

[speedmelter]

my money is on bangladesh >.<
im liking this though, sammy and his assness! declare the first innings like a BUGWAAANAAA and didnt contribute anything. sigh the players dont even look confident. west indies need someone to save them yes

[trent]

more like GAME OFF...

lol
Apart from Powell and Bravo, WI batsmen really dissapointed in the second innings, they mite regret declaring their first innings...

[speedmelter]

one out!!! 10/1 and jackass sammy miss a catch couldve been 2 down

[trent]

Only 9 more to go!
In other news, Eng are 70/5 vs Ind
