SL bowling attack good enough to defend 120, if WI had batted first they might have had a chance. That first over set the tone, no coming back from that.

I rest my case.

I still feel some pride for their performance in the competition...even though its not test cricket, which to me is still the best form of the game, its still our regional team in a competition and am glad for the good performances they put out. They had a bit of bad luck in the first over and yes, the older heads should have stuck around with gayle but in the end they were beaten by a good Sri Lanka team.

I feel good also. I think this is our niche to take by the neck and expand on.

This is the future of cricket and we have to capitalize ASAP!

Chris Gayle have the biggest balls in that west indies team..no joke about it. Its a shame that WI team soo disorganized. I hope Sri Lanka buss pakistan asss tmw. these lankans, Ravan descendents are a nation full of cripple bowlers ( murali and malinga), and wierdo batsmen- jayasuriya.and i guess that is what is need now...WI need to get some handicapped bowlers...and more men like gayle.

Joker - " .. a bit of bad luck on the first over..".

Surely, you are trying to live up to your moniker.

3 men got bowled in the first over. Not caught, run out, lbw, stumped or handled the ball but BOWLED.

That is surely not bad luck but excellent cricket by Matthews.

Maybe we could now take a page from Sri Lanka and learn how to bowl straight!!!

u telling me Simmons out was down to Matthews? his aim must be really good to mean to get the ball to ricochet of the bottom of Simmons thigh pad and onto the stumps! I guess he probably did mean it since that particular "straight" ball was heading down leg as well... :roll:

bluefete · Postby **bluefete** » June 19th, 2009, 9:54 pm

Ten years from now the scorebook will read:

Simmons - Bowled
Marshall - Bowled
Bravo - Bowled

JoKeR1980 · Postby **JoKeR1980** » June 19th, 2009, 9:55 pm

Two balls later, Lendl Simmons was slightly unlucky when he went across his stumps and the ball ricocheted from his thigh pad onto leg stump. That was the end, though, and Mathews' third was the vital wicket of Dwayne Bravo as he too got an inside edge into middle stump. A stunned West Indies were 1 for 3.

Wi did good to reach the semis...., they had horrible luck in the last match though....i think sri lanka wok some obeah .......Men like Bravo and Simmons out for duck......both of whom on de top 10 list of leading run scores in de world cup......simply unbelievable.But wa yu go do ...that is de game, all that in it..
At least they moved up a few notches on the world rankings, and a few players gained more reputation....good going WI.

Oh, I'd like to visit the moon
in a rocketship high in the air.
Yes, I'd like to visit the moon,
but I don't think I'd like to live there.

Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above,
I would miss all the places and people I love.
So although I may like it for one afternoon,
I don't want to live on the moon.
