FAZEER IS BIGGEST BLIGHT IN CRICKET HISTORY DRED. SWEAR WHEN HE COMMENTATING DE OPPosition have twelve men

[The Paleontologist]

Fitting end to misbah's and younis' careers. Ends a 59 year old winless streak on west indian soil.

[meccalli]

Blight? lol, Gabriel swinging like that surely had nothing to do with it.

lolol ok. Boss, when fazeer commentating, strange tings does happen. I remember in 1998, Port Elizabeth, Lara was on 60 something and looking real good.Fazeer comes on the radio and Allan Donald bowls a trader bullet of a bouncer, out of nowhere.Then I realized fazeer' s powers .Anyways, glad we lost, if we drew the series it would have given Dave Cameron's team legitimacy.

only good thing in this windies side is R.Chase...shaping up to be a good allrounder

Quite a few not only him. He is probably the brightest prospect. Still cant believe that we lost that match in the last over...wtf.

Yes he really came good, I also felt Jason Moh'd should hav been given a chance in the Test series seeing how good he performed in the limited overs vs Pak.
Singh looked clueless and Hetmyer's time will come eventually.

Australia looking really good to take this. With the squad with the likes smith, finch, lynn, henriques, maxwell, head, starc and the great shortman (warner).
These players coming out of the ipl would be in good touch.

As much as I want to blame Gabriel for his loss of senses [may be he should shoulder some blame] on that last ball of the penultimate over should it have even come down to that?? We have a team with specialist or allrounder batting up to Holder yet we were depending on the #11 to save the match!!

Thus far Singh and Hetmeyer have looked hopelessly out of their league at this level........just like Chandrika did when he got his chance. Our first class cricket isn't good enough if these are the best of the lot.

Dowrich, who was picked ahead of Ramdin because of batting has not shown he is batting any better than Ramdin did whilst clearly his glovework is not up to Ramdin's standards. Do we pick a keeper to get us 10 more runs battingwise whilst giving away 50 through poor glovework??

I still am liking the fight of the team though. I think the results of the series may have been different if Bravo was there at 3 though.

[trent]

I share all those same views^

REEL TALK. I would pick dowrich solely as a batsman. De man cant catch a cold. Right now in the west indies team, i have five trinis. ramdin ,lil bravo, pooran, j mohammed gabriel. but the current team is almost completely a creation of spite. hety need some serious work and vishaul singh bats like keppler wessels with autism

[uncle sam]

We definitely need a better glove man. I'm not sure if that person is pooran either. Ramdin is the best in the WI but his average doesnt convince me that he should be on the team. where is Dujon when you need him

Ramdin has the poorest average of all international keepers (at the point in time when Brendan Taylor was there for Zimbabwe) however I am not certain who in the Caribbean is really better than him as a batsman? I agree Ramdin has tremendous room for improvement however when your next best candidate is also very poor then spite is the only reason to keep a man off the team.

[Dizzy28]

Mumbai getting rough up in this first qualifier. As the leaders from the group stage they will get a next bite at making the finals though.

[The Paleontologist]

They gave away too many runs in the last 2 overs. Hopefully they learn from their mistakes and take home the trophy

[Mercenary]

Clueless? Pakistan made him look like a dunce.

[Dizzy28]
