West Indies has a decent side for the game today...dwayne smith should have been there though..

Yea same here. Good win but cpl was better wrt vibe and atmosphere. No real challenge other than Hale.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

India off on a good start...what you all think about windies ODI squad...first game tomorrow

[shake d livin wake d dead]

windies must win the England series 5-0 to automatically qualify for the world cup...this is highly unlikely.

Very highly unlikely

[shake d livin wake d dead]

so if they don't win 5-0...they have to try to qualify for the world cup by playing Hong Kong et al??

[uncle sam]

I wish hong kong et al cut dey arse lol... lose every match

[Dizzy28]

Forget Hong Kong, Afghanistan, Ireland and Zimbabwe would be in that mix as well.
WI would probably struggle against those teams moreso dependent on location (r.e. Middle East, England, Sub continent)

[uncle sam]

right now they doin shiet in England lol

[shake d livin wake d dead]

so I guess we preparing to play Hong Kong et al...d fck

[Dizzy28]

That's where WI belong. No injustice there nah

[meccalli]

That'll be shameful if windies get whupped badly by hong kong, even for 1 or 2 games.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Afghanistan could do it to them..

[Premchand1976]

This guy surely will play a big part in that too.....

[Dizzy28]

Rashid Khan looks 30 though!!

[uncle sam]

Rashid Khan looks 30 though!!

We might get whooped from afghanistan. I hope bravo narine and the rest of stars make them grovel before they decide to play

[racedriverpro]

The guys are going to bounce back for the next match

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Them fellas not handling the cold weather so good nuh

[Mercenary]

Aus look rel pathetic these days , remember wen they use to win almost everything boi

[shake d livin wake d dead]

I believe the Aussies still on the pay issue...but the team not that strong doh...I'm predicting a good cut arse by India

[*$kїđž!™]

Cut arse indeed......hatrick for kuldeep......australia hit the self destruct button

[shake d livin wake d dead]

nice Indian victory...Indian selectors have the toughest job if you ask me....the amount of players with the potential for that ODI squad is amazing...Imagine

Dawan
Ashwin
Jadeja
Umesh
among others missing

[shake d livin wake d dead]

I see Stuart Law trying to gel a team for the qualifiers...he spoke of the return of Russell and well Narine....who else could make this team...I was dropping Samuels doh

Samuels will be 38 and Gayle 40 by the time the 2019 WC rolls around. However we would surely need at least 1 senior batsman in the side unless by that time Darren Bravo and Braithwaite will be considered senior enough.

Whatever squad is selected will struggle in the qualifiers and further struggle in the WC if they make it that far. The gulf in class between the likes of India, England and Australia to the WI in ODIs is just that wide.
