WI LOSE BY 1 RUN

WI Top Order needs a shake up starting with dropping Pollard and Bravo.

At the end of the day it's a loss, doesn't matter how they lost by hitting out and getting close to the target, a loss is a loss. Don't know why people getting soo excited over all that vooping at the end there. All this does is make England replace the bowler that got hit all over in their next match further reducing WI chances of successfully vooping their way out next time.

Exactly. We like to fool ourselves too much.

England shook off the jet lag today and by Wednesday will be up and running like a well oiled machine.

What a typical West Indies game last night. Who would have thought they would have come back to loose by a run.

Indeed Daddy Dave chasing 172 and losing King and Hope early was a setback. Then we were 65/7 and 95/8. great Display of batting by Sheppard and Hosein with 72 runs from 29 balls. Good Entertainment

WI won today V England.

But an England 3rd 11 (with 3 debutants) almost chased down 225 to win.

Another shocking win for WI here. I wonder if they can keep it up and go all the way and win the series? I get the feeling this England team is a 3rd rate team as to the reason why WI are able to reach this far in competing against them. Remember we won against Australia just last year a series 4-1 with Australia using a 3rd rate team as well.

Ali will get man of the match and WI will lose this game, anytime you see a player who can both bat and bowl and they did well in the first innings in either one that confidence goes over to their other game.

Nail on head.

But Pollard batted like he cannot bat anymore. Ditto for Bravo.

Pollard and Bravo wasting space on that team.

One swallow does not a summer make.

Hosein and Shepherd should have batted before Pollard and Bravo.

I said it before, it is more than time to drop Bravo.

They needed to bring in an extra spin bowler, probably Motie or Walsh they have too many batsmen as it is already on the team. But too little too late because they could've done that for this match and would've had a good chance to win the series, now tomorrow match I predict WI gonna try too hard to win the series and sheit on their tail and probably end up with the lowest score of the 5 matches if they bat first.

Guyanese real beating up about Motie's continued omission from the WI team.

Hiding Bravo and Pollard way down the order is not helping either.

Drakes is really in for Smith so they can drop Drakes and play a spinner instead, most likely Walsh.

WI bowling wayward as usual, nothing new. England should be able to win this in about 16 or 17 overs.

I hope Rowley see what is possible when you have forward thinking leaders.

Long time I have not seen a WI crowd celebrate like this.
