windies draw first blood

[X_Factor]

its also on the cricket 10 channel 303 on cable

i thought we should have tried a 5-8 over burst of pace before lunch, those guys clearly contented to defend their wicket even if it means 2 runs from 20 balls

[racedriverpro]

After lunch when when they relaxed they will get some pace. Ramdin Hadda be careful with the workload he put on the pacers.

[X_Factor]

u all see how the NZ batsmen has the mental strength to tough it out, and now score faster
from batting 1.5 runs per over to now 2.5

[shake d livin wake d dead]

looking to be a 400 plus first innings total

[racedriverpro]

Yea..professional display. On another note, the bowling attack seems docile arguably mainly due to the pitch.

[speedmelter]

lol at this noob west indies side... the genius administration and selectors are going to suffer so badly for many yrs to come.

[racedriverpro]

^^ suffer u say? Cash flow normal. Sports is all about [BANKNOTE WITH DOLLAR SIGN].

[speedmelter]

all of our test cricket talent is killed off. we will survive a bit and be competitive in just the T20s

[X_Factor]

I think we all know few caribbean batsmen has the mental strength to survive in a test match
i really do commend the NZ batsmen today...scoring slow as hell but they didnt get frustrated and go for big shots
they stuck it out and really valued their wicket
Kane faced 263 balls for his hundred and the other guy faced excess of 200 balls as well
and now that they are in a good position, they could turn up the tempo tmr

i hope WI batsmen took note for their turn at the crease

[racedriverpro]

^^ Boi we will have to wait and see. I just happy taylor back. He is the best west Indian fast bowler of the current generation.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

500+ and declare?

[racedriverpro]

I think J. Taylor gonna come back stronger this morning after overnight thought of yesterday's play. NZ might make around 390.

^^ Boi we will have to wait and see. I just happy taylor back. He is the best west Indian fast bowler of the current generation.

Yes it was really good to see him back in the WI squad, been waiting years for it... However WI r not in a good position right now

[racedriverpro]

^^ yea Shillingford to predictable more so without his doosra. Normally if our bowlers do good, the opposition usually does better.

[trent]

WI missing Narine...18 of his 21 Test wickets have come against NZ, in only 3 test matches.

[racedriverpro]

^^ true, but he made his choice. The board won't be respected if they don't uphold their policy. I agree with the board.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

nothing on tv so far

[racedriverpro]

Big Benn wukin.

[<=xjemler=>]

NZ 285/5

[shake d livin wake d dead]

windies toiling,that friggin wicket is sheit to bowl on,I hope windies batsmen actually stand up and make some runs.

[cornfused]

Placid wicket , ineffective bowling . Hope we apply ourselves when its our turn to bat . Unless of course someone changes the wicket at that time.

[racedriverpro]

Good total from NZ.
