Thats possible bcoz, Strauss played a little cameo in the last match..They might have took in that in to consideration.

Yep! Lara should aim for ODI 400 this time, if not WI total should cross 400 :mad:
Bell has potential, Strauss is woeful.

Agreed with Gelman's sentiments, Lara better get a decent opportunity. I know people can criticise him for not being a team player, but the way he is dedicated to West Indies cricket is admirable.

Panesar is not playing.. That makes easier for WI to master the ENG attack in the middle part of innings

Err what? Panesar was just milked with total ease by every top 8 side England have come up against, complete with no wicket-taking threat whatsoever.

Hmm, england seem to have picked a 12 year old, asnd he's bowling like one.

Jolly sporting of us though, to pick such a terrible bowling attack for BCR Lara final game:)

Good to see Gayle firing again, his average was up around 40 at the Champions Trophy and it's fallen way back to 37 as a result of his incredibly poor form. Devon Smith doing his best to see the West Indies don't get off to a real flyer.

Been begging Gayle to do this every Windies match I've watched so far, finally doing it and I'm loving every second of it. :D

Hahaha, I'm loving this. :D

I really don't care, I just want the WI to play as they should and haven't.

Wouldn't mind seeing Devon Smith picking up his own strike rate, Gayle dimantled Plunkett though which was good to see. Interesting to see if Gayle can slap Flintoff around here.

Freddie showing there's summat in the pitch, if you can bowl remotely decently.

But Dalrymples on, so Gayle gets his 50.

Bell, Colly and Vaughn will all be on before the twentieth over at this rate:laugh:

Well played Chris though, its been good, but the bowling's been shocking.

I too agree with you.

Bell has got potential than Strauss. agree. But the England captain didnt know that and choose Strauss ahead considering on current one match form

That was because, I think Panesar can create problems for WI with his line.

Panesar has got a good WC so far.. He took 7 wickets from hi 8 matches... He has been bowling well , if you saw the previous matches..

England may be searching for bowling options, but I doubt they'd give the 12th man a trundle, tbh.

He has bowled "well" against the minnow teams, quite franky he doesn't have the variation to cut it against good ODI teams yet. To say he has had a good World Cup is pretty silly.
