When conditions were tough at the Wanderers I didn't see much heart or passion by any of the England players except Collingwood. Haha the double agents walked out to the middle like they didn't care and played like they didn't care, especially old Trotty. Get used to old Trotty coming out to bat and not knoing what day it is. He regularly will do it for you lot. Thats why you saw Mickey laughing when he come out to bat in the 2nd innings.

Oh of course the KP I'm English with a put on English accent and the Lions tattoo but still wishes deep down he could wear the green and gold.
I don't think Briony supports England? So you can hold off firing all ye guns at the English :laugh:

Briony is an ill-informed troll/full-time fisher.
Hehe

Shame Brathwaite never played against Bangladesh last year. Looks such a talent.
The kid looks absolutely brilliant!!.. him and Barath are gonna be monsters opening for us :laugh: , man i'm loving this fight back from the Windies, they were something like 7 for 2 at one stage, it was a terrible start but Creary has come in and supported Brathwait really well, if these two are still in at 25 overs gone then they could potentially win this game for us, i hope our other young superstar in the making Jason Holder plays his part though, we'll need a few early wickets, especially that Babar Azam kid.

Yeah, you've finally got (along with gayle) a potentially worldclass test opener there imo.

Creary needs to get a move on, his strike rate is way too low.

You don't think Barath can be worldclass too? he's only two years older than Brathwaite and he already has a century to his name in Australia, we've got some serious talent coming through we really have, in fact i'm inclined to believe we've got the best bunch coming through out of all the nations today.

Roach
Darren Bravo
Barath
Brathwaite
Holder
Pollard

To name a few :) .

Stupid shot from Creary but i guess he wanted to get a move on, looking forward to seeing the wicket keeper/batsman Shane Dowich soon.

Windies have always had talent, its how they do on the big stage which really matters though. I'm very confident in regards to Brathwaite however. In regards to Barath, again he's class, I'd have him bat at no3 myself.

Alastair Campbell has to be the worst commentator out there. He seems to enjoy having a go at the youngsters without offering any real insight into their technique etc. Just generalised rubbish about West Indians not facing very much spin bowling (nothing could be further from the truth).

I hope he doesn't end up doing commentary on senior games any time soon...

Dowrich looks like a very talented wicket keeper/batsman, what a good knock from him, i think we can add another name to the list guys!! :D

All the comms seem to be doing is waxing lyrical over that spinner "Raza", hardly praised Brathwaite's knock at all 8-) ,

As for the game i think it's very close, over 200 would be decent and i guess we'll have to rely on Holder to work his magic, Pakistan's batters looked a little nervous against India so if our bowlers really put pressure on them anything can happen.

AND DOWRICH HITS A 6 TO GET HIS 50!!!. WELL DONE SON.

Holder is not exceptionally quick (average 80mph) but he gets alarming bounce. Unsurprisingly the Pak batsman don't fancy coming forward to him.
