*Official* - India in West Indies

Austerlitz

U19 Debutant
Trademark punk antics by kohli at the end.Dravid looked really good save the drop.Sammy probably dropped the match,and the reaction of the wi coach said it all.
Mukund was mega flop another sadagopan ramesh.:dry:
And kohli doesn't look too convincing either.Only dravid...again.

How did Praveen Kumar go? Like him as a bowler but not seen him in longer formats.
Swung it a mile but needs to bowl at least 10 Kmphr quicker to be effective against better batsman.

Btw he got suspended from bowling half way through the 1st innings as he stepped on the danger area repeatedly.

God West Indies batting is pathetic. Barath looked awesome while watching Junior Bravo against the moving ball was like a slow execution

Bowled beautifully, put the doubters at rest by moving a 40-over ball both ways and getting the 3rd, 4th and 5th wickets. He really would've troubled the tail with the movement IMO, a 5fa was almost guaranteed but he was banned for the innings for stepping on the pitch :(

I'd say he was stellar given it was his first match. I still believe he's a better long-term bowling prospect than Sree or Ishant. Hoping he tears up **** in the second Innings. Ended up with 3-38 in the first Innings ftr.

he wont trouble any world class batsman if he bowls at 75 mph/120 kmph.

whats not true?
speed or the troubling bit

120 is piss easy to play, good batsman can play it off the pitch.

Plus, he doesn't really swing the ball late.
If you can just always play 120 off the pitch, spinners wouldn't get any wickets. Zaheer rarely gets above 125-128 these days for example.
