*Official* - India in West Indies

[Cevno]

Which game?

 

[Bun]

Another couple of wickets and see what the Indians are made of.

no thanks, i'll take the test rankings and the world cup to judge what we are made of.


funny how people are dying to have a go at us here.. for me this B team has more than achieved what I expected they would. Had there been Zaheer and our top batsmen the series would have been sealed 3-0 in our favor.

Awta.

I hate soccer (well mainly the fans and the players) but gotta admit that game just now was at least as interesting as this Test match.

Women's football doesn't count

Well the rankning wasn't achieved with this team was it hence the point i was making.

In all honesty i just want a couple of hours of interesting cricket and the most likely way for that to happen is if West indies get some wickets.

TBH we could have won 3-0 in this series were it not due to rain....

Tbf, he meant a couple of wickets will show what this side is made of In pressure ,not the one having Zaheer and others.

4.025 RPO required if all 40 overs are bowled . Should really go for it for a while atleast.

Lay off the paranoia, Bun. No one's having a go. This is India's best team AFAIC, no point making excuses for missing players who played IPL.

As could England in the Sri Lanka series. In all honesty if the Windies do win it would be a travesty of justice given the way the series has been dominated by India.

 

[Rush]

TBH Arun Lal is speaking the truth, 4 rpo isn't exactly impossible. However, not liking his comments about Shiv...

WI have performed better than India in this match when you consider the circumstances they have had to deal with (losing the toss in overcast conditions, bad decisions, making do with 3 bowlers in their first innings).

that's precisely what I said,

this is a B team and hence doesn't reflect what the real indian test team would've done.

And in any case, they've done well so far in the series. Won the first, almost won the second (but due to wrteched rain), and now except for last 2 hours have had windies on the backfoot. all these playing away, and three of them making their test debut together.

if you wanted to judge, you already have had a one day series and 2 tests to draw ur conclusions from also, but seemingly you are oblivious to that and would want to do so only from the last session.

Edwards's first over was Steyn-like. Really getting the outswinger going when he pitches it up, which makes him a very dangerous bowler.

Maybe but they still deserve to lose the series. 1-1 would be very harsh on India.

Seems WI don't want to win anyway as Sammy is bowling.

only sachin is taking rest. rest all are having injuries, in any case, nobody is making excuses, cause I believe they have done pretty well so far. so no real need to have a go.
