Slightly disappointing scoreline this morning.

Really feel the Windies missed their chance in the last game. Don't see them getting 400+ in response, even if it's one of these 400 par decks.
The Windies are really good at batting collapses. Then again, if they get another wicket soon there's always a chance that more wickets will follow for a slightly cheaper cost

Seems like an understatement. Lately, it's been impossible for them to reach 300.

Other than his batting (obviously), the Windies miss Gayle as a part time option. Samuels is fairly ****

Another century! :thumbs_up

Been a good year, this 2011. Tbh, after the efforts in England this would seem like quite a friendly proposition.

Quite surprised to see Roach play this test. Too much brawn and not enough brain in his bowling, for my liking. Unless he sorts things out, he shouldn't be anywhere close to the test team, IMHO.
Not sure what poor Ravi Rampaul did to be dropped. He's been one of the best seam bowlers this year (esp. with the new ball) among guys who do not have an English passport.

Yeah, a surprise Rampaul was dropped. Again though it shows that Sammy as captain probably hurts them as despite him having a decent overall record he isn't that good if you take his freaky debut and the decent returns against Bangladesh out. They seem to hamper their side by not playing the 3 best pace men and Sammy isn't a good enough bat to be classed as an allrounder.

What a champ.

I started this post wondering if Dravid can get somewhere near the record for runs in a year, seeing as he's already pushing 1000 with eight innings left, including this one. Had forgotten how huge the record already is at 1788.

Rampaul has an illness, he wasn't dropped. Or at least that is what it said on the TV earlier.
