*Official* West Indies in India

[nsniks]

1 up in a home series against wi. Laxman at 170ish, batting at a brisk pace, we are overwhelmingly ahead and have all the time in the world, why not let the man get his 200?

One of the reasons was that light was fading away quickly so Dhoni wanted WI to play some overs before the lights deteriorate more thats why he started with spinner

Why do the commentators keep saying it’s a difficult pitch to bat on? India scored 600 and Dhoni scored a hundred, it’s a bloody road. Been watching all morning and there is no movement for the quicks and while there is turn, it’s slow.

 

[TT Boy]

That didn't look pretty. Bravo bowled playing away from body.

Actually, don't think the turn is slow and that it is a road. But certainly not a difficult wicket too bat on, either.

And there goes another......

man india are going to murder us. sachin will get his 100th, 101st, 102nd 103rd and probably more if india ever bat more than once for some reason

Windies biggest defeat to India - 4th Test: India v West Indies at Chennai, Jan 11-15, 1988 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo

That should go here.

 

[Cevno]

Wowzers!!

Good to see a Indian fast bowler doing that. Yadav surprising me here.

 

[Contra]

99-6

Dang.. and I was hoping to get some proper sleep today with WI batting.

 

[TT Boy]

Samuels pwned there. Great spell from Yadev.

 

[Contra]

Amazing delivery this one, the one that got Bravo was nothing special but this one swung in and straighten after pitching. Yadav's got a nice yorker too. Good to see a fast bowler slip one in every now an then.

At the end of the game, I might need to modify my sig here...

 

[Contra]

Ishant / Zak / Praveen / Yadav as our Pace attack then for Australia?

 

[Contra]

Gone! Extra bounce I think

 

[Cevno]

Ishant / Zak / Praveen / Yadav as our Pace attack then for Australia?

Yeah, think we'll take Aaron too probably and maybe one more if we take a big squad with Zak's and Ishant's problems.

 

[Contra]

Roach has ridiculously bad luck

 

[Cevno]

Roach has ridiculously bad luck

True.

 

[Contra]

My goodness... so are they gonna in force the follow on or no?

 

[Cevno]

The match would be over today at this rate.

 

[Cevno]

My goodness... so are they gonna in force the follow on or no?

Surely would?

Have bowled just 26 odd overs today and 500 runs ahead.

 

[Contra]

I say give Viru and GG a full on licence to go all guns blazing for about 30 overs and then declare.
