Johnson Charles gets a pass as the guy averages 19 and 21 in FC and List A cricket respectively so obviously can't bat but what was Marlon Samuels up to? 41 ball 11.

239 is par on this pitch normally, not sure if it was ****e bowling or awesome hitting or a bit of both, at the half way stage it looked like 250 would be a competitive total.

The bloke has struggled to hit the ball off the block recently. Boundary or zip. A liability at three.

Enjoyable last few overs, those. Mind you that pitch looks a belter.

Can't help but think we're seeing a tired and mentally fatigued team playing a fresher more switched on outfit.

Dont really understand Oz's team

Huge tail to the batting and only bowler who is within light years of test team goes for 4 per over

Glad I'm not a selector

A bit of both for me. That pitch looks better than a 239 one though. Thought the WI needed at least 265 or so. 294 will take some getting, mind.

No excuse

WI are very poor and wouldnt beat a state team generally
Yeah righto, so why are they performing so well against Australia, the #1 team in the world?? Black magic?

Australia have had a massive summer. I have no sympathy for them because they're professionals and they get paid to do this, but it's definitely a reason why they look sluggish.

If the state side was touring WI no way, conditions are quite different and you need time to adjust. Apart from NSW they'd get whitewashed probably.
NSW?

:laugh:

Oz have taken this tour lightly and are paying the penalty

WI are poor but anyone that turns up without any warmups and expects to acquit themselves well is kidding themselves

I know exactly how it works and that is why I"m saying that Oz are not CURRENTLY the best team in the world irrespective of our ranking
