***Official*** West Indies in New Zealand 2013/14

[Zinzan]

Yeah we've been crap since we ruled the world for 15 years!!..i'm sure only a rocket scientist would know that!! .

Quit acting like an old, ugly dried-up woman who constantly refers to the fact she was once a model in 1985. It's now 2013. Thanks in advance

Ummm I don't understand why everyone thinks that we should chastise West Indian fans for having anything more positive than a doomsday outlook?

Are they not allowed to hold hope or something?

 

[BeeGee]

This is Baz's best match from a captaincy perspective hands down. Good declaration and his backing of Sodhi in particular has been strong.

He's having a great game all round. 100 with the bat and he's been fielding better than I've seen him in ages. Really is a confidence player.

Must be getting plenty at home.

timmehhhhh

 

[hendrix]

Safe to say that this is the key partnership.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Wagner getting some reverse here

 

[wellAlbidarned]

and that's why we love wagner

 

[ohnoitsyou]

WAGner

 

[_Ed_]

Yes Wagner!

 

[Bahnz]

And you'd have to say that's that. Well done Wags. As badly as he bowled yesterday he did deserve at least one wicket.

 

[hendrix]

Wagner, you are forgiven.

 

[hendrix]

20 overs till the new ball. Since we can afford to, I'd just be rotating Sodhi, Anderson and Wagner so that Boult and Timmeh are perfectly fresh for the final push.

Now that Chanders is gone, Sodhi might not be a bad option. He troubled quite a few of the others. Wagner and Boult are good for another three overs each though.

 

[straw man]

Fantastic start to the morning. Great to see us doing the business here and I'm feeling fairly confident there'll be no Dunedin/Auckland-like England rearguard now that Chanderpaul is out.

Dem facials

 

[wellAlbidarned]

feels like wagner would really benefit by bowling a few deliveries going straight on outside off. He's a bit predictable atm

Yeah, it's a good point. I've honestly enjoyed Doull on commentary in this test. I don't agree with half of his opinions on team selection/balance etc, but his general observations during play are generally quite good, and he does a bit more research on opposition players than the others.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

gotta wonder how much sodhi would turn it if he fixed his front leg. There's pretty much no pivot at all, it just crumples.

 

[Prince EWS]

Deonarine playing for his place here really. Such an important innings.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

the **** is this from wagner.
