Narine looks to me to be a very good bowler. Really weird that his test record is so poor.

 

[Bahnz]

Haha! Great work Ramdumb!

 

[Bahnz]

Great pitch this actually. Has really rewarded some good accurate bowling from WI.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Jimmy doing his best to tell CW he's not ready for test cricket

He's only played six tests!!..look at Warne's record after six tests and it was shocking..our selectors are so bloody stupid that instead of giving sunil time to adapt they pushed him out and went back to Shilly even though everyone knew he had action problems!!..it's pathetic but no doubt Narine is the main man now and i believe he can be the next Ajmal!!.only a lot younger.

 

[Bahnz]

Yeah, gets some real bite with his standard off break, which is way more important than any carrom ball gimmickry. With a decent run in the side he should go well.

 

[Bahnz]

C'mon JimmyGS! Do it for CW!

 

[Bahnz]

Oh and by "it" I meant: hang around for a while and piss a few people off without doing anything remotely productive before buggering off. Good onya lad, you've done your CW posting heritage proud.

I think this goes to show that McCullum is one of our top 3 LO players

 

[Bahnz]

Seriously, this has been just a ghastly batting effort. Ryder, Anderson, Ronchi and Neesham all dismissed to aerial shots to nothing deliveries. Throw in the run out of Taylor and you have a symphony of **** that rivals anything we've managed in the last year.

Also have to say that if I was a WI fan, and I was forced to include a bits n' pieces player not really good enough to be either a batsman or a bowler to captain my test side, I would much prefer Bravo to Sammy. At least he can touch 130kmh every now and then.

 

[Bahnz]

Nah **** off Rigor. All the best ODI's in recent years have been low scoring thrillers rather than 700 run boundary fests.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

Double after 30 overs with wickets in hand. Hmmm

 

[Prensel]

Mccullum is lucky he got dropped by Sammy

 

[hendrix]

how the **** can you give that LBW?

 

[Bahnz]

Rigor: "McCullum's innings was a little risque"

Yeah, that bit where he started swinging around on a wrecking ball with no clothes on was not only strange tactics but also pretty controversial for daytime tv.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Seriously, how do you give that out when the batsman is that far down?

I don't care if that's umpire's call. That's poor umpiring, imo.

 

[Bahnz]

Haha, Gary Baxter. He's always had a habit of doing that, and to be fair to him, Hawkeye did say it was out.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Lol. Ridic

 

[Bahnz]

Seriously, how do you give that out when the batsman is that far down?

I don't care if that's umpire's call. That's poor umpiring, imo.

Nah, McCullum shouldn't get out of jail just because he bolted down the wicket. Fair call imo.

It's Gary Baxter isn't int? He hasn't been even domestic quality for a long time.
One suspects that he gave that out because he knew that WI didn't have any reviews left. It was a very weird call.

It's not actually incorrect though, is it? Just a very strange appeal to give.
