***Official*** West Indies in Australia 2015/16

[ajdude]

is Carlos Brathwaite the new Darren Sammy? I miss that man

 

[adub]

Trying to find the footage of Bill getting sconed by Charlie Griffiths in the mod-1960s then batting on to make a massive ton. Shame he became so defensive later in his career, he's always overlooked when discussing Australia's best openers, but he was an absolute gun.

for sure, quality bat, but also the most partisan Victorian ever.

 

[African Monkey]

Carlos Brathwaite looks a handy bat (as have many other WI players looked over the years). Hope to see Bravo continue to bat like Chanderpaul and not throw his wicket away batting with such a bad batting lineup.

 

[Burgey]

I know they're outgunned completely, but some of these West Indies batsmen need to look to score a lot more than they do. Chasing 500 plus every dog is bloody awful, but there needs to be some effort at making the opposition try something different. If your defensive technique is as poor as a lot of these blokes, they're better off moving it along rather than waiting to get castled anyway

[Gnske]

Another classic Victorian effort.

shut up brayshaw it's a no ball you arsehole

dushmantha chameera could bat #4 for this lot

for sure, quality bat, but also the most partisan Victorian ever.

not something Sydney posters suffer from at all.

tbf it was pretty much the exact same as the 2nd innings David Warner dismissal at Adelaide. Both could have gone either way, and both should probably have no-balls IMO.

 

[Tangles]

I would love for someone to put up some fight and a decent score here.

 

[TheJediBrah]

slats is a ****ing moron

"shouldn't be no ball because a mm wouldn't have made a difference to the ball"

then goes on to talk about "staying with onfield decision"

 

[mr_mister]

hope these two score fifties. enjoyable fightback

 

[Gnske]

The boot never lifted you dumb ****s

 

[Tangles]

Loved Slats the player but his commentary just constantly lowers my opinion of him. Heals is worse. I had him in my favorite Aussie team over Gilly but I'm pretty close to switching that based on Healys mouth.

 

[Skyliner]

Darren Bravo 15 off 100 balls.

True, we're far more susceptible to false modesty.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Well, I was about to tell everyone how we now had three of the ten slowest top-order knocks of the past 25 years within the last month, and then Bravo actually played a shot.

Oh well, enjoy this statoid anyway.

kinda weird all of those scores were under 50

 

[mr_mister]

hope Braithwaite gets a fifty here, will be a nice moment.

Is he related to Kraigg at all?

 

[morgieb]

Nice knock from Brathwaite.

Why is Bravo going so slowly? He's not trying to save a game, this is pathetic.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

If my team were a bunch of scrubs I'd play for the not out too.
