Another Chandrika special today. Bowled through the gate by Keon Joseph, Guyana's opening pacer.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

I like what the commentators are saying in the Guyana-Leewards game.

Spending time at the crease. Chanderpaul coming up in the conversation

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Romario Shepard with 3 of the 5 wickets to fall so far. Leewards batsmen are struggling against the pace.

Permaul and Joseph with the other 2 wickets

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Devon Thomas looks comfortable. Peters needs to stay and bat with him.

How did Romario bowl? I quite like him, he moves the new ball nicely.

 

[Beamer]

In all 3 matches the team batting first was bowled out well inside the first day.

I caught the first session of the Barbados v Jamaica match and I have to say the pitch was poor. Very inconsistent bounce, lots of movement for the seamers, spin for Nikita Miller on the first day.

Having said that, John Campbell us currently dispatching the ball to all parts for 46 not out. He's bound to get himself out any moment now....

I tuned in after lunch. Leewards were already 5 down by then. So I didn't see any of Shepard's wickets.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

So Gudakesh Motie-Kanhai with 3 wickets, and Shepherd with 3.

Motie is actually the best young spinner in the region.

Let's see what Rahkeem has in him.

Guyana 36-2

Tagenarine batting with nightwatchman Clinton Pestano. Kinda like the second innings of the previous game.

I'm excited about play tomorrow. Great challenges ahead.

Excited to see what Rakheem comes up with. He has one wicket already. I also like Motie and am delighted he is getting preference over Permaul now so we can really see what he is made of.

 

[Beamer]

Good century from Jeremy Solozano, T & T's opener. Keeping liking on runs openers, we need you!

 

[Flem274*]

blackwood turning out so crap (for now) really surprised me. his batting was both talented and sensible on test debut

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Unfortunately it looks like normal service has been resumed, fairly unremarkable spinners running through sides. As depressing as it is predictable

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Imran Khan > Bishoo

Saw that yesterday in the comments of the youtube stream.

From what I've seen, Khan has more variety than Bishoo and is more accurate, but he doesn't turn his leg break much.

I don't think he's international quality but can see why he gets FC wickets.

Yep. Warrican 8 wickets, Miller 7 in the match so far, khan 8, shillingford 6.

It's depressing. Still we have seen some flashes of quality pace bowling from Harding and Joseph. Let's hope we see more of that.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Jeremiah Louis is swinging the new ball. Causing problems for the lower order batsmen: Permaul and Shepherd. Both can bat.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

It's the second new ball.

Rahkeem operating on the other end. Figures of 3 for 46 in his 23rd

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

It's seems like Chandrika have injured his finger attempting to field a ball at midwicket.

He's off the field, for now.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

He's gone with the ambulance now for x-rays.

He's done for the match, I presume.

Meanwhile Rahkeem Cornwall have picked up his 4th wicket of the innings.
