Seems funny for Warrican to get a contract then not even make the squad.

 

[mr_mister]

Wonder if they'll actually play Cornwall. I see Brooks is a spinner too

West Indies selectors at work. Darren Bravo has an all format contract but was dropped from ODI's for the first squad they could pick.

Brooks is a part time leggie. He is a middle order batsman. I'm not sure why he is there tbh.

I'm guessing Joseph has done his back again?

So good seeing a squad with no Bishoo in it.

Hope better bloody do something for once.

Joseph did his shoulder during the IPL. Shame as he was on brilliant bowling form.

It's a pretty good squad I'd say. Batting do still very ordinary and undeveloped but we have a world class seam attack and are finally trying a spinner worthy of the name.

I think India will be too good but I will accept continued progress and some runs from Hope and Hety.

Shame for Joseph, bowled brilliantly against England earlier this year.

Can Rakheem bat?

 

[morgieb]

Can Rakheem bat?

Yes. Averages like mid-20's at FC level, which is very decent when you consider it's the West Indies.

Yes. Averages like mid-20's at FC level, which is very decent when you consider it's the West Indies.

He is a better list A batsman than FC, with 4 hundreds.

He is a hitter and obviously doesn't run quick singles or twos because he's too fat.

Congratulation Virat Kohli for breaking Javed Miandad's1,930 highest by any player record (64 innings) vs Westindies.Virat need only 34 innings (1975*)


india 95 for 2 off 19 overs vs Westindies in 2nd ODI
dhawan 2,Rohit 18, Virat (53* >> his 55th 50 in ODI) # 4 Pant on 15*

 

[mr_mister]

Gotta get Kohli

 

[vcs]

Scoring rate has come down a fair bit.

 

[slippy888]

Been dire batting overs 10 to 20

 

[Ulzan69]

Can Rakheem bat?

2224 runs & 260 wickets in 55 domestic
2017 in westindies >> Against touring indian team Cornwall took 5 fer including
virat/Pujara and Rahane.WICB offers him
special programme to loose his weight
he is currently 140 Kilos.he is ready to loose his weight.

 

[slippy888]

Why india batting so tentative against the spin again

 

[trundler]

Haha, Kohli is back to do some JAMODI bullying.
