2022 West Indies 4-Day Championship

Maybe an injury?

 

[GoodAreasShane]

What, an injury before even taking to the field of play?

Did happen to JP Duminy in Brisbane back in the day iirc

EDIT: now that I look Louis did indeed bowl, but only on the second day. This is certainly a puzzling one

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Is it possible he was in last day of covid quarantaine?

 

[GoodAreasShane]

That sounds... inherently plausible.

Had a brief look and wasn't able to find anything on the subject, but for lack of a better explanation I can definitely see that being the case

 

[Magrat Garlick]

He didn't have much success with the ball but you'd think Leeward Islands have a fairly limited player pool on account of representing about a few hundred thousand people

 

[cnerd123]

can anyone explain why cricinfo doesn't have live scoring of matches they could literally plonk someone in front of youtube to score

Should actually be the WICB that sorts this out. Cricinfo doesn't usually appoint people to live score games. They give access to their scoring software and set up the fixtures on the website, the local cricket board has to find someone who can use it to live score.

 

[Gnske]

I actually like the additional Dot Ball and Boundary percentages on the WICB scorecards

 

[Magrat Garlick]

That makes sense then, can see why WICB wanted to go for their own solution rather than having to double score it through CI's system as well

Keemo and Vishaul Singh have so far added 135 for the 6th wicket. Both of them have given a few chances…Windwards didn’t take them.

Now the score is getting close to 339 posted by the Windwards

We got Devon Smith out cheaply. Teddy Bishop stayed for a while but could only muster 15 in his debut FC innings. Getting rid of the skipper Hodge was more than welcomed.

Keemo Paul is playing at such a higher Level than his peers right now. Good to see!

is it just me or is play starting really early this time? tea at 3pm local?

The Guyana play started early this morning because overs were lost to rain yesterday.

They took tea at the right time and now the evening session has started at 3pm

 

[Magrat Garlick]

still 3-5pm for evening session feels early, 4-6pm more normal

that pitch in the Guyana game has cracked up a lot huh

 

[Magrat Garlick]

ye gods Cottoy

I believe they are gonna play until 5:30 today.

Yeah, the Queen’s Park Oval pitch looks dry, assisting the spinners a touch…but still a batting wicket.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Windwards are 5 down.

We are sneaking back our way into this game.

77/5…technically 89/5

 

[Magrat Garlick]

screen says lbw but like the stumps were shattered

i should know this but is it lbw if it touches the pads before going on to the stumps?

 

[WICFan]

Devon Thomas has tonned up for the Leewards against Barbados, Keacy Carty chipped in with a half-century as well.

Effectively 59/4 but Thomas and Hamilton at the wicket with Cornwall still to bat.

apparently this was a dumbass question and it is

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Athanaze is looking in prime form.
