*Official* India in West indies 2023

[loterry1994]

Just goes to show India still need a few those more experienced guys like Kohli, Sharma, Jadeja etc in the short form sides while they transition to a younger and less experienced team in the future. Don’t think they would let the batting collapse as much if they were there the last few matches

windies are always tough opponents in t20s regardless of their strength in other formats

i am okay with us losing. we have a year until the t20 world cup and should prepare the younger players before then.

Delighted for WI. Still some fight in the lion yet. #RallyRound

 

[number11]

So we are losing this from a winning position.

I was a little nervous. WI have always had a special place in my heart.

Yes, that collapse in the middle order was unwarranted. We don't need that. Pooran showed his class.

These umpires are giving everything.

Very trigger happy.

The level of umpiring is so poor in World Cricket at the mo, these were dreadful decisions. I mean he did manage to get one right in that it was just about clipping a bit of leg stump (I'm sure I saw Pooran having a word about it), but how you could give that out was beyond me. They certainly couldn't be accused of being homers.

To be fair, if we did pick 2 more teams and held a triseries between them, we would obviously win 100%.

They are not serious umpires.

Just look at the average average of our domestic batsmen: ~25.00

Pooran got fined 15% of his match fee for his criticism of the umpires.

Hardik wants India to follow the American model. Play mostly among your own teams and then declare yourself world champions lol.

 

[ataraxia]

They probably would have a greater chance of winning with three teams tbh

davo: "As a local, i can assure you there won't be any rain today...in Guyana we go with the opposite of the weather forecasts because it can rain outside the stadium and sun shining inside....."

Lol, yes...everytime there is cricket in Guyana it appears to be raining. Full on Lagaan.
