Bravo has flashes of brilliance through the covers that show his potential. I do think he needs to grow some cricketing brains though - And learn to catch - But he's a great prospect IMO

One of the main problems with Sammy is his incredibly **** batting and a tendency to flatter his bowling record by running through the tail.

a very important attribute especially in this era when the tailenders are no longer rabbits.

Yeah I agree. However, I'd never back Sammy to run through the top 6 often and that's why I'd be looking towards another bowler or an allrounder like Russell instead.

India have no chance of winning at all IMO.

Whatever it takes!!!
Windies game to lose..

First of all, it's always nice to have a bowler who can do so.
Second: when did he do that, apart from yesterday?
Anyway, let's not forget that Sammy has a few decent scalps:
Cook, Vaughan, Collingwood, Bell, Prior, Amla, Haddin, MHussey, Watson, Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene & Laxman.......

I'm not trawling through scorecards - It's just a general feeling that he's quite good against the lower middle order and tail enders but much weaker against the top order.
Speaking of which, It's a shame Ravi wasn't rewarded for some very good bowling yesterday

Why anti-jinxing is great:
A) it works. See India vs Australia Mohali 2010
B) it annoys Got Spin, whose sole purpose on the forum is to annoy Indian fans anyway.
This is a proven success. And I encourage my fellow Indian fans to continue this anti-jinxing for the rest of this match.

I'm an amateur compared to Silentstriker, who has been doing it for years and years..Mind you, have no idea why Jono needs help with anti-jinxing, he should be more than capable of doing it himself

Wait...what the hell? Praveen Kumar trying to fool the umpires and get away with running on the pitch.
Looks much better now TBH.

You probably shouldn't hold yourself to that standard. Compared to me, you're an amateur at pretty much everything.

Lil' Bravo and Chanders looking good. From an Indian POV, it's important to get Shiv before he gets set to bat for the day. That means, right now!

Everyone below Nash is useless against the spinning ball. These guys just need to get a couple of wickets and I'd expect this test to finish just after lunch.
