***Official** Malaysia Tri-Series

[AussieDominance]

Yeah yeah, and Bangladesh bowled India out for just over 200 to win a year earlier. The Aussie defeat was due entirely to the fact that Australia assumed it would be much simpler to bowl Bangladesh out, not accounting for Ashraful's miracle innings. Australia also forgot that they didn't have their main strike bowler and probably the best in the world, Brett Lee, in the attack. There will be no underestimation against two quality international sides, India and West Indies, and there will be a full compliment of bowlers and batsmen (minus Gilly) this time.

Yes, West Indies have a chance, but I still rate India much better, and Australia much better still. Perhaps Australia will be given a run for their money, but their money will stay in their pockets.

Are you going to any matches Clown?

 

[TT Boy]

I got tickets to the matches on the 16th and 18th - Australia vs. India and Australia vs. West Indies.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Thank you, sir. I've found myself a bit busy lately (partially because I got smashed by a truck and had open-heart surgery and was actually dead at one point), but now I should be able to post some.

What was the truck carrying?

I wouldn`t discount the West Indies. Do we know thier squad? I really rate their bowling unit, just starting to find their feet. And they have some classy batsmen.

Bit batsman-heavy, so I suppose they're going to repeat the success with Gayle/Samuels taking 10 overs each.

No Dave...

[ClownSymonds]

Thanks, grecian.

AussieDominance - Yes, as TT Boy quoted, I am attending the matches on the 16th and 18th. Already got the tickets and booked transportation and hotel.

FaaipDeOiad - I don't think the truck was carrying anything, but I saw it only for an instant before it hit my vehicle head-on.

Doesn't look like this series is on Foxtel, sadly.

No Dave...

Ah. No chance then for the Windies.

 

[aussie]

Ah. No chance then for the Windies.

not really, based on what i saw of him on tv vs India this year if he was picked & played they Indian & Australian batsmen could really destroy him.

No one can destroy tadpole.

Pretty sure it is.

 

[Nate]

Thanks Vines. Very strong-looking Windies team for mine. Will be a handful bowling-wise.

 

[honestbharani]

I still think Gayle and Samuels will be the key in this series to how well the Windies do.

 

[Nate]

How so? I`m pretty sure Malaysia is pace-friendly.

 

[honestbharani]

IT is not so much about the wicket. I am expecting reasonably batter friendly wickets and the 20 overs in the middle by these two could be very important. Plus, the wickets in non-test nations and new grounds tend to be on the slower side generally. Maybe it will have decent pace in the first couple of games, but after that they just die out into slow pitches. And that's where Gayle and Samuels are in their elements.

Atn cbn

 

[AussieDominance]

are you serious what does that mean isnt it on foxtel?

 

[Tim]

The West Indies will need serious improvement if they want to compete in this series..this is pretty much the same side that lost 5-0 to NZ earlier this year.

 

[honestbharani]

and beat India 4-1
