*Official* Match 42 - India v West Indies

[qarishahg]

Hi,

Another day and another match where the chasing side stood at a comfortable position to win and then just toppled. how many times have we seen this happen in this tournament already.

India again off to a great start, looking comfortably to get 310-320 at one stage and toppled. Something is going wrong in the middle order.

But Ross Taylor did it. It wasn't a special innings, anybody can hit like that.

Didn't you know?

Taylor played a great innings (I'm not going to take that away from him) but he was served pies by Akhtar and Razzaq.

Hopefuly not this time. I hope they put him in the team for the Q final. Wahab is far too expensive for my liking. Even though shoaib can be just as bad atleast he can take wickets from the start.

. They are at home in a world cup for christs sake, at least look like you are enjoying it.

lol.............yeah.......I have felt the Indian team to be going through the motions a lot of times and doesn't seem to have the intensity that they should...........mind you it might be due to the low intensity bowling line up

Shambolic end for West Indies. Sums up their tournament really, impressed with the ball but not with bat. They need the big guns to fire against Pakistan or they will be on early flight home.

India, still don't know what to make of them, they looked so flat until WI threw match away and a good side would take advantage. They are at home in a world cup for christs sake, at least look like you are enjoying it.

india won by 80 runs on a good wicket defending an average score. majority would be satisfied with that.

Windies had the game in the bag at the halfway stage of their innings but once again blew it. They just don’t know how to beat a top side, they have no batting from four down and the million $ man Pollard is worth about 2 bob in Windies colours. What's Chanderpaul done to get overlooked for the likes of Kirk Edwards? While poor old Devon Thomas seems to be batting four places too high.

Thomas is seriously good behind the sticks but a serious liability infront of them. Him batting at 6 is destined to fail
