***Official*** West Indies in Australia 2015/16

[Gob]

see a change in Smith's shuffle

 

[Kylez]

Anybody else see a bit of Chris Martin in Carlos Brathwaite's bowling action?

 

[ajdude]

can we read much into Khawaja's 6 fours and 1 six? I mean on paper it looks like he's knocking it around well without the boundaries but I'd assume a lot of those would've made it to the fence if the outfield was quicker

Yeah nah he's a square of the wicket player and the square boundaries are huge and very, very slow due to the rain.

 

[Burgey]

So good to hear Bill back on tv

 

[Pratters]

Taylor has lost a lot of pace. Any one knows why?

 

[Gnske]

So how good were Uzzie and Burns? Glad I missed the ignominy of the Windies.

 

[Gnske]

So glad they hung on to Burns though, no way he deserved to be dropped for Darsh's once in a blue moon score.

Nah **** it the Marsh hate is starting to reach an annoying level

I'm not a fan buy any means but he has been scoring runs in long form cricket and without him NZ series would have been 1-1. I won't hold that solitary test in much against him either.

It's not hate, it's just that everyone acknowledges how frustratingly inconsistent he is.

 

[Red]

How much energy does Smith's fidgeting use over the course of a day? Unnecessary expenditure IMO.

 

[Furball]

He's an unfit ****.

 

[James90]

Australia still $1.23 on Betfair to win the series 3-0.

Lock it in, Eddie.

 

[Slifer]

Can someone please tell me why the WI continue to essentially pick 5 'batsmen' and 5 'bowlers'? 5 have proven over and over again to not be capable of taking 20 Wickets. Also ramdhin sux and is not good enough at 6. I seriously think either the coaches and selectors are the biggest idiots ever or they want the wi to get humiliated over and over again!!!!

Lazy ****

 

[Tangles]

Looks really hilarious with the capital W.

Lol. Not intended.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Don't see any real point in the commentators harping on about the WI and their struggles on the field. Until the game's controlling body becomes less self-serving, and the three nations actually benefitting from international cricket spread the goodwill, it's a waste of time lamenting the WI inability to compete.

Maybe allowing each cricketing country to take control of the ICC for a couple of years at a time would help...at least that way they could pump funds into the their own coffers for a short period to help an even development of the game.

One post since play began today.

Wish the Big Bash was on right now tbh.

 

[Tangles]

How long before the comms start on about a declaration? Assuming they haven started.

Not sure if on Aussie telly, but looks like a good ladies big bash game on in an hour and 45 minutes, that will be more interesting than this "test".

 

[Slifer]

No Oz, don't declare pile on the runs....
