**Official** West Indies in England 2012

[MW1304]

Building up some steam is Broady.

Reckon this innings is going to predictions so far, Chanders running out of partners.

187 - 6 - boooooooooom

So if this is well-below-par Broad...

If he was bowling like he did against the Indians last year he'd have 10.

 

[Spark]

To be fair these last two overs have been much more like the Broad of late last year. Real zip and movement. Bounce, too.

 

[TT Boy]

Innings defeat here unless Sammy comes off. So predictable from the Windies, everyone knew Samuels and Ramdin are complete hacks. Where's Windies Weather, wasn't he bigging up this shower of a batting line-up?

 

[MW1304]

One innings man.

Yes when I first switched on his pace was all over the place, dropping well down into the 70's on a few occasions but you can see when it all clicks it's mid 80's, lovely length with a bit of out-swing.

 

[TT Boy]

Over in India, Chris Gayle is 120 N/O.

 

[TT Boy]

Airy fairy.

 

[TT Boy]

It's Powell Bumble not Pollard.

 

[Spikey]

i think that was a reference to the scorecard gaff...

You're aware that this is the first innings, right? I think you might have dreamed an innings whjere we already got 500.

I'm aware that the wicket is good and the Windies attack contrary to what Sky think isn't good. One guy is on debut while Edwards averages over 40 against England.

Nah he just knows, like me, that we will score 500

 

[Jacknife]

Can't believe they didn't review it tbh.

 

[MW1304]

Urgh they had him. They goddarn had him...

Not the first time they haven't reviewed when they shoulda either.

 

[TT Boy]

That's more like it Sammy.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Would have thought you'd be looking for a review when you've a team like West Indies 6 down, you've two left and it's Chanderpaul. With a spinner you've more chance of an overturn because the height is less likely to be marginal.

 

[Jacknife]

It's ridiculous they didn't have look with both intact and 6 down, especially with it being Chanderpaul.

 

[Jono]

Interesting comments from Holding regarding where he rates Chanderpaul against the other WI great batsmen. Nothing controversial or anything like that, and I gather most of us would agree with his comments, but nevertheless always intriguing to hear.
