West Indies vs Pakistan in UAE 2016

lol

Man I'd love this to happen when there's a decent batting lineup who could chase this. With the knee jerk stupidity in cricket led by the Aussies there'd be a collective movement towards deciding that you should never ever ever rever ever not enforce the follow on or declare at less than 600.

West Indies are just going to West Indies aren't they?

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

When are we going to say game on

 

[Bijed]

It's unlikely. but I'd really love the West Indies to win this now, great fightback by them. Is this a record for biggest disparity in the first- and second- innings scores by a team (not sure of exactly how to look this up)? I gather Azhar Ali made the individual record earlier.

Also, Bishoo's BBI now better than Warne's!

Wait.. what just happened?

Bravo loves batting in the subcontinent and Samuels is back in the runs.. so still possible I guess.

WI are going to win this ---- gut feeling

 

[smash84]

What the **** just happened?

 

[smash84]

Pakistan 123 all out

 

[flibbertyjibber]

This would be the most amazing test win I can remember if Windies pull this one off.

 

[Agent Nationaux]

We should still win this but great stuff from Bishoo.

 

[ImpatientLime]

you're off your box if you think the west indies are winning this.

pakistan playing the long game and giving bishoo the rest of the series.

 

[Slifer]

West indies are going to lose, no doubt it in my mind. Good on them that they at least stretched it into the 5th day. If WI can at least draw one or two of these tests, it'll be a big step forward. Unfortunately, the WI aren't winning this. The WI batting is still frail and Pakistan have Yasir Shah.

 

[viriya]

Hope Bishoo builds on this and becomes a consistent wicket-taking threat. Anything to make WI more competitive.

 

[Black_Warrior]

Wow. First Tahir, then Rashid and now Bishoo. Pakistan's problems with leg spin continue. This just shows you can never take this format for granted, no matter what the teams are on paper.

 

[BeeGee]

I'd love to see a Bravo special here.

What batting line-ups in the world would you have as >40% chance of winning this if they were in the exact same position (i.e. their two openers out, and needing 251 runs to win vs. Pak).

 

[Burgey]

Australia, especially in the UAE.

Same conditions.
India
England





That being said, I actually think WI have a very good chance of winning this..but if they do it will be one of those outlier events.

 

[mr_mister]

250 runs with 8 wickets in hand isnt impossible

hope they get there
