3rd ODI, Tarouba, August 01, 2023, India tour of West Indies

[tweaker]

India and West Indies clash in the 3rd ODI of the series on Tuesday, August 1st in Queen's Park Oval, Trinidad to decide the outcome of the series. The series that everyone looked at as a cakewalk for the Indian Team has taken a massive turn in the 2nd ODI and now hangs in the middle with both sides gunning for it.

 

India was blown out of the game by a West Indies team who won their first game against India in their last 10 matches. This will boost the confidence of the hosts as they have struggled for wins at the highest level and they will be looking to ride the momentum and clinch the series.

 

 

India vs West Indies Squads:

 

India: Rohit Sharma(c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Ishan Kishan(w), Hardik Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Umran Malik, Mukesh Kumar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Jaydev Unadkat, Sanju Samson, Axar Patel, Ruturaj Gaikwad

 

West Indies: Brandon King, Kyle Mayers, Alick Athanaze, Shai Hope(w/c), Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Romario Shepherd, Dominic Drakes, Yannic Cariah, Gudakesh Motie, Jayden Seales, Keacy Carty, Alzarri Joseph, Oshane Thomas, Kevin Sinclai

[Tarak9]

Test matches over we do not need test team with ODI thread

 

Stats :

 

 

Hope is 65 away from 5000 ODI runs. If he gets there on Tuesday, in his 113th innings, he will be the third fastest to the mark behind Babar Azam and Hashim Amla.

 

If Kohli plays and scores 102, he will become the fifth batter to reach the 13,000 mark in ODIs.

 

Ravindra Jadeja needs six wickets to become the seventh Indian to 200 ODI wickets, and the first Indian since Kapil Dev (3783 runs and 253 wickets) to complete the double of 2000 runs and 200 wickets.

 

Kyle Mayers is only the third West Indies player to open both batting and bowling in the same ODI. Phil Simmons and Chris Gayle are the other two.

Tortoise is captaining us today as well

Umran dropped Undercutter playing.  Safe to say its over for Umran now. 

Mookesh & Undercutter would rule together as predicted

[rageaddict]

Unadkat strikes back .

[putrevus]

I don't see the reason why Umran had to be dropped?

[Austin 3:!6]

Unadkat, Avesh and Mukesh - they surely have some leaked vidoes of selectors or Dravid loves them.

 

Even BD has better seamers

Ruturaj playing today

Windies won the toss and choose to bowl

Dravid has screwed up the fast bowlers completely .

[Lone Wolf]

If Ruturaj does well it won't matter as he would be leading the side in China during Asian games. 

Dravid has lost it...  I hope Gaikwad does well though to mess with these f***s

I would gladly take Taskin over these mfs

Kishan dropped already. Better teams won't drop

Australia dropped 6 catches in England first innings in the last ashes test. Stokes dropped too if I remember so anyone can drop catches.

Where is the new age batting?

So that is our hope. Play kishan hoping better teams having a bad day in the office. WI failed to qualify because of plethora of dropped catches against Associate sides. So we can't compare anamolies from top side with a regular occurrence from a bottom ranked side.

One thing admirable about Kishan is...  He doesn't misses his chances that much.   Look at Sanju..  He would throw it away rn.  Kishan's career suggests he manages to score runs even when looking ugly. 

So many technical faults but he tries to maximize his returns somehow. 

He needs to improve his front foot game to be better prepared against good sides nevertheless.

At the toss - India haven't lost a bilateral ODI series in more than a decade Vs WI. You don't want to be the captain to break the trend?

They also need to get singles going too many dot balls.
