Cricketics Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I hope WI pull out a miracle for the good of cricket. i seriously bloody hope the same thing happens.. :hysterical: 1-1 come on the windies...hope chanderpaul stands and is given support from the remaining batsmans.. Link to comment
Donny Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Ramdin gone to the Monster. Time for all of DJ Sammy's dreams to come true. :wink_smile: Link to comment
Dirty_South Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Sammy gone for 25 ...was not comfortable with Panesar..... gr8 catch by Monty. Link to comment
King Tendulkar Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 107 needed, miracle needed. Time for chanders to open up? Link to comment
King Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 Monty's bowling well and the pitch is helping quite a bit. Aleem Dar also had to signal one bouncer off Monty's over. India will be pretty blessed if they get this sort of wicket and Anil is bowling on the last day. It is turning, bouncing, keeping low, pretty much doing every thing. Harmison wasted plenty of overs bowling all over the place as ever. Now Sidebottom is making the batsman to play at least. Link to comment
Donny Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Sidebottom has impressed. I think most teams need this variation - the Akram, Vaas, Zaheer, Bracken, Franklin types. Under 100 to win now. Chanders up to 97* Taylor 2* Link to comment
King Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 Chanderpaul brings up a fighting 100 and looking lot more positive now. The game is getting closer and closer by ever ball. Monty is going up for everything but the umpires have rather done a good job so far. Link to comment
apocalypse Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 now only a miracle can save the Windies Link to comment
Donny Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Not quite a miracle when just good sense will get them home. Taylor is playing sensibly and no need to mention what the Prince of Twitch is capable of. 76 needed. Link to comment
King Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 It's all happenning here. Chanders looking very positive. 5 runs off the first over post lunch and Monty hits Chanders in the helmet such is the bounce :omg_smile: Harmison's back too. Expect some wides eh :P Link to comment
King Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 Harmison strikes, Taylor goes to a steep short ball. Hussain and Lloyd are way excited. Lloyd says "Harmison's back" and Hussain goes "Top class". Harmison strikes yet again and the 9th one goes. Unfortunately the 9, 10 and jack of WI are not good enough to handle the short one. I blame Chanders for putting Taylor against Harmison by taking a single the very first ball of the over. Link to comment
King Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 It's all over for the West Indies now. I an Bell has pulled out a catch out of nowhere. Top class catch that one. The Calypso collapso did happen in the end and the last 3 wickets went in a heap. Link to comment
apocalypse Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 now only the formalities remain. Yeah ravi, playing taylor against harminson was a bad choice Link to comment
King Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 MV is now the most successful captain for England with this test win. I have to say MV has won fair bit of test matches in a short while. He should be glad he didn't get to captain against the Aussies in the 2006-07 Ashes. He will now get to keep a decent captaincy record against the Aussies too. Link to comment
Donny Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 The disappointing bit for me was Taylor losing concentration. He had played well for 46 deliveries and had simply been ducking the short ones. Why did he stand up to play the 47th. ?? Link to comment
