West Indies tour of India, Nov-Dec 2011

[Magneto]

They got what they deserved in ahmedabad...India lost...only loss in series... their booing made windies players work that much harder bad ground.. bad amenities, and therefore worst indian record on any home ground of late...

Bad amenities are not related to that :P But that game was as exciting as any other game - maybe the first game was slightly more tense. The audience went home happy.

#KnowledgableChennaiCrowd

The crowd in Ahmedabad was overtly aggressive. They booed everytime a West Indies player got out. BUT They also booed all the Indian bowlers who made false runs/starts (who would run and stop just before their delivery) And they did cheer for Pollard when Pollard responded with his 'namastes' But it was a jampacked crowd and a very lively one. The kind of crowds we need for an ODI match. Note: The Sardar Patel stadium is TERRIBLE. One of the worst in the country in terms of amenities.

:headshake:

Not surprising, Madras crowd does applaud good cricket no matter which team the player belongs to. They are known for appreciating a good performance.

He is probably going to be a nearly man and not be a permanent fixture in the team. I have time for him though, he is a first-class fielder and decent bat. Wtf is it that India like about his bowling though? I am pretty sure I have bowled less sumptuous pies than him..
