Australia in West Indies, 2012

Lord Aggy haters :finger: Agarkar Bowls Kallis with an Absolute Brilliant Delivery, India Vs South Africa - YouTube

Without doubt, I think this series against South Africa in Ireland is the best he's bowled for a series. It's the only time we have won a series against South Africa outside India.

Ha ha, with amateur players like Vinay Kumar right? :--D

[Old guy]

Ha ha' date=' with amateur players like Vinay Kumar right? :--D[/quote'] according o people here vinay kumar would ve gotten bradman out 10/10 times.. after all he is from prof era.. so respect the legend :whack:

[Old guy]

Yeah but Bradman would have been bored out of scoring 10 triple centuries and give his wicket away. Vinny the legend indeed. :haha:

u cant deny facts :mad:

Haddin flies home for personal reasons http://www.espncricinfo.com/west-indies-v-australia-2012/content/current/story/557467.html

Australia's Test wicketkeeper Brad Haddin is returning home from the Caribbean for personal reasons, casting doubt over his place in the team for three matches against the West Indies next month.

Is it something to do with mental distress/depression a la Trescothick :hmmm:

dont joke could be serious more over these are aussies we are talking abt.. they are mentally tough i will give them that!

Haddin not returning to West Indies

While the precise reason for Haddin's decision to remain at home is unclear, it does raise serious doubts over whether his international career will continue. Australia's next Test series is not until the 2012-13 home summer, when they face South Africa, by which time Haddin will be 35 and will no longer be the incumbent in any format.

http://www.espncricinfo.com/west-indies-v-australia-2012/content/current/story/558401.html It looks like this Aussie is mentally disintegrated. Oh Miss "Whiner", where art thou?

good thing for aussies

Smith returns to Twenty20 squad against Australia

Dwayne Smith, the allrounder, has returned to the West Indies squad for the first Twenty20 international against Australia on March 27. Smith last played for West Indies in September 2011, in a T20I against England. West Indies have also called up fast bowler Fidel Edwards, left-arm medium-pacer Krishmar Santokie, left-arm spinner Garey Mathurin and allrounder Nkrumah Bonner. Smith has had an impressive time in Twenty20 cricket with the bat of late. He was the third-highest run-getter in the Caribbean T20 competition, scoring 165 runs at a strike-rate of 136.36. He then represented Khulna Royal Bengals in the Bangladesh Premier League, making 346 runs at 137.30. Santokie was the leading wicket-taker in the Caribbean T20, with 14 wickets for Jamaica, including a hat-trick, in six matches at an economy-rate of 6.12. Bonner was the second-highest run-getter in the competition, with 172 runs for Jamaica at a strike-rate of 96.08. Mathurin has had a good start to the domestic first-class season, with 18 wickets in five matches for Windward Islands at an average of 18.83. Edwards had been playing for the Dolphins franchise in the South African MiWay T20 Challenge. He made a comeback for West Indies in May last year after being out for almost two years due to a back injury, and was given a Grade B contract by the West Indies Cricket Board in October. "We have named a squad with a mixture of experience and youth and we believe they have the quality to defeat the Australians," the West Indies chairman of selectors Clyde Butts said. "We also use these matches as part of our continued preparations for the ICC World T20 Championship in Sri Lanka in September. That tournament is not far away and we want to make sure we get ready for that event as well." The West Indies players from the ongoing ODI series against Australia who've not been picked for the T20 are Adrian Barath, Tino Best, Kemar Roach and Devendra Bishoo. The teams will play two Twenty20 internationals.

West Indies squad for first T20 Darren Sammy (capt), Dwayne Bravo (vice-capt), Carlton Baugh (wk), Nkrumah Bonner, Darren Bravo, Johnson Charles, Fidel Edwards, Garey Mathurin, Sunil Narine, Kieron Pollard, Andrew Russell, Marlon Samuels, Krishmar Santokie, Dwayne Smith

Is Pollard finally graduating from a T20 specialist to a good ODI player? First he hits a solid 119 against us, where he threatened to take the game away singlehandedly (http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/536933.html) He then turns up with a solid 47* in a low scoring game and then two game later with the WIndies score reading a 106-4 (25.3 overs) blasts a 70 ball 102 to lead WI to a healthy 294-7, and WI ultimately win the game. http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/540171.html Is he finally adjusting to the ODI format and turning into a good No.6 or is this one of those flash in the pan phase a few ordinary cricketers goes through. I hope its the first, for it will surely be a boon for WI cricket and a treat for us to watch.
