adi B Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Stunning effort and great determination shown to earn a draw :adore: Holder,smith,ramdin,roach were immense!!
HippoSucks Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Blackwood's century in the first innings was fantastic as well. :hatsoff:
Bigg Brother Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Brilliant effort by Holder.. And Roach also.. Tailenders can make difference in test matches:the thing we are lacking at!!
Cricketics Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Windies have a knack of pulling of such draws from verge of defeat. They have done plenty of times now. Another brililant effort after what it looked like a day 5 session 2 finish. Ramdin and Holder played really well. Tha tnew dude blackwood looks pretty good. Matter of time Chanderpaul score big in 2nd test. Hard to see England win a test match on this tour.
vvvslaxman Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Huge respect for Holder.. what a pressure knock. Seen him play few useful knocks in one dayers. This is something else.
YCCC Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 They showed great spirit and determination and after my comments about them on day 1 that was good to see However, England's bowling rarely threatened on a docile pitch (nothing new there). If they'd been playing Aus or SA they'd have been all out by tea
Zero_Unit Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 thats some amazing performance. came out of jaws of defeat
G_B_ Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 this guy Jason Holder gives a ****. So refreshing to see.
Gollum Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 :hatsoff: Holder is the real deal, just 23 years old and what commitment,passion and discipline. Monumental save by them, should give them lots of confidence.
Zelig Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 J Holder: Words can't describe what yesterday meant to me and also the entire WI team. I salute the fans who never left their seats, the fans who care and the fans who hurt when we don't do well but still come back to cricket and keep supporting. Those people have kept me going personally and no doubt without that never ending love it wouldn't be possible. Many people touched my life in some form or fashion and yesterday when I walked off that field with a feeling of accomplishment I remembered my Grandfather who passed a few years ago and also Nelson Mandela. Those are two great men in my eyes and I will never ever forget their contributions to many people's lives. As I always say GIVE THANKS without the creator we cannot trod this earth and no doubt he lives within all of us. The word in the dressing room is BELIEF and I will continue to believe in every West Indian who steps onto the field of play to represent our region because i know that we have what it takes to make strides forward but we just need a strong collective band of brothers to emerge and push for success as one. I just want the world to know I do believe and anytime I lose that belief i guarantee that's the end of my career. If he improves his bowling, this guy will be the best all-rounder in a couple of years. :hatsoff:
Gollum Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 :hatsoff: Hope our IPL rockstars take some inspiration from this youngster instead of sucking up to failures like Gay R Khan, Preity Zinta, Shilpa and other Bollywood clowns.
