Re: Super Eights - West Indies vs England
I'm not surprised. Samuels is not the most intelligent cricketer around, I could say more but I'll bite my tongue.
But anyway, if I'm to judge from the current trend in thought...once Lara goes Sammy will suddenly become a brilliant cricketer...
Re: Lara Quits
Brilliant batsman, Lara on song was one of the greatest sights ever seen in cricket. I will always remember his 277 in Sydney. He's played better and larger innings, but that special moment when he stated his intent to the world was a glorious sight to behold.
While I think he...
Re: Super Eights - West Indies v Bangladesh
230 for 5
Sarwan played a decent knock to get to 91...and remained not out...
Lara tried to up the ante but got out for 32...
Shiv tried to rebuild.....slowly...
And what has become typical for this tournament... opening batsmen failed...
Re: Super Eights - Australia vs Sri Lanka
I agree. I think the plan was to not let the Aussie batsmen get too acquainted with the best bowlers in a meaningless match. That said, I personally think one should always be aggressive in these matches, even the so called meaningless ones -...
Re: Super 8s - Bangladesh vs. England
Good effort from these young bangladeshi fellas ( with a sprinkling of older guys). If they managed to get over the 200 mark, they could have won this, but so small a total is near impossible to defend.
England has alot of work to do to reach within...
Re: Super Eights - West Indies vs South Africa
marlyminks,
There's a lack of unity in the team. Jerome Taylor is unfit, Samuels was dropped. Smith......Eventually we'll know the reasons. Lara will retire soon from ODIs (He should retire from tests too but for some reason, feels he still has...
Re: First Tendulkar, now Lara
Brian is a star, a genius. Geniuses don't necessarily make good leaders, but who could captain this team? When are West Indians going to take the necessary steps to revitalise cricket?
I for one don't understand what all the talk is about. It's as though people...
Re: Is Windies cricket dying?
lol, you stated a position without knowing the real facts. That blend of ignorance with arrogance. You'd have been better off approaching this with an inquiring mind.
But you want to think it's the US destroyed cricket in the West Indies.. ok...
Re: Malinga da Slinga
Malinga's action is not orthodox but it is clean as a whistle. There is nothing "dodgey" about it. His arm comes around rather than straight.
As for chucking, I'm all for it. Plus it gives the spinners more to work with. If Murali can do it, why not everybody...
Re: Super Eights - West Indies vs Australia
Definitely, coaches are important. But there must also be desire and drive to improve, guidance and willingness to act on advice.
I still have faith in Gayle. I think he can be more than a slogger. Both he and Hayden have a similar build, hit the...
