edit

[zMario]

Has Pathan gone bald?

[zMario]

Read lineup again, z10, Kaif is there

[zMario]

What a delivery, Gayle had no idea, late swing!

[zMario]

Great maiden over from Pathan,

I bet Indias gonna win again - they're chasing

[jusarrived]

vry good start by pathan!

[zMario]

Woah, I'm surprised by Morton's avg, 40.

[jusarrived]

I expect this to be a easy win for us today!

[jusarrived]

gayles strike rate just 78???

[zMario]

West Indies off the mark with a single!

[zMario]

GONE!

CAUGHT BEHIND!!!!!!!

Gayle, the centurion is gone!

[zMario]

West Indies 1/1

[zMario]

Wow, Sarwan's average is 44!!

[Easa]

Agarkar given the new ball and has struck immediately. Well bowled, big ears.

[Easa]

Wow, Sarwan's average is 44!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!

[zMario]

What the hell, how did he miss, WI should be 1/2

[zMario]

Thats out... either LBW, or if he hit it with his bat, it would be caught...

[zMario]

GONE!!!!

Morton is out!!!!

WI in huge trouble!

[zMario]

LARA Has walked in....

Now if Lara gets out, WI have lost again I think

[Easa]

India on a roll here.

This might just be a cakewalk.

[Easa]

The great man, Lara in.

Expecting some magic today.

[zMario]

Well, WI struggling, even Lara is struggling to cope with swing

[Easa]

Wicket maiden for Irfan Pathan.

Well bowled, sir. He really is dangerous when the ball is swinging in the early overs. Quite useless later on, though.

[invincible]

agarkar bowling around 83-85 mph ... decent control over early new ball swing ...

expect him to do some more damage ...

2-2 (wide bowled)

3.5 overs

[zMario]

Wicket maiden for Irfan Pathan.

Well bowled, sir. He really is dangerous when the ball is swinging in the early overs. Quite useless later on, though.
Really? I think he's useless all the time. He cannot bat, without lots and lots of luck, and his bowling is only good with the new ball, and even I can get a wicket with a new ball, and a very good pitch made for bowlers.

[zMario]

West Indies have added 1 more run to the total, I think that is a major accomplishment!

West Indies 2/2

[zMario]

West Indies get a FOUR!!!!!!

WI 6/2, and Lara is off the mark!

[invincible]

3 slips for lara ... ball goes down the leg side ... gets slight contact and the ball races away to the boundary fence ...

[zMario]

And Lara gets a single!

[Easa]

Really? I think he's useless all the time. He cannot bat, without lots and lots of luck, and his bowling is only good with the new ball, and even I can get a wicket with a new ball, and a very good pitch made for bowlers.

I don't like him much either but the fact of the matter is that he is a decent batsman and a very good swing bowler in the first few overs.

Plus he's young, he has plenty of time to improve and learn and he seems like a good student of the game.

[zMario]

Sarwans off the mark

[zMario]

I don't like him much either but the fact of the matter is that he is a decent batsman and a very good swing bowler in the first few overs.

Plus he's young, he has plenty of time to improve and learn and he seems like a good student of the game.
Well, true, but I mean, to make a pure bowler become an all rounder is difficult, almost impossible...

I think Pathan is best utilized as a pure bowler, and put in 8 or 9

[Easa]

Argubly the best two batsman for the Windies out in the middle currently.

Lets hope, for Windies sake, that they can put together a formidable partnership.

[Easa]

Well, true, but I mean, to make a pure bowler become an all rounder is difficult, almost impossible...

I think Pathan is best utilized as a pure bowler, and put in 8 or 9

He's good enough to bat at number seven, the position he is currently batting in.

His average is 28, and that is very decent.

[jusarrived]

yeah WI's best batsmen n middle..lara needs to give him support!

[Easa]

9-2 (4.5)

[zMario]

Lara could have been out, middle and leg, maybe high

[invincible]

it wasn't that high ... looked quite close to me ... i feel lara's lucky to be out there still ... he seems a bit tentative in the middle

9/2

5.5 overs ...

[zMario]

West Indies 9/2 after 6 overs, and if I were the WI fans, I wouldn't be cheering right now...

[zMario]

They get another single...

Yay Dean Jones on, usually India start losing when he's commentating

[jusarrived]

it amazes me how much agarkar has improved lately....decent pace,geniuenly troubles batsmen with swing n bowls slower balls vry well......I actually wanted this team out of the team some time back!

[zMario]

In the air, doesn't matter, FOUR for Lara!!!

[invincible]

even half the lara's true self is dangerous ... that 4 showed it all ...

[zMario]

Hmm... well fielded!

[zMario]

4 WIDES... WI Need this badly!!!

[invincible]

Both Lara and Dhoni showing their true colours ... sloppy work there by dhoni ...

7 overs ... 16/2

[zMario]

Both Lara and Dhoni showing their true colours ... sloppy work there by dhoni ...

7 overs ... 16/2
LOL hahhahahah

thats so true though!

[zMario]

WHAT A BALL by Agarkar!!

[zMario]

OUTSIDE EDGE!!!

Did it carry? YES!!!

DROPPED!

[jusarrived]

lara droped!

good bowling aggy!

[zMario]

Great fielding by Sehwag!!

[jusarrived]

wow fielded by shewag..saved a boundry there!

[invincible]

soooooooooo happy to see indians fielding well (sehwag) and powar stopping a ball cleanly ...

wish raina had taken that catch ... but no complaints ... he already proved a lot for his age and this was just a flash in the pan (hopefully) ...

[zMario]

QUICK SINGLE!!!

Close, is it out?!

[jusarrived]

:)) :)) umpire missing!

[zMario]

THEY STARTED THE OVER WITHOUT THE SQUARE LEG UMPIRE!

What in the world?!

[zMario]

Well, the batsmans made it

[zMario]

Dead ball signalled...

[invincible]

funniest incident i have seen in cricket for a long time ...

over to be re-started ...

[jusarrived]

:)) rainas n shewags reaction was hillarious!

[zMario]

Man this is a comedy!

[invincible]

reminds me of a song ---

Kal tha mein yahaan ... woh bhi thi yaheen ...

Aaj mein phir yahaan ... lekin woh nahin ...

[zMario]

BRILLIANT SHOT, Brilliant save by Powar, the fat guy!!

[invincible]

POWARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR !!!!

saves 3 runs !!! wass wrong with him today ???

[jusarrived]

powar diving like kaifi there...!

[zMario]

I wonder, will Chris Broad fine the umpires? :)))

[zMario]

No ball called....

I'm still laughing at Raina and Sehwag's reaction!!

[invincible]

beautiful cover drive there by lara -- gets 3 runs

9th over --- 20/2

Lara struggling to get into a rhythm ... not timing the ball correctly ... few close lbw shouts ...

[zMario]

That won't be four, WI get 2 more

[zMario]

Trying a good cover drive, Lara!

[zMario]

Great over,

WI 20/2

[invincible]

deano continues to rave about lara being out there ... i agree he is right to certain extent but the way he says it makes one feel as if he is set for a double hundred ...

[zMario]

Good running, leg bye called

[invincible]

another decent over by agarkar ...

5-2-4-1 --- he is in a great spell at the moment ... hope he gets one of these two batsmen before the end of the spell ..

[zMario]

Has Powerplay 2 been taken? I'm making food

[zMario]

Really invincible? I hope Agarkar gets hit for 50 in his last 5 overs lol

[invincible]

yep -- pp2's been taken ... comon - 10 overs 22/2 ... even my doggie would go for it ... mind u - its not really intelligent ...

so u wish aggarkar to be hit for 50 runs ?? the way these two batsmen are playing --- not possible unless these two batsman get out this over ...

[invincible]

lara goneeeeeeeeeeeeee ... pathan ... huge out swinger ... lara reaches for it ... good catch by dravid ...

[z10]

lara goneeeeeeeeeeeeee


****

[zMario]

LARA OUT!!!

PATHAN Strikes!

[Easa]

The great man, Lara goes.

Well bowled.

[invincible]

****

:D :D

[z10]

:D :D


f**king hell!

[zMario]

Chanderpaul walks in!

[zMario]

At this rate, India's extras may be more than the runs WI actually score!

[invincible]

f**king hell!
comon maan ... dont let ur hopes down :9: :9: they are 25/3 in 11 overs ... but still have lot of batting to come ... :D :D :D

[z10]

comon maan ... dont let ur hopes down :9: :9: they are 25/3 in 11 overs ... but still have lot of batting to come ... :D :D :D


don't really care for the game or the winner

just wanted to watch the great one

[zMario]

Bad ball by Agarkar, should have been cut away for four!

[zMario]

WHAT a BALL!!!!

Sarwan is struggling against Agarkar. Brilliant bowling!

[invincible]

12 overs - 26/3 ... agarkar beat sarwan's bat twice ... apart from that - nothing much eventful ...

[zMario]

Quick single, well done!

12 overs gone, 26/3 WI

[CrickFan]

Windies - should stop playing cricket - the fans cannot take it any more . It's official - windies cricket is dead and burried

[invincible]

pathan's last ball - 69 mph ... samuels bowled at 64 mph in the 1st ODI (spin, mind u) ... but i guess thats helping him in these conditions ...

[zMario]

13 overs gone, 27/3

[zMario]

Windies - should stop playing cricket - the fans cannot take it any more . It's official - windies cricket is dead and burried
They still remain a force to be reckoned with, remember the 1st ODI?

[zMario]

Agarkar set to get the most economical score in ODIs..

[invincible]

yuvraj shows off :9: :9: gr8 fielding there ... :14:

[invincible]

Agarkar set to get the most economical score in ODIs..
we are always worried about records u see :D but for once its bowling :O

[zMario]

14 overs gone, WI 28/3, and it is drinks!

[CrickFan]

guys - hats off to u - u can still put up with calypso crap !!

[zMario]

Harbhajahns on...

I hope he gets hit for SIX! :)

[zMario]

hahhahaa, has it gone for SIX!?

Inside, out!!!

Thats four!!

GONE FOR IT AGAIN!!!

Another FOUR!

[invincible]

good batting by chanderpaul ... now i feel like watching this game :D

[invincible]

munaf begins ... takes some inspiration from pathan and starts at 77 mph

2nd ball --- a bit quicker ---

good ball --- nothing of a shot from sarwan ... beats the bat ...

[Swaraj!!]

Just got in.....what is this
Agarkar 7 Over 5 Runs 1 Wicket ?

[invincible]

Agarkar 7 Over 5 Runs 1 Wicket ?
Man-made wonder of the world :D

Chanderpaul goes !!! Bhajji gets his man ... :27: :27:

[Easa]

43-4

Terrible shot by Chanders; straight to Kaif at cover.

West Indies really struggling now, Harby picks up the wicket. Samuels in, now.

[Rob H]

Deep in the thick stuff once again. It must be hard job being a West Indies fan. I couldn't watch my team perform like this so often.

[Swaraj!!]

Oh Well.....Will we have a full day of cricket. On second thoughts it is a good Oppty to see Dwayne Bravos Beastliness today. If he comes off that it. I really hope he does. It would be a waste of a match really the way this is going.

Tell me ....is it the pitch. Indians are adequate bowlers but certainly not as good as the scoreline indicates. If it is the pitch then it might be interesting seeing them bat on it.

[Easa]

Sarwan hanging in there.

He needs to get a big one if West Indies even hope to reach a fighting score, 200.

[Swaraj!!]

Finally the scoreboard is moving ahead now.

[Oxy]

14 overs gone, WI 28/3, and it is drinks!WI shouldnt be allowed any drinks!

[Easa]

WI shouldnt be allowed any drinks!

:))

A combination of poor batting and some good, accurate swing bowling.

[Easa]

Deep in the thick stuff once again. It must be hard job being a West Indies fan. I couldn't watch my team perform like this so often.

Ditto.

[Easa]

75-4 (25.2)

[Noman]

Can anyone answar this question in details?

Why is LAras batting so poor against India???

[invincible]

Can anyone answar this question in details?

Why is LAras batting so poor against India???
over-complacency ?? :13:

i am not the man to go into details ... so, i wont ... :|

[Noman]

over-complacency ?? :13:

i am not the man to go into details ... so, i wont ... :|


I dont think so..... When u play over a country like India there is no room for complacency!!

[jusarrived]

I don have the stats...but don remember lara ever playing a useful knock against us,even during his peak!

[jusarrived]

samules gone! 103/5 n 35ovrs

[jusarrived]

now 108/6 ...hope they cross 200!

[Swaraj!!]

I still have those hangover from the old days when you just couldnt be sure regarding India's batting. All those guys and they could still crumble while chasing. Even inspite of the current streak there is some thing which tells me to be circumspect. But whatever.

[HAFRIDI]

Good to see Agarkar doing well ! One of my fav players of the indian team

[ikhan]

Rahul Dravid has opted to bowl first, and Ramesh Powar is playing. I always call Powar motta motta!

INDIA :

[Amjid Javed]

Bradshaw hammers ball don ground for 4.

W.I 152/7 (44.2)

india should win this with ease!

[Amjid Javed]

Bradshaw hauls out to harbhajhan off bowling of pathan.

W.I 163/8 (46.3)

3rd wicket for pathan.

[Hash]

What is it with India and winning the toss?

They seem to win practically every single toss!

[pakistani pride]

When it will matter they will lose the toss and match as always . . . hahah dont worry hash !

[Hash]

174 for 8 after 48 overs.

[Hash]

Sarwan taking the fake Pathan to the cleaners.

4, 4 and 6 from the last three balls

189 for 8. Sarwan on 95

[jusarrived]

good fighting knock. by sarwan....deserves a century!

[Amjid Javed]

Looks like sarwan will be stranded on 98* not out.

W.I 197/9 (49.5)

[Amjid Javed]

w.i 198/9 (50)

india will win this by 7 wkts is my prediction.

[Hash]

Unlucky Sarwan.

198 for 9 is nowhere near enough. India will coast to victory with absolute ease.

[Amjid Javed]

India should win the 18th straight odi chasing, its an amazing record.

[Amjid Javed]

India 24/0 (5)

india off to solid start!

[Amjid Javed]

Sehwag goes, shovels a airy fairy drive to short point.

india 25/1

[Rob H]

Well Sehwag is a good start but the fact is the Indian batting line is too good to slip up here, especially with the run doctor at the crease.

[APOCALYPSE]

Well all Pakistanis can do now is pray for India to lose!!!!!!!!

[the_game]

Sehwag has really gone down the drain since his "I love Pakistan's bowling" comments. I love it.

[sneekysneeky]

Sehwag has really gone down the drain since his "I love Pakistan's bowling" comments. I love it.
haha... me too...

[jusarrived]

Dravid gone...are we goin to make this one interesting too!

[Hash]

Dravid gone

Big wicket

Windies back in the game now! Come on!

[Tupac]

maan....even beating Windies 5-0 will give us only 2 points in the rankings!

[Oxy]

maan....even beating Windies 5-0 will give us only 2 points in the rankings!Well they're not up there with the top teams...

[Amjid Javed]

West indies are a poor odi side, id put them on a par with england.

[Amjid Javed]

India 40/2 (11)

[jusarrived]

maan....even beating Windies 5-0 will give us only 2 points in the rankings!


I expect it to be 4-1 ...we have to gift one match,even playing bangla!

[Amjid Javed]

another run out chance missed. once again this is a major area of difference between two sides.

[Amjid Javed]

Pathan smashes ball thru infield for 4.

been allowed to free his arms here!

India 50/2

[zMario]

BRILLIANT CATCH!

What a wonder!

Pathans gone!

[Hash]

Fake Pathan gone!

51 for 3 after 14 overs!

Come on Windies!

[zMario]

Just catching up with the action, West Indies stand half a chance, if India continue at this run-rate.

Sarwan made a brilliant 98, he certainly deserved a 100 for what he did for the Windies!

[Hash]

Kaif comes in.

Let's see what the 'new Kaif' can do.

[jusarrived]

still think this will be easy for us...we need just one decent partnership!

[Hash]

still think this will be easy for us...we need just one decent partnership!

Windies need to get wickets at regular intervals.

[jusarrived]

Windies need to get wickets at regular intervals.

which will only make the game close..indians will scrape thru even then!

[Amjid Javed]

India batted pretty much all the way down. Aggy and powar can both handle the bat so west indies still have alot of work to do here.

India 55/3 (15)

final power-play taken.

[zMario]

Lots of no balls, good running from India

[zMario]

Windies need to get wickets at regular intervals.
West Indies need 2 more wickets now

[Amjid Javed]

West Indies need 2 more wickets now

Kaif gone, ugly looking slog thru legside. smith pouches it easily.

India 60/4

[Hash]

There is the 'new Kaif' that we were all promised to see! HAHAHAHAHA

COME ON WINDIES!

[Amjid Javed]

very poor shot! to straight a ball to pull.

Raina new man in.

[Amjid Javed]

superb fielding by lara, stops 4.

west indies look fired up here!

[bladerunner]

someone has a free link of the match which he can PM me?

I am desprately lookin for a link :(

[Amjid Javed]

Maiden over, top bowling from edwards.

india 60/4 (18)

[zMario]

Brilliant maiden,

Can WI pull off an upset? They had a chance on Thursday, but now they have another chance!

[pakistani pride]

Come On Wi !

[jusarrived]

India will win this by 5 or 4 wikts!

[Amjid Javed]

what a dreamy cover drive for 4 by yuvraj.

india 64/4

[Amjid Javed]

Next ball yuvi almost hauls out down the ground.

[zMario]

Great shot by Yuvraj, WI need his wicket to win

[zMario]

IN THE AIR, that should have been taken, EVEN I COULD TAKE THAT CATCH!

[Hash]

Great shot by Yuvraj, WI need his wicket to win

His and the other five as well

[z10]

India will win this by 5 or 4 wikts!


stop being so optimistic ;)

[Amjid Javed]

Yuvi almost chips ball to short cover. lucky again!

[zMario]

FOUR, now.... great shot by Raina

[Hash]

India were VERY lucky yesterday as well, especially Kaif towards the end. Looks like luck is on their side today too.

70 for 4 after 20 overs. Windies cannot afford even one partnership to build......they cannot let anyone settle down.

[Amjid Javed]

Gayle onto bowl now.

[Rob H]

If India loose a wicket now then i think the Windies could win it but India do have their long haired lover from Liverpool to come in next. He is so good at chasing totals.

[jusarrived]

stop being so optimistic ;)


cant help,born this way! :)

[zMario]

5 runs off the over, 71/4 IND

[Amjid Javed]

India were VERY lucky yesterday as well, especially Kaif towards the end. Looks like luck is on their side today too.

70 for 4 after 20 overs. Windies cannot afford even one partnership to build......they cannot let anyone settle down.

Kaifs inns was very dodgy, he failed to pick gaps alot of time.

I wouldnt say india were very lucky to win thou. West indies gave away to many extras and fielded pathetically.

India won with 1 ball to spare, yet if west indies had taken their catches or not bowled so many extras they would have been defending 15-20 runs more and they would have won.

[Amjid Javed]

Both lefties hammering ball as hard as they can here. West indies need to get both these batsmen out asap.

india 76/4

[jusarrived]

had kaif got out early,match wud ahve been easier for india!

Beautiful shot, deserved a four!

[Amjid Javed]

Streaky shot thru backward point for 4 by yuvraj.

India 81/4

[zMario]

FOUR, great shot!

[zMario]

India 82/4

Good over, just 2 off it

[Amjid Javed]

Huge shout for lbw. Looked out to me! not given.

India 88/4

[Amjid Javed]

India 96/4 (27)

[James]

Yuvraj will save India again. What a player he is.

[Noman]

your guys are wasting your time.... India will win it easily.....

[sarkar123]

your guys are wasting your time.... India will win it easily.....


you might be new to cricekt because any thing is possible in cricekt. right now india still needs one good partnership & windies couple of wickets.

[Amjid Javed]

India 109/4 (32)

partnership 45 from 90 balls.

90 needed from 18 overs.

[James]

:O Could it be that the Windies are actually bowling well today? Great knock by Yuvraj in the making here, he can be patient as well as destructive, he realises that this isn't a pitch where you will get 60 boundaries in 50 overs and is respecting the bowling. Sorry to put it like this but certain players I could think of would have holed out by now :21:

[James]

Raina gone! Getting very interesting

The Yuvraj Dhoni partnership will make or break this Indian innings, for me

[Hash]

India still very much on top here with 5 wickets in hand.

[James]

If either one of these gets out (especially if it was Yuvraj because he has played himself in) then I would say advantage Windies. 5 an over on this pitch is still quite hard when the tail enders start coming in.

Remember this is the Windies we are talking about. Normal rules/logic does not apply to them since they are more than capable of losing from any situation.

[Hash]

Dhoni OUT

PLEASE WINDIES! PLEASE PLEASE! COME ON!

[James]

:D

Come on Windies

[pakistani pride]

Wooooooooooohoooooooooooooo

[sneekysneeky]

dhoom dhoom dhoni :))

Dhoni bowled hahahhaha.

[Hash]

another wide

For CRYING OUT LOUD!

Windies have got to be even worse for giving away extras in ODIs than England. Kabir Ali has given me nightmares at times...

Why do the Indians call Dhoni "beast with brains"? He plays the most idiotic of shots at the worst times often.

Now the Windies are on top

[zMario]

India 134-7, this is gonna be tight, but West Indies have an opportunity. They gotta take it. This is a nailbiter all right!

[sneekysneeky]

ahahahah at the 4 or 5 wicket win prediction

[zMario]

Ramesh Powar walks in

[jusarrived]

:( common yuviiiiiiiiii !

[the_game]

17 chases in a row,Dhoni is one major factor for that record..realx its just one off game for him!

I don't remember him winning all 17 ODI's for you. I only remember the idiotic shots he played in the Karachi and Mumbai tests :D .

[James]

If anything Yuvraj is the beast with brains today. Only Indian player who has a clue how to play on this pitch and against this bowling today.

[the_game]

India can still take it. Yuvraj needs to bat with the tail sensibly; he is good enough to win it for India.

[jusarrived]

ahahahah at the 4 or 5 wicket win prediction

Time to edit that post :D

[Hash]

65 from 66 with 3 wickets in hand

This has been an excellent performance by the Windies bowlers. Even if they don't win.....which is more than likely, they gave their all and put up an excellent show :14:

Showing that....

1. Either this Windies side is better than they are rated

OR

2. This Indian side is worse than they are rated

Two games in a row now where Windies have given India a real run for their money.......more so than they gave us last year.

[zMario]

Need 64 from 65!


GOOD YORKER!!!

Need 63 from 64 balls

[jusarrived]

powar shud go for the shots!

dunno about indian teambeing overrated..cos their record lately speaks for themslvs...but hav a feeling WI might pulloff few upsets n WC on ther home ground!

[the_game]

Powar, itni bari tond hai, use kar.

[zMario]

Cut away, for FOUR!!!

dunno about indian teambeing overrated..cos their record lately speaks for themslvs...but hav a feeling WI might pulloff few upsets n WC on ther home ground!

Have you ever thought about the real reason for your winnings recently? FLAT tracks :D . Only Dravid, Sachin and Yuvraj really have the class to survive on tracks like the one today and win games for India.

58 from 60 balls with 3 wickets in hand

Have a feeling India will sneak home.

Dravid ,yuvi n sachin makeup half our batting side....shewag has scored centuries all over the world....raina n Dhoni are yet to be tested to pass a judgement....think we will be fine! :19:

Sehwag is pretty rubbish these days in ODIs

Raina looks OK to me. Dhoni's "bura time" is yet to come.

Oh please don't turn this into another Sachin thread. I am sick of talking about the guy.

Anyway....

47 runs from 52 balls. 3 wickets........Windies need to get one of these two otherwise India will win. They wont be able to limit India with Yuvraj and Powar at the crease.

[zMario]

Hmm... THEY HAVE TO GET YUVRAJ

I meant to say, survive on hard tracks. Winning to choro, sab hi ko pata hai how many games he has won for India :D .

Yuvraj bahut hi dangerous hai yaar. West Indies needs to get him now!

[zMario]

FOUR!!!

Man, India might win!

Thats the amazing thing about this team...we are playing with 5 batsmen+Dhoni...with kaif n shewag out of form...still Dravid has the confidence to put opposition to bat n win matches...inspite of playing badly,they have been winning...watch out for us wen these players r back n form!

15 runs off the over

That has swung it back to India who are now firmly in control of this game! As I said earlier.......never underestimate the ability of the Windies to lose from any given situation.
