West Indies v India | World T20 | Lords |12/6/09

[IMMY69]

150 would be a decent total....but then there is the gayle force factor to consider

[Mohsin]

150 on THAT Lords track would be very very very good indeed!

[Lethal]

Poor ball again from Taylor.

Yusuf dispatches it to the boundary for 4.

[insaftak]

4444444444444 taylor is stinking up, why didn't gayle bowl this over

[IMMY69]

why is taylor bowling from round the wicket???

its a useless strategy

[DonJee]

We need Tony Creig here! Anil Kumble is so dead, his tone never go up!


WHERE IS TONY?

[hasanb]

This is poor finishing by the west indies...half tracker followed by mis fielding

[Lethal]

Sitter dropped by Taylor off his own bowling.

[insaftak]

dot ball

[hasanb]

We need Tony Creig here! Anil Kumble is so dead, his tone never go up!


WHERE IS TONY?

haha that is so true

[jusarrived]

damn , get a single at least ...poor stuff from pathan

[insaftak]

another dot ball

[Inswinging Yorker]

boring kumble again

[Lethal]

140-5 after 19 overs.

1 over to go.

[IMMY69]

right 10 needed by india to give them a real competitive total...

[hasanb]

140/5 after 19...can windies keep them below 150?

[jusarrived]

140 , with 6 balls spare ...1st target achieved

[insaftak]

140 after 19

[Inswinging Yorker]

140

[Lethal]

Taylor conceded 44 off his 4 overs.

Very expensive.

[Inswinging Yorker]

bowlwddddddddddddddddddddddd hhaaaaaaa

first target achieved

[hasanb]

bowled him!!! gooo bravoooo! great start to the over!

[Inswinging Yorker]

140 , with 6 balls spare ...1st target achieved
really? :13:

india was lookin for 140? :))

[Lethal]

Bravo's first ball to Yusuf is a full length yorker.

Yusuf is clean bowled for 31.

Bravo bravo.

[Inswinging Yorker]

single

[Lethal]

Bhajji is the new batsman.

[shaun3]

incredible ball by bravo. full, nips back in at the last second to hit the bottom of the off stump

[Inswinging Yorker]

caughttttttttttttttttttttttttt another for my fellow country man

[Lethal]

Irfan Pathan gone this time.

Another wicket for Bravo and another catch for Simmons.

[hasanb]

hahaaaa another wicket for bravo brilliant last over this so far!!

[insaftak]

another gone, bravo doing well for my fantasy team

[IMMY69]

windies finishing on a high here...

momentum being won back by the windies...

despite the four just hit

[jusarrived]

really? :13:

india was lookin for 140? :))

not really , but at 30/3 after 5 or 65/4 after 12 ...this more than any one wud have thot we cud achieve !

[Lethal]

Bhajji guides it for 4 through third man.

[Lethal]

Carbon copy of the previous ball. Its the same result for bhajji. 4

[hasanb]

well thats just ruined all the hard work...its down to gayle and co now

[jusarrived]

Harbajans timing is as good as Yuvis & am not kidding !

[IMMY69]

so harby guides india to 153...but is this enough?

[Inswinging Yorker]

153 not a bad target...bad finish by bravo

[jusarrived]

thank good only 38 of bravos 4 overs , no negative points :)

[Lethal]

Another 4 for Bhajji.

3 4's off the last 3 balls.

13 off the over.

India finish with 153.

[insaftak]

bhaji with 3 4s in last three balls

[insaftak]

thank good only 38 of bravos 4 overs , no negative points :)
:))) :))) :)))

[Inswinging Yorker]

so harby guides india to 153...but is this enough?
no hope gayle and fletcher blows them away

[Mohsin]

I really hope i'm wrong but Gayle will fail, too much is expected of him.

153 is an abover average score, especially with the pitch getting harder and harder to bat on.

[Uncle Sam]

This is a low scoring ground. I see Gayle not making huge impact today.
India should easily win the game from here on.

[insaftak]

all depends on gayle, lets do it gayle

[insaftak]

I really hope i'm wrong but Gayle will fail, too much is expected of him.

153 is an abover average score, especially with the pitch getting harder and harder to bat on.

that would be bad news for my team

[Inswinging Yorker]

come on gayleeeeeeeeeeee have some indian curry for dinner :))) :))

[jusarrived]

:))) :))) :)))

was worried he wud hit the last one for a 6 :)))

in my defense , wat difference wud a 153 or 155 against WI make ? we will either win by 30 runs or loose with 4 overs to spare :)

[hasanb]

gayle and fletcher have to fire...windies have sarwan and chanderpaul as well as bravo too so its a strong line up, india are favourites though at this stage on a wearing pitch, but come on windies!!

[P4K1 #1]

should be a good game.. if gayle fires expect windies to win easily.

[invincible]

was worried he wud hit the last one for a 6 :)))

in my defense , wat difference wud a 153 or 155 against WI make ? we will either win by 30 runs or loose with 4 overs to spare :)
That is so true :))) It's scaringly funny, that!

[Inswinging Yorker]

good ball by zaheer

[insaftak]

[Inswinging Yorker]

keeping gayle quiet

[insaftak]

Gayle to score 99 n.o.

[insaftak]

44444444444444 gayle starts firing

[insaftak]

Gayle to score 99 n.o.

[Inswinging Yorker]

[hasanb]

super shot straight down the ground another 4 and 8 of the over

[shaun3]

gayle looking in the mood

[IMMY69]

[Lethal]

8 off the first over.

[Inswinging Yorker]

*** dead ball?

[lalaji]

oh man , pathan bowling ?

and we thought we dont have a bolwer to open... :sohail

[IMMY69]

head of both bcci and wiccb seen together in lords...apparently a cheque was being written out and shaking hands after india were 4 down...

[Inswinging Yorker]

out is fletcher

[lalaji]

and IKP strikes...lol

[insaftak]

what the hell thats not dead ball

[Lethal]

Fletcher gone. Should have hammered it down the ground.

Irfan Pathan gets wickets off some rubbish balls.

[tauseefm]

and we thought we dont have a bolwer to open... :sohail
and he got a wicket. what do u say now lalaji?

[insaftak]

wow that would put gayle under pressure,

[IMMY69]

dont worry about fletcher - he wont score today

[jusarrived]

and we thought we dont have a bolwer to open... :sohail


hes better than Tanvir though :)

[Lethal]

Simmons is the new batsman.

[insaftak]

lets destroy this fake pathan

[Lethal]

West Indies will be relying heavily on Gayle.

[USaqaf]

WI collapse coming up next.

[jusarrived]

we have to make Gayle defend

[Inswinging Yorker]

single

[insaftak]

dot ball

[Inswinging Yorker]

12 off 2

[IMMY69]

hes better than Tanvir though :)

on current form thats certainly not saying much

[hasanb]

good over in the end from pathan although it couldve been very different if koertzen didnt give that 4 as a dead ball.

[lalaji]

and he got a wicket. what do u say now lalaji?


yeah he did..credit to him...

[lalaji]

we have to make Gayle defend


good luck

[insaftak]

the other fake pathan in

[jusarrived]

on current form thats certainly not saying much

have never rated both the bowlers , so its ok

[Lethal]

Yusuf Pathan to bowl.

[Inswinging Yorker]

444444444444444444444444444444444444444 nice shot by simmonds

[insaftak]

4444444444444

[Inswinging Yorker]

18 off 3

[Lethal]

Simmons plasters the ball down the ground for 4.

18-1 after 3 overs.

[insaftak]

18 after 3 overs

[Inswinging Yorker]

haaaaaa 444444444444444444444444444444444444444444 harbajhan slipps on dog shitttttttt

[Lethal]

Gayle cracks a 4 which goes through Bhajji.

[insaftak]

crappy fielding by bhaji 4444444444

[shaun3]

hahaha bhajji

[insaftak]

good ball by pathan

[Inswinging Yorker]

not too much damage by gayle

[insaftak]

west indians aren't timing anything

[insaftak]

thats what i hate about 20/20 cricket

[Inswinging Yorker]

24/1 here

[insaftak]

gayle not scoring runs here

[hasanb]

windies have batting right down to 8 in fact even taylor can hit a few big ones so right down to 9, hopefully they wont need them though

[Inswinging Yorker]

lovely timing for 44444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444

[hasanb]

what a shot!! a little tap on the on side goes all the way to the boundary!

[jusarrived]

arguably the shot of the day

[insaftak]

444444444444444

[lalaji]

gayle is just teasing indians....:):):)

[Inswinging Yorker]

y dont gayle attack?...maybe sees no need to?

[insaftak]

almost got out there

[Inswinging Yorker]

32 off 5

[hasanb]

sweetly timed shot by simmons straight to the fielder though, but gets 2 runs just about of the last ball of the over 32-1 not a bad start this.

[jusarrived]

gayle is just teasing indians....:):):)

plying defensively ;-)

[insaftak]

32 after 5, they need to go for it

[insaftak]

harbahjan in

[jusarrived]

our best 3 bowlers are yet to bowl , so we have done well

[lalaji]

plying defensively ;-)



lol yeah ...

we all know its just a matter of time before its all over for Ricky Dhoni

[insaftak]

not playing well

[insaftak]

gayle is gonna get out

[insaftak]

3 dot balls

[hasanb]

gayle getting stuck...

[Inswinging Yorker]

gayle playing for a draw?

[insaftak]

make it 4

[mustafa]

maiden over

[insaftak]

make it 5

[Inswinging Yorker]

well i dont know whats happening...prob gayle is afraid of the indian bowlers?

[insaftak]

maiden, *** gayle

[lalaji]

good over from harby

[jusarrived]

if they are thinking of targeting Ojha , its a mistake imo ...its easier to hit Harbajan

[lalaji]

well i dont know whats happening...prob gayle is afraid of the indian bowlers?



or maybe he is afraid he will lose his IPL contract.....lol just kidding jusarrive...

[Inswinging Yorker]

44444444444444 for simmonds

[saqeeb90]

this is same scored that srilanka did agaisnt pak so i hope westindies don't do what pak did...

[hasanb]

4 from simmons badly needed by the windies!!

[Rizwan25]

any link guys?

[insaftak]

4444444444

[Inswinging Yorker]

booring kumble commentary again

[Inswinging Yorker]

gayle seems to have lost it

[insaftak]

dot ball again, gayle is not trying to hit, 7 straight dot balls for him

[hasanb]

simmons is actually looking more fluent than gayle at the moment, but you just never know when gayles going to just explode i guess...8 dot balls in a row for him so far though.

[insaftak]

8 straight dot balls

[jusarrived]

they have really bowled well to Gayle , superb length

[Inswinging Yorker]

gayle playing crap like misbah

[hasanb]

shot from simmons falls safely phew!!

[mustafa]

symonds is lucky

[Inswinging Yorker]

i suspect gayle might fail his timing is off

[insaftak]

they have really bowled well to Gayle , superb length

not really, he is just playing horribly

[insaftak]

pathan to continue

[jusarrived]

unlucky there ..but lendl batting on may not be such a bad thing for couple of overs ..wont give enuf time for the likes of sarwan & Chandra to settle down ...!

[lalaji]

not really, he is just playing horribly


lol so you dont wana give credit to indians?

[mustafa]

gayle bye bye

[Inswinging Yorker]

gayle gone as i said windies doomed now

[jusarrived]

not really, he is just playing horribly

ok :)

[lalaji]

and he is goneeeeeeeeee

[insaftak]

he is gone, gayle sucked today

[hasanb]

this might be a good thing for windies actually...gayle was totally stuck out there, but india right on top now difficult to see them losing this from here.

[lalaji]

gayle pull out a Misbah here...

lol he score 21 off 28....

[Bublu Bhuyan]

Yahoooooooooooooo !!

[whyhkk]

India will win this barring brilliance from someone.

[insaftak]

bravo in, need to go for big hits

[lalaji]

Yahoooooooooooooo !!


wow it took a wicket for you to come out of your hole...

see my thing is you support your team no matter what...i guess thats not the case for you

[Sparhawk]

Who needs Gayle when you have dwayne bravo? Hes gonna take WI home

[jusarrived]

Bravo is certainly capable of doing it for WI , they really have an awesome team WI !

[insaftak]

indians are in trouble

[Inswinging Yorker]

sweeetly timed for 4444444444444444444444444444444 by bravo

[insaftak]

indians are in trouble

you could choose one of them

[Inswinging Yorker]

44444444444444444444444 by bravo

[Bublu Bhuyan]

8.6 Ojha to Bravo, FOUR :pissed:

[checkers.llvllaster]

While India definitely has a strong team and their main bowlers have a lot of overs left, don't underestimate WI. They still have big hitters and there are some yet to come...

[Sparhawk]

Beautiful shot from Bravo

[CrickFan]

India are playing like a champion team ..even Harbhajan knows his role and delivers when the chips are down ..He can hit boundaries more easily than so called specialized pinch hitters in Pakistan ..Yuvi is the best player in this format ..period

[hasanb]

Sarwan, Chanderpaul and Ramdin are all good players of spin, while Bravo and Pollard are big hitters...plenty in the tank for the windies the key is to keep the run rate up and going!

[Bublu Bhuyan]

9.2 YK Pathan to Bravo, FOUR :6:

[jusarrived]

i hate singles

[insaftak]

they are not looking to hit anything

[Inswinging Yorker]

shot by simmonds for 444444444444444444444444444444

[insaftak]

44444444444444444444444444

[jusarrived]

good couple of overs for WI since Bravo has come in

[Inswinging Yorker]

game following a similar pattern as the first

[Sparhawk]

Bravo doesn't get enough credit for his all round abilities

[insaftak]

harbahjan in

[Inswinging Yorker]

shottttttttttttttt for 444444444444444444444444444444

[Sparhawk]

Laraesque shot by bravo there... beauty!

[lalaji]

4444444444 off haby

[insaftak]

what a shot!!!!!!

[On_the_up]

An Inzi 92 semi final type shot by Bravo. Lovely shot.

[Inswinging Yorker]

10 off that over

[hasanb]

very good running makes a two of a single, real important that!

[insaftak]

they need 9 runs per over

[jusarrived]

WI with momentum now

[On_the_up]

Bravo putting in a good all round performance here.

[insaftak]

zaheer in

[On_the_up]

ZK back

[lalaji]

WI with momentum now

[insaftak]

dot ball

[insaftak]

another dot ball

[Inswinging Yorker]

3 dot balls windies under pressure

[insaftak]

3 dot balls,

[insaftak]

wide

[Inswinging Yorker]

444444444444444444444444444444444 welcome runs for simmonds

[Sparhawk]

lendl simmons and bravo are both in the trinidad and tobago team so they've probably had many partnerships together

[Inswinging Yorker]

get bravo in strike

[insaftak]

4444444444

[insaftak]

rrr 9.68

[saeed-sohail]

[insaftak]

44444444444444, nine of the over

[insaftak]

57 of 36 balls

[insaftak]

runout missed

[Sparhawk]

Wicket! But bravos still there

[insaftak]

simmons gone

[hasanb]

100 - 3....very similar to pakistan

[saqeeb90]

lol i am watching same match again.............

[hasanb]

chanderpaul in...will he get stuck though, he needs to be aggressive singles arent enough

[Inswinging Yorker]

66666666666666666666666666666 by bravoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[tauseefm]

lol i am watching same match again.............

[Sparhawk]

666666666666666666666666

Glorious from Bravo

[insaftak]

66666666666

[CrickFan]

WI collapse in Progress .. India will win this easily

[insaftak]

[insaftak]

just short of the fielder

[insaftak]

45 of 30 balls

[Legendary_Sage]

A very good match......
WI fighting hard

[Sparhawk]

Why couldnt Misbah have done this against Jayasuriya?

[jusarrived]

need one tight over for India

[hasanb]

this all depends on how chanderpaul plays he needs to support bravo well

[insaftak]

44 of 29

[Legendary_Sage]

couple of fours and things will come down to normal

[insaftak]

43 of 28

[insaftak]

41 of 27

[Legendary_Sage]

lets hope two sixes and asking rate will come down dramatically

[Sparhawk]

Chanderpaul's approach should be interesting to see here

[jusarrived]

dot ball

[insaftak]

40 of 25

[Legendary_Sage]

Good over by bhajii
