Australia tour of West Indies

[WestIndian]

I take it that Mr WestIndian does not feel embarrassed for something that isn't his fault, he just cares about how well his country is going!

You damn right I am. Let the ICC and WICB deal with the ground staff issue, 3rd down in 10, am LOVING IT.

Man what is your point?? Are you saying it is the ground staff that is the cause of the 2 wickets down??? Is that where you trying to get with this?? Man when you have Watson and Marsh back in the dressing room, inside of 5 overs in an ODI that is something to be happy about, for me as a West Indian, and if you are upset, then I expect you to be, but give me a break and piss off.

You sir, are an idiot I hate to say. I?m not blaming the ground staff for the wickets you fool (even though I could have a case if I wanted too). All I?m saying is you shouldn?t be that happy, because you lot are showing yet again what a joke the game of cricket has become in your country. And what a shame it is too.

Powell moving the ball well and getting good bounce I just hope that Bravo and Sammy can back him and Taylor when they come in to bowl.

Far out that ball is seaming. The windies bowlers are causing us some trouble.

Agreed. They used to be the powerhouse of cricket now it seems like they have never hosted a ODI before

 

[WestIndian]

He's saying arent you embarresed that your cricket team couldn't get something as simple as the sightscreens right. It seemed like they've never played cricket before. Burmuda could do better then this. Its really pathetic that they fix up the sightscreen 10 minutes before the game.

Bro please lets not get haste and take this out of context!! You saying if our cricket team could not get the sightscreens right?? Since when did it became the job of "the cricket team" to get sightscreen right???
What BS is that??

How the mighty have fallen. This is probably as good as it gets for you lot nowadays.

It's all related. The staff, officals, players. There all part of the team.

25 balls since last run

How is it even the ground staffs fault that the motor in the site screen stopped working? These things happen, there's no need to attack the whole of West Indies cricket just because of a problem with a sightscreen.

 

[Dare]

still plenty of overs to go for Australia to get a good score. We need to get one of the 2 at the crease and the trouble should start, they aren't scoring and should be getting frustrated.

 

[angryangy]

I blame the ground staff for everything.

there's definitely something in the pitch.

it's funny how people talk about swing bowling as if it is crucial; today swing is nowhere to be found, but look how effective just hitting the seam off a good length is.

Because they only put on the advertisement for the sightscreen when the toss was happening and they have had 6 months since this game was scheduled.

while I agree that the sight screen stuff is a problem, the ground staff obviously didn't put the advertisement by their own will. They were probably ordered by WICB or Digicel.

 

[Cricketman]

You've got to just accept that these countries are still in the developing process, and you can't expect perfection every time.

Agreed.

Anyways, I'm off to bed to listen to the game for a bit. Enjoy the rest of the game, fellas.
