India in the West Indies

Looks like another stale dull boring draw. I dont see India fluffing it up here (yeah of course, anything can happen)...

Despite Lara's pleas, what is being done? Atkinson cant change the pitch so much in so less time. And with the weather intervening, its a hazardous job. The board (WICB) should take blame for the poor quality of the pitches offered so far!
 
Hmmm, Munaf being smacked for 25 runs in an over. Funny to hear the commentators (two West Indians, of course) going crazy about Sarwan's greatness, when three of them were underedged, and hence not controlled.

Lol - you obviously don't listen to Indian commentary that much.

lol, atleast its not very biased.

Not that Sarwan is a good batsman (may be a future great), but its a bit annoying when commentators (from anywhere) exaggerate a bit too much.

WI certainly on top here, 362/3 and they are certain to cross the 550 run mark.

Yes, really boring!

I expect Windies to score around 550 & India getting around 600, not much interesting!
 
Its getting gloomy out there, this is turning out to be a nightmare again for both teams.

WI still on top despite some close calls and edges. India will need quick wickets.
 
If not for this forum, I would not have even known that the test match is underway and is going on between India and the Windies!
 
The weather has killed this match, the Windies only on 400 after two days. Definitely agree they'll go for 600 and then try to bowl India out twice in 2 days which isn't likely.
 
The series is all going to come down to the next match in Kingston, Jamaica. The pitch over there isn't normally flat and should produce a result.

Sad if a series is reduced to one game, like what happened in Pakistan.

Well, let's hope that we get a better result than that last match of the Ind-Pak test series, which we surely should! :)

They shouldnt even be thinking of bowling India out even once! They will be over optimistic if they think like that!

Thats how it happens! Like how viral said, lets hope the result is better this time than that in Pakistan!

Jamaica will surely produce a result! I am confident abt that!

Well, whatever happens, India's rating points are on a downward trail.

Yes, that is really cruel by the Rankings! A 3-0 or more is what India needed to avoid negative points, which is pretty strange!

Match : Windies are not playing quickly, so it doesn't seem that they will declare quickly! It seems that even they are sure of a draw here! ;)
