India in the West Indies
- Thread starter Sachin_007
- Start date
Windies win by 4 wickets Sarwan hits the winning runs. Congrats to the Windies 2-1 up and deservely so. Great to see them somewhere near their best. I can see them taking the series here, they will have so much confidence and will want to main the wood over India in the Caribean.
What a match again!!!!
This series has not been good for many hearts!!!! Too thrilling for one's liking. But I dont think a flow of thrillers will spoil the fun of thrilling matches!
I feel like sitting close to a furnace now!!!!
Dravid Dravid Dravid!!! Messed it all up with a poor misfield in the 4th ball of the final over when he let Sarwan get two. Had Sarwan got a single, Baugh would have had to face the penultimate ball needing 3 runs to win and who knows, Baugh has never faced a pressure of this proportions!!!!!
but as many say, India lost it because of the last 15 overs of their batting. Awful batting collapse that was! Its going to be very tough for them to win this series from here! And if the Windies win the series, it will be a great achievement for them!!!!

Tense finish, but Sarwan and WI have broken through the barrier. They are favourites now, to win the series.
India will need to re-think the strategy. You dont want to shuffle your batting order too much, I still feel Dravid should come two down, behind Kaif and let Pathan or Raina open the innings. Let Dhoni stay where he's comfortable.

Superb win for the Windies again 
! They bowled really well after a good start for India, and the fielding was good. Kaif was unlucky to be run-out on 60 and Sewhag is back in form, meaning India can still win the series. Great innings by Sarwan though.

I dont think Dravid needs to come down from the opening slot. let him open. India need to send Kaif up now. He has two innings of 60 odd runs.. He can take the no.3 slot and score some quick singles, two's and can rotate the strike. Yuvraj will come back for the next game which should be a great boost for india. i dont think india will panic here. they were 2-1 down against pakistan in pakistan in 2004 and then came back to win two games on the trot to win the series.
Also having off days for both Powar and Pathan didnt help India's cause. But you cant do anything about that! It happens... But I was happy with the way India took the match to the penultimate ball... when it was 10 to win off 12 balls with c'paul and sarwan batting, i thought "ok, this match is over". but was happy with the way india induced some pressure into sarwan and the windies team.
