Mar 17 : England vs West Indies

[Themer]

Bit of an unfair situation to throw Tredwell to, like him or loathe him. 58/0 and racing, no win situation for him unless he happens to take wickets which I doubt.

I'm happy to say. WRONG. Wasn't expecting him to bowl this well though and its good to see that they have finally started to use Bopara as a bowler a bit more. (he has 124 wickets at 26 in domestic OD)

the windies probably have too many bashers, the mad way they started means run rate isn't an issue but beyond sarwan, who is else is able to score a nice safe, paced 50?

cause it aint kieron pollard. mind you, you wouldn't want him coming in with 30-40 runs to get, one bad bowling change it could be match over.

Yeah true actually i knew it seriously

Thomas lost the golden opportunity to prove himself as batsman, Pollard-Sarwan the last recognized batting pair can only save WI now from defeat.

 

[Meet]

All hopes on Sarwan, if he departs then its all over.

 

[StinkyBoHoon]

bangladesh might feel a bit cheesed off, it really looks like the windies batsmen couldn't give a toss.

Suddenly england has discovered BOPARA, the bowler.

I would like to see now how Bopara bowls against Pollard.

Bopara is skidding in pretty nicely!! 4 back to back maidens now!! Pressure on Windeies!!

Not 4 maidens dude, Bopara bowling so far pretty nice though.

4-2-4-2

 

[Harshshah]

Yes that 2 maidens plus Tremlets 2 maiden

----------

11 runs in the last 5 overs of 2nd bowling power play

They weren't back to back though.

How many overs do you want in Bowling Powerplay?

 

[Sureshot]

You feel this partnership will decide the match. If these two get WI to within 50 of the target, then you'd favour WIndies.

Oh yeah.

2nd batting PP yielded just 11 runs for 1 wicket.

 

[Sureshot]

Bopara drops it, not easy, but should have taken it. Still think we'll get a chance again soon.
