South African Tour of the West Indies, May-June 2010

Once again Pollard is in when the top order has collapsed and 68 of 34 is required and he will go for a wild swing to try and up the run rate and he will be called a fail.

I agree with your view on that. He did a decent job yesterday despite his batting position, but if West Indies want a match winning performance from him, they better push him up the order.
 
Gayle has to be more confident using his medium pacers on dodgy tracks. He actually has one of the more interesting bowling attacks going around. Batting is another story.

Still, South Africa's batsmen were probably a bit lucky that the bowlers had their backs after flopping 4/25 in those last four overs. They got rid of Boucher and Gibbs, but why Duminy is still there, I don't know.

JP is still young. Gibbs and bouch are on their way out. Both will likely retire at wc 2011, if they make it that far. Bouch amy stick around for the test side for a bit but odi and t20 he will be done with after wc 2011.

I don't think JP will play all the games. They will give david miller a chance.

Miller should play, he adds a different option. A fearless approach to the game which SA need badly atm.
 
Anyone catch Holdings comments about Pollard? Hilarious and spot on, Holding speaks the truth, just like when everyone was licking Stanfords ass and Holding said that Stanford should be avoided.

Just bet 20 bucks on the Saffas, come on guys!

Holding as much as I admire him and respect him, he is the last person that should make any kind of comment relating to West Indies players!! What Holding is not saying regarding Stanford was personal, we all down here knows about it!! And as for our players, he should probably come out and say how much help he has offered to West Indies cricket especially our bowlers!!!
 
Bosman out the same way as yesterday.

Dare added 17 Minutes and 8 Seconds later...

Holding did commentary yesterday? I thought it was Kozier, Bishop, Dujon and Mohammed that did the commentary.
 
Wow is quick today, damn!!! Oh sorry Cricinfo is showing Benn bowling at 90+ mph, Lard have mercy!!
In 7 overs we have already used 4 bowlers!!! Gayle what are you up too??
 
West Indies bowlers testing Duminys ability to play the short ball. All he has seen was chest high and up.

He made the comments on cricinfo in the Quote section.

"Pollard in my opinion, is not a cricketer"

As much as I like Holding he can keep that opinion to him self. Like Rabs said there have been many former WI players that took up positions with the team after their retirements and tried to help the team. Holding wasn't one of those, maybe he can try and help the young Jamaican fast bowlers, all of them give credit to Walsh in the interviews.


Fletcher s keeping has been good during this 20/20 and yesterday.

South Africa run out of funding? All the numbers on the back of their jerseys are falling of.
 
Why is South Africa Playing So Slowly?

Although The Pitch Is Slow but this is really shameful T20 Performance Again.

Why are they not going out all guns blazing...

My point exactly, I wonder if anyone remembers a guy named Jermaine Lawson, or even more recently Daren Powell!!! Ambrose has offered, Kenny Benjamine was even employed to move around the Region to work with bowlers in Primary & Secondary Schools, so to was Reon King, so ask Michael Holding, apart from sitting on SkySports and in the UK criticizing West Indies, what the hell have he done to help us!!
