His wickets were more because of the generosity from the West Indies batsmen! He was in his recent usual self - wayward! He needs to get into a good rhythm. Lets see if these two warm up matches give him that sort of rhythm where he is dangerous. I highly doubt so. And with spin being the trick of the tournament, I dont see Pathan playing too many matches!
India played much better than their Netherlands game, against West Indies. But they were denied a far better workout due to the shambolic display by the West Indians. Didnt expect them to get rolled over this easily. And they beat us 4-1 in the same country that they played this game!
By the way, the news before the game that Ganguly injured his ankle almost put me into deep depression. I cant believe people can spread rumors like this. It all comes with success yaar!
