Story West Indies International Season: (Current - SA tour of WI)

[The Champ]

i think the fact that the lower order and tail is exposed is the biggest problem. lara is that good that he can change the match but if bravo goes early it could be over very soon. prove me wrong champ

Ya that is the biggest problem mate the tail should wag around, before that Bravo should do well, the problem is the new exe is really swingingg late and i lost sarwan to a manificant late swing. Anyway i hope i will still make 250 as Vaughan said. hope for the best

the new exe makes it very tough. i think it makes it better because the stories can be more acurate. i dont know how but in my current match clarke is playing cairns, tuffy etc very well but the others really struggled. its only when its pitched up full that you can have a good go driving at it.
best of luck with the rest of the match

At the every thing rests on Lara 's shoulder so far he has looked very composed and confident.

WI BOWLED OUT FOR 168- TARGET FOR KIWIS 173.


Well Vettori took 4 wkts as WI collapsed to 168 all out just before stups on day 3 iving the visitors 173 runs to win the series .

Well Bravo was the next wkt to go bowled by Astle.

Well the only point to cheer for the WI supporters were when Lara reached his fifty.

 

[The Champ]

Daniel Vettori was the pick of the bowlers as he cleaned up lara with a lovely delivery as shown.

And he also removed Lawson Baugh.

173 isnt alot of runs for a decent batting lineup. best of luck trying to bowl them out. an awful innings from the windies. someone had to stay with the prince

 

[The Champ]

Finally Tuffey joined the party to remove the last wicket and WI have been bowled out for 168.

WI bowled out for 168, NZ need 173 to win match and series.

TONY COZIER:

Well its been horrendous batting performance by the WI and shame they have been bowled out for a meagre 168 on a good batting wicket.

MARTIN CROWE:

Well the credit should go to the NZ bowlers for their line and length bowling and mainly within the stumps.

TONY COZIER:

Well here is the scorecard of the innings.

Well meaning ful contribution from Lara and Gayle and nothing other than is really worth mentioning.

NZ have resumed their innings and or 0-0 at stumps day3, Still they need 173 runs to win match and series

This test match should see an ending tomorrow by tea itself!!

I favor New Zealand to win this test match!!!

Why cant we have Vbookie events on test matches in the story threads? This would make story threads more interesting. We can request the moderators for allotting vbookie threads for stories and they can allot it based on the popularity of the stories invovled.

 

[m_vaughan]

Yup me too.

Vettori bowled very well for NZ. The series seems to be over for the WI.

Change of captain expected if WI lose this match. (very likely now).

Great point Sai but i would not wish to see anyone lose unnecessary pts in vbookie, anyway great point

But i think WI have done well though other than few sessions and will be harsh to remove Lara from captaincy.

WI needs a miracle to save this one
