Ricardo Powell weaves dream spell
Nz began their innings after tean and both Sinclair and Mcmillan played very well. Mcmillan reached a well compiled aggressive fifty and really was responsible for keeping the WI at bay.
But Lara introduced Powell for a change to bowl his off spin and everything started changing.
Mcmillan was unlucky as a full blooded sweep hit the shot leg fielder and and balloned in air to be caught by baugh. Ricardo Powell breakks the crucial partnership.
Styris was promoted up the order ahead of Man in form Cairns and he too didnt stay that long.
If mcmillan was unlucky then styris was unluckiest underedging the ball on to the stumps.
Cairns joined Sinclair in the crease, while all this were going on Sinclair moved quietly to 86.

Sinclair played really a well organized innings until he played this ugly shot of bradshaw.
Cairns was joined by Mccullum and both started the partnership that i thought would be crucial. But Fiedel Edwards had other ideas as he produced one of the delivery that moved away from Cairns.
Vettori one of few lower order players in the who u can depend for scoring lots of runs but he really miss judged a delivery from powell and was bowled.
Mccullum was there and i had hopes in him that he would do something and he wasout lbw to powell. But he was shocked by the decision.
Powell then cleaned of the bowlers to finish with 5 wickets. Indeed a great dream spell by Powell that really gave WI a valuable lead of 81 runs. WI well and truly on top here at Queens Park Oval.

Powell who joined C'paul after laras exit hit a good 4 but didnt last long he edged one to sinclair at slips of tuffey.
Bravo who came in next edged one from cairns to wk
Really WI innings in shatter with only c'paul and jacobs the last recognized pair who can take WI to safety
They did the same as both played aggressive cricket hitting 4's and even going over the top with ease.
Wi just escaped from a disastrous 94-6 thanks to their partnership

The parnership was worth 48 before Jacobs edged one from cairns to slips.
Lawson joined Chanderpaul, but a terrific mixup between these two saw lawson sacrificing his wicket.
Bradshaw comes in and drives a 4 and soon misses one from cairns. Cairns on fire man picks up 5 wkts.
Mean while chanderpaul compiled his half century. A truly crucial one. Edwards is giving him company.
