West Indies Tour of Australia 2010

Probably over. Galye's out so not much fun to watch anymore :( West Indies just can;t cope with all the injuries in the batting it seems.
 
WI at full strength arent anything special anyway. I dont know why they are ever being hyped up, they are actually a lot worse than Pakistan! They are a one man team- Gayle, thats it. If he fails they all fail.
 
Gayle isn't their best player, if they had Shiv, Sarwan (both better batsmen btw), Bravo, Taylor, Edwards....then they might be a little competitive.
 
They need to just set it up for the big hitters. Maybe get it to 140 of the last twenty, with 6 wickets in hand. That shouldn't be too hard, if they play sensibly.
 
Bollinger seems to have a knack for getting out Gayle, he got him a few times in the Test series and now here.
 
I think the West Indies will improve from here over the next few years, no matter what happens this team has exceeded expectations, pushed Australia all the way in the tests unfortunately this side more resembles the club side that they picked that lost to Bangladesh due to injuries.

Kemar Roach is an outstanding prospect as well, what a fast bowler this kid may turn out to be.
 
Well spotted TG, that wide from Johnson was actually a legit appeal by the keeper. Tough to give that though and for once Johnson doesn't have the luck.
 
Pollard- HUGE FAIL. That was typical of the lower rung test nation's players- no patience and just idiotic brain explosions regularly. That shot was 100% not called for, bunt it around for another 10 overs and then try, but I guess he isnt used to batting in the 25th over in a match, 20/20 mindset.
 
He isnt that great. He isnt a what you call a good 'cricket player'. He is a slogger, and T20 making players like him look better, overrating them. Few years ago, he wouldnt have made the XI. Thanks to T20 :)
 
Harris is one wicket taking machine, hasn't gone a match without a 3 fer since his return.
WI bowlers did the job but the batsmen totally stuffed up a gettable total.
 
can Gayle win the other 4 matches? why did he have say 4-1? should have said 3-2. now he has to hit 4 tons.
