Story West Indies Tour of Australia (C2005)

[ZoraxDoom]

I would just like to remind everyone that this is the final game of this thread. I cut it down from 6 ODI's to 4. It is getting a little tedious and I'm dying to start a new thread soon

Will Australia be involved? Cause I am sure most of us would love an India-Aussie series

UPDATE: AUSSIES RACH REASONABLE TOTAL

The Australians have posted a total of 10/249 in just 40 overs. Some late hitting from Lee and Hussey helped them get to around the 250 mark. SImon Katich top scored with 70 while Hussey, Clarke and Lee made 34 each. The Windie's must now face the tough task of batting on this seamers wicket...

UPDATE: 10 OVERS

The West Indians have made a horrible start to their innings by loosing most of their top order in quick succession. The pitch is deteriorating rapidly and the strain is plainly showing on Shiv Chanderpauls face as he watches the game. Gayle was the first man out, He edged to Ricky Ponting at 1st slip as did Chanderpaul. Lara was then bowled for just 3 after he tried to hit Lee over mid wicket. The Windies are now looking desperately for a partnership to hold agains the Aussies...

D.Ramdin 14*
R.Sarwan 2*
WIN: 3/22
RR: 2.2
West Indies require 228 runs
7 wickets in hand

G.McGrath 2/12 (5)
B.Lee 1/10 (5)

UPDATE: WINDIES ANNIHILATED

The West Indians have suffered their biggest defeat of the series at the hands of Australia. The Windies couldn't cope with the movement off the pitch and were eventually all out for 58. Ramdin was the only player who had even a sniff off runs. The Windies now leave Australia as a brusied and battered team. There were personal highlights and to an extent team highlights but overall this series has been a big dissapointment. The Australians then did something quite remarkable, they ran around the ground and thanked the crowd for their support which never stopped coming for the home team. This showed just how much these victories ment to the team. The Player of the Series trophy was presented to Brett Lee who hs silenced critics over the last few years with outstanding bowling...

BRETT LEE PRESENTED WITH AWARD

How about NZ in Australia, or vice versa. Anyway, another poor batting display by the Windies, no spirit throughout the whole tour. Great story

 

[Cricket_60]

A NZ tour is definitely worth thinking about...

I'm currently thinking of Aus V India as a test series but I will gladly har any other ideas...
