West Indies tour of Australia, November-December 2009

[Dutch]

Perfect start for the West Indies. Is it an omen?? Over to one Chris Gayle............................

 

[MUFC1987]

That's some skills to miss his stumps then.

Lucky Gayle is so cool under pressure, another player might have kicked that onto his stumps.

 

[Cricketdude]

We need an early wicket. We can't let it go 0/120 or whatever like last time.

 

[Dutch]

This is going to be a real test of character for the West Indies. It is within their grasp but some players are going to have to come to the party, not just Gayle!

We are going to lose this IMO.

We are going to lose this IMO.

Mmmm, still a long way to go though. Lots of twists and turns yet!

 

[TumTum]

Nope, luck will be against us like last year and we'll lose it.

Well Im proud of the team for fighting back. After Australia put up that big score and bowled the WI for 300+ I didn't expect them to do this well with the ball in the 2nd innings. When Australia were in the Caribbean same thing happened in the last test I think but Chanderpaul fell for 11 (I think) in the chase and the team got bowled out for a low score. Lets hope it doesn't happen and the West Indies win this last test.

Just looking at the scores. Has there ever been such a difference in two separate innings??!?!?!? Innings one: 520 for 7 declared. Innings two: 150 all out!!!! That must be pretty unique!

I agree. A real poke in the eye for those who say the West indies are lazy and can't be bothered anymore!!

 

[Dare]

Actually it was in the 1st test when Australia were in the Caribbean. They made 431 in their 1st innings and got bowled out for 167 in their 2nd.

 

[aussie1st]

Looks like we are in big trouble. Johnson and Hauritz look to have some bug.

 

[rahuldravidfan]

C'mon Windies. This is your game for the taking now.

Ahaha Tony Creig is waiting till the cracks to open up before he grabs his keys he lost down there long time ago.

Umm... who?

I thought luck was meant to go against us

come on Dowlin, you don't do that when there is plenty of time to score the runs required.

Ronnie this is where you make your name.
