West Indies tour of Pakistan

[angryangy]

So anyone changing their bets on this one yet? I think the West Indies are more than half a chance right now.

 

[Inbox24]

Way more than a half chance. One of best series i reckon second only to the ashes. Gayle is blowing the world away, couple that with Lara, Chanders, Bravo and Sarwan etc vs Inzy, Youhana, adn Younis Khan who r extremely solid and you've got two very evenly matched batting lineups. should be a tight tussle.

 

[Gunner786]

even with shoaib and asif out i think pakistan will win this series

pakistan still have very good bowlers in danish kaneria,gul and razzaq

Dont expect pakistan to lose this series with their batting line up though and windies bowling line up

on the tracks of asia danish can do what he did against windies in the 2nd time alot more

 

[Recluse]

Anyone know if the series is going to be broadcast on Sky Sports at all?

Anyone know if the series is going to be broadcast on Sky Sports at all?

Not on the TV listings, so it looks unlikely. Apart from the Ashes, Sky Sports has South Africa v India and New Zealand v Sri Lanka out of forthcoming series.

how about on ARY do you think they will have it

 

[nightprowler10]

Damn DISHNetwork! They're offering the whole tour for $50! How am I not supposed to buy it? There goes my school.

 

[zub2005]

yeah it is coming on ARY in the uk checked the tv listings on the net

 

[Dare]

so lets see if any of our predictions were correct, full squad Windies vs bowling depleted pakistanis.

 

[nightprowler10]

West Indies 46/3.

Gul got rewarded despite being all over the place, and Gayle's lbw was dodgy. Really the only wicket we got so far that we deserved was Sarwan.

ARY have it, im watching it on the internet.

that asoka dasilva is the worst umpire ive ever seen!

"ashocker" dasilva more like.

Gayle wasnt even close to being out, ball just pitched on leg and struck him on the top of the flap, there goes the most exciting batter in world cricket

Yuod think that umpires would be more diligent than that at this level, a terrible decision.

Then, Lara is lbw plumb not given out by the same umpire!!??

2 wrong decisions in one over, welcome back to test match cricket ashocker dasilva.


now the windies have slumped to 46/3 funny how a bad umpire can ruin a great game.

omg ashocker gives another marginal lbw lol what is this guy on???? paid by the wicket??

56/4 that was sliding past offstump...what happened to the umpire being sure the batsmen was out??? benefit of the doubt is gone. Well all i can say is ashocker is a bowlers dream!

PS im impartial to who wins. I just loathe poor decisions ruining the game

 

[nightprowler10]

Yeah that Chanderpaul decision wasn't a very good one. Seems like he gave the benefit of the doubt to the bowler. Maybe Asoka is the reason they're not using Hawkeye, they don't wanna embarass him.

 

[Octavius]

ah well, come on lara, make a game of it! at least simon taufel might balance ashocker dasilva out a bit. Ironically i think ashocker has replaced darryl hair.

 

[puddleduck]

Funny that Octavius, two very different umpires by the looks of things. Hair is very much a not-out man. Unless he is sure about an LBW he generally says not-out, and correctly gives the benefit of the doubt to the batsman. Whilst daSilva seems a bit of a trigger man.

I know who I'd prefer... *lights firework and stands back*

 

[Octavius]

bravo couldnt resist driving the fully flighted Kaneria thru the off and its 96 for 5 just prior to lunch

wow where was this Kaneria in England?
