Is Clarke playing? Thought he was injured.

 

[Sedition]

Michael Clarke's left hamstring injury is believed to be serious enough to rule him out of the entire limited-overs portion of Australia's looming West Indies tour.

The wording doesn't exactly say he won't play a game, but then I doubt they'll rush him back a second time, so he isn't anywhere near my team.

This one says Watson will captain the five ODI's, so I doubt Clarke will play. I can't find anything official though unfortunately.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I've included Carlton Baugh, since Ramdin is injured. Replace him if you got him in your team.

[ZexyZahid]

I've included Peter Nevill, since Haddin has gone home. He might return for the Test series.

'Haddin is now on his way back from the West Indies to be with his pregnant wife Karina, their son Zac and daughter Mia.'

[ZexyZahid]

I am regretting now that I changed Russell for Dwayne Bravo. Also I changed Sammy for Pollard. One of the few West Indians I have in my team.

^ Thank you!

I need Bishoo or Pattinson, to get a game. I didn't expect Narine to go as well as he has.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Haddin will surely not feature in this tour.

A big surprise that the 3rd ODI ended in a tie. West Indies are performing better then I expected.

Good thing that Pollard and Russell made some runs, but I'll be needing more then that.

 

[Sedition]

Double checked the first three ODIs, pretty much everything looks good. There was a mistake by cricinfo on the scorecard in the 2nd ODI though. It shows Christian run out (Narine/Baugh), but the commentary shows Narine is the bowler and Roach the fielder.

33.4
Narine to DJ Hussey, OUT, Christian's been run out! Hussey worked the ball towards square and set off, then hesitated a little, and set off again. Roach was quick to reach the ball from short fine leg and threw to the keeper, who broke the stumps with Christian well out of his ground

Found a highlights video and it can be seen as Roach doing the fielding.. therefore I have updated that

 

[ZexyZahid]

I see Pollard made a 70 ball century. Of the people above me only swirler and jibranpatel15 have him in their teams.

But Sammy scored 31 runs and has taken two wickets already, so that negates his innings.

Good thing is that Dwayne Bravo got a duck.

Pretty surprised that I'm in the top 3 considering I only have 3 WI players. Only a handful of points in it though all the way down to 11th.
