1st Test: West Indies v Australia at Roseau on Jun 3-7, 2015

[hineyrulz]

:lol: terrible shot by Blackwood, and Hads fumbles it but still gets the stumping.

Not sure who will be more upset Blackwood or Red Bear????

 

[hineyrulz]

Now Samuel's throws away his innings, Windies now 6 down and lead 28.

 

[hineyrulz]

Lyon gets another, pretty poor shot by the captain.

7 down and we take the new ball.

 

[hineyrulz]

Quality first pill by Starc, Windies 8 down.

 

[8Ball]

Somewhat predictably..WI collapse after the partnership.

 

[hineyrulz]

Missing leg by the looks.

 

[hineyrulz]

Too good for a tail ender that one.

 

[8Ball]

Starc vs Gabriel. Big mismatch that one..

 

[hineyrulz]

They lost 6 for 27 that session alone.

Take out that partnership and it was another really pathetic display.


Haze was superb again and Starcy did a good job mopping up the tail.

 

[TheParraboy]

3/181 to all out 216

Aust need 47 to win

 

[hineyrulz]

Gee Warners quick, looked in trouble there but home easy.


And he starts off with a 4.

 

[hineyrulz]

10 off 2 :lol:

 

[hineyrulz]

Gee this bloke is a massive plodder.

 

[hineyrulz]

Silly by Davey.

 

[hineyrulz]

Smiffy finishes it off, 9 wicket win.


Looked unlikely a win today just before tea.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Oh yay I can't wait for the Boxing Day and New Years Tests :sarcasm:

Australia should be playing a 5 test series against NZ and the hapless Windies should be dropped down to a tier-2 test nation.

Another reason my love for Test cricket is dwindling is the ridiculous scheduling. The Kiwis are easily one of the top 3 test nations right now, and they also play entertaining cricket.

And what's their reward and ours as viewers? 2 test series every now and then. It's a joke. f**k the ICC and money grabbing CA, ECB, BCCI... all are almost as bad as FIFA.

Rant over.

 

[Twizzle]

you forgot to, mention the poms being shit might have something to do with your dwindling interest Tommy

 

[Twizzle]

Well Starc could have just made it pretty hard for Harry and an interesting call to give him the new ball, he surely must be figuring in their thinking, personally I would have given Haze the ball at the other end as Notch seems to prefer the older ball

Lyon still getting belted by a below average teams, I wonder if the leggie should get a run in the next test, gotta be worth a try. I find in puzzling how we continue to reward his mediocrity.

 

[Tommy Smith]

The same reason Haddin's mediocrity is overlooked. They're both key members of the Boy's Club.

I am now an honorary Kiwi until Cook, Strauss, Broad and those ECB muppets that could care less about winning are removed.
