windies in a mess like always. but as long as lara is there they still have some hope

israr · #4 November 11, 2006, 02:00 PM

Fastidious performance by WI after day 1.

Xavier · #5 November 11, 2006, 06:24 PM

With Umar Gul taking 5 wickets and Shahid Nazir taking 3 Pakistan really didn't suffer for the absence of Akhtar and Asif!

CricFanBD · #6 November 12, 2006, 12:11 AM

Somehow they seem to be coping up without Asif. Akhter was a good for nothing...no good line and length.

Yeah, may be...only One person can save this match...Lara...see what happens.

Sovik · #11 November 13, 2006, 08:22 AM

windies has a lot to do. lara alone will not able to save the match. chanderpaul, bravo and ramdin will have to perform

Tigers_eye · #12 November 13, 2006, 01:13 PM

innings defeat against a side who don't have their top attack. We can take on both of them. Matter of time till we become #6. When does Lara, Inzi and Yousuf retire??

Alien · #13 November 14, 2006, 03:03 AM

Lara is putting up a fight. This Lara-Chanderpaul partnership is very crucial for Windies to draw the game. The longer they hold on, the better chance they got.

I doubt others can hold out there much longer. Definitely not one whole day.
Winning is out of question.

Yes true. Asif was just another beginner, Pakistan has tonnes of players like him. There is nothing awesome about Asif.

As for Shoaib Akhtar he was a goner ages ago.

cricman · #15 November 14, 2006, 03:57 AM

Lara gone on 122 Pakistan all but have the match won. Chanderpaul is suffering from dehydration so i think WI should just try to bat another 20 ovs get and try not to lose a wicket and then go out an blitz to set pak a target

Sovik · #16 November 14, 2006, 08:30 AM

another century in vain.

Sovik · #17 November 14, 2006, 08:45 AM

from cricinfo

"A disgruntled few will also say, with some justification, one umpire deserved the award. Asoka de Silva's comeback wasn't memorable, almost all his poor decisions went against West Indies and mostly at crucial junctures. And that kind of support, when you're Brian Lara, you can do without."

Tigers_eye · #18 November 14, 2006, 02:51 PM

Didn't I read some where in this forum something on this line that alone in this test Lara got two lives because of Ashoka? One decision favoring the best player should be counted as two for that team. That puts 4 decisions in favor of WI.

Sovik · #19 November 20, 2006, 09:24 AM

windies is going strong in this match. 151 for no loss

Hatebreed · #20 November 20, 2006, 10:29 AM

Great start by WI, this should be an interesting fight.

Sovik · #21 November 20, 2006, 10:58 AM

i wanted to edit the title of the thread to windies in pakistan. but couldn't

Tigers_eye · #22 November 20, 2006, 03:21 PM

Titles of thread are strictly maintained. One can change the Title heading within the certain time of opening his thread. Then only the Mods can do that.

WI can collapse faster than a tasher ghor. I am not taking anything for granted untill they cross Pakistan's total. Good to see Gayle playing conservatively and maintaining a strick rate of 60+. Speaking of strick rate did anyone notice Abdur Razzaq's batting? Is it hard for any batsman to bat ODIs at a 100+ rate and play test at a 15+ rate?

Lara on the verge of his 34th 100 :

Quote:

End of over 84 (26 runs) - West Indies 281/2

BC Lara		92* (63b 12x4 5x6)		Danish Kaneria		30-2-130-2
RS Morton		5* (9b 1x4)		Umar Gul		23-11-40-0

26 runs off the over and Lara has moved into the 90's off just 63 balls

83.6

Danish Kaneria to Lara, FOUR, Boundary to end the over! full toss, Lara steps out and puts it away over the mid-wicket fielder

83.5

Danish Kaneria to Lara, SIX, Hat-trick of sixes! length ball and Lara steps out yet again and this time straight over the sight-screen, this is even bigger than the previous one, Lara is on a roll and this is really a treat to watch

83.4

Danish Kaneria to Lara, SIX, One more and this is high- Lara charges down the track and lofts it away high over the long-on fence, this is a massive hit and Lara is on a high

83.3

Danish Kaneria to Lara, SIX, short ball outside leg stump, Lara rocks back and pulls it away high and over mid-wicket fence

83.2

Danish Kaneria to Lara, no run

83.1

Danish Kaneria to Lara, FOUR, flat on the stumps, Lara steps out and lofts it straight down the ground, one bounce into the fence

Long-on and a long-off in place
