^ya their fielding has been so poor. A lot of talent in this team but sadly they lack discipline

Watling has been a great find for NZ btw. Really like him a lot. He's a gutsy player who is always ready for a fight

With more than two and a half days left and only 6 more wickets to take, rain won't cut it, they'll need a hurricane to save them

WI getting exposed on pitches with movement. Proves once again that they are still far away from the likes of SA, India, Aus and Eng and closer with the likes of NZ, SL, BD and Zim.

And it's all over...WI lose by an innings and 73 runs...they're getting into the habit of losing within 3 days...not classy

WI rely to much on chanderpaul, gayle and bravo for the batting and roach for the bowling. edwards is decent, on the right track but needs to develop, they need to get some of the younger pacers into the team asap imo, i just haven't seen enough from the others to really push them, give cotterrall a few more chances but i think gabriel should make way for someone.

Gayle has done more damage to WI in recent times than good. Gayle is now injured but will be fit again before IPL along with Pollard.

It's more of a mental thing for the Windies. When the going has been tough they haven't responded. As their coach said, it's time to man up.

good ol' chanders standing tall. most won't consider him an all time great but i sure will. how can he not be? he's 7th on the career test runs list and only has 4 more runs to get to pass border and be #6. he's 12th on the list and only 6 runs off equally bradman as the 11th for most tons in a test career.
now that doesn't mean he'll make a WI all time test team but i don't think a player should have to make it into the top 6 batsmen their country has ever produced to be considered an all time great because if that's the case you can only ever have 6 great batsman and i think it's ridiculous to limit it to that, if they're good enough then they're good enough.

Congrats to Shiv for getting his 29th ton. And yes Gowza he's certainly an all time great. 6th all time in Test runs as you say. You have to admire the guy's knack for scoring runs despite playing with a struggling WI team. One of my favorite players without a doubt.
