    Cant wait to get home

    I hope it will be a good game

    I hope pakistan will win.

    I know w indies hold the punch in their middle order

    thats something to look at plus last 15 overs will be crucial


    see how game unfolds i would say Pakistan has the edge over windies just need be patient and utilize all opertunities


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,425 ✭✭✭digitally-yours


    I think Pakistan needs a wicket before the partnership reaches 50

    one the partnership builds it will be difficult for pakistan to handle.

    My god Chanderpaul is scoring slowly here. Strike rate of about 33.

    I think its fine so far they are going according to game plan

    The idea is to get used to the wicket and then accelerate

    cant wait to see the reverse swings !!! in the last overs !!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,656 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    I know how one day cricket is played but a strike rate of 33 is just taking the piss...


    And as I say that he's gone. New batsman comes in and has to get used to the wicket himself and Chanderpaul has faced almost 60 balls for 19.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,230 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Sarwan gone for 49

    79-3


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,800 ✭✭✭county


    77-3


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,425 ✭✭✭digitally-yours


    Now Brian Lara

    he is the Majic bullet !!!

    If he sticks then pakistan are in for a major trouble !!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,601 ✭✭✭Marshy


    Sensing another implosion here by the windies.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,800 ✭✭✭county


    Now Brian Lara

    he is the Majic bullet !!!

    If he sticks then pakistan are in for a major trouble !!!
    if lara gets out early the windies are in the sh1t big time

    I agree but he is the most mature batsman in their side and this man knows how to handle pressure !!

    i would term his situation as "last man standing"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,425 ✭✭✭digitally-yours


    can some one tell please whats the Projected score for w indies in 50 overs given the speed they are going at ?

    101 after 30 overs = 3.367 runs per over

    In 50 overs gives 168 runs.

    Edit: Go on Samuels you good thing!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,656 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    Samuels really going after Kaneira. Wrong stage of the innings to be playing these kind of shots but very entertaining nonetheless

    Let's hope that the Windies can consolidate with the current partnership and get the score up to a competitive 230 or so.

    We wouldn't want a batting collapse by the Windies to open the CWC :rolleyes:

    Edit: They'd need to bat at 6 an over for the next 18.3 overs to get that... here's hoping.
