4th ODI | India v West Indies | October 17, 2014 | Dharamsala

[battler]

West Indies win the toss and elect to bowl first.
Akshar patel comes in place of Mishra and Jason holder comes in place of Rampaul.

 

[samplepiece]

No Mishra, no Kuldeep. Dhoni relying on darters.

VVS Laxman - Was considered a Test specialist , played in pre T-20 era . ODI strike rate 71.23.

Ambati Rayudu - Plays in T-20 era , was once considered successor to Sachin in ODI's . ODI strike rate 69.23.

Just Sayin'.

[Electron]

Speed-gun allright? Taylor's whole over measured at 120kph.

8 balls in the match, and fastest delivery is 125kph.

 

[Electron]

double

 

[Electron]

Holder hurrying the batsman with final ball, speed gun shows 122kph.

 

[desi_launda]

speedgun must not be working properly

 

[IAJ]

Strange WI opted to bowl first. Is it a chasing ground?

Btw, what a lovely stadium with the mountains towering in background.

A small, dew-prone ground. Even Dhoni said he would have preferred to chase.

Dharamshala gets the worst dew among all Indian grounds.

 

[Electron]

130kph barrier yet to be crossed. Average bowling speed - 124kph.

They should just stop showing the speeds, its embarrassing.

 

[Electron]

Rahane looking fluent. Dhawan starting slow as usual

 

[Mr Consistent]

water fall amazing

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Akshar Patel better be careful - there is a lot of elbow movement going on when he bowls his quicker ball.

I suppose the WIs don't chase because mentally they are rubbish at it.

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[Mr Consistent]

another boundary poor bowling

 

[Electron]

Hackawan targetting shorter boundaries.

 

[Mr Consistent]

Dhawan on fire

 

[Electron]

His holiness Dalai Lama watching the match.

 

[Mr Consistent]

3 in a row

 

[Saurav]

he is clean,bowls with half sleeves

 

[desi_launda]

4 fours in the over!

 

[Electron]

130 kph barrier crossed after 7 overs.

 

[Mr Consistent]

Good batting by rahane

 

[Noobosauras]

meh no interest in this game honestly!

Looking forward to Anelka(Mumbai) vs Trezeguet(Pune) at night!

and one got out as I type lol

 

[Mr Consistent]

kohli off the mark

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

he is clean,bowls with half sleeves

He is clean but sometimes he does extend a bit.

[MENTION=7898]Gabbar Singh[/MENTION] is right.

Watch his last over against CSK in CLT20.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Kohli has wonderful wrists.. should try a little leg break as well.

 

[Arsal_AK]

The ground setting is just beautiful. Reminds me of some matches I watched in Abottabad.

 

[Mr Consistent]

100 up for india

 

[Mr Consistent]

The ground setting is just beautiful. Reminds me of some matches I watched in Abottabad.

agreed ATD ground is very small

 

[Saurav]

He is clean but sometimes he does extend a bit.

[MENTION=7898]Gabbar Singh[/MENTION] is right.

Watch his last over against CSK in CLT20.

I know but I think its within limits.

 

[Batman_DB]

no sense in playing two left armers in the same match

 

[Anchorman]

Really impressed with Rahane. Looks so assured at the crease. Very rarely troubled.

 

[Mr Consistent]

plumb but umpire

 

[MRSN]

plumb lbw not given.. Indians once again getting the benefit of not using DRS. [MENTION=134240]Electron[/MENTION]

 

[battler]

Vineet kulkarni is one of the worst indian umpires ever.
Seriously Indian umpires shouldn't be allowed to officiate

 

[Arsal_AK]

That was dead.

What the hell was the Ump doing there??

 

[Electron]

plumb lbw not given.. Indians once again getting the benefit of not using DRS. [MENTION=134240]Electron[/MENTION]

We got four against us last match, so there is nothing like "Indians getting benefit again".

I want DRS too, but its sad that people can only see the one going in our favor. West Indies still lead us 4-1.

 

[imback]

Lol.. Inside edge.. You guys should go to check your eyes

 

[Justcrazy]

Poor selection of bowlers by WI, they persisting with same kind of all rounders.

 

[imback]

Rahane is unlucky
impact was outside off

 

[battler]

And now he gives it when he was probably not out.

 

[Justcrazy]

That was dead.

What the hell was the Ump doing there??

Umpire was sleeping.

 

[imback]

plumb lbw not given.. Indians once again getting the benefit of not using DRS. [MENTION=134240]Electron[/MENTION]

Check your eyes

 

[Mamoon]

Rahane is a tremendous player, but needs to make his ability count for more.

 

[Justcrazy]

142/2

27 overs

As it turns out, that was NOT-OUT.

Rahane given out unfairly. So, 5 Decisions AGAINST India this series, compared to none against West Indians.

 

[Justcrazy]

Rahane is a tremendous player, but needs to make his ability count for more.

He will do well in Australia.

 

[Mamoon]

He will do well everywhere, just needs to improve his concentration.

 

[Justcrazy]

WI need more wickets and few tight overs here.

DRS is a must , it should not be in the hands of teams.

 

[Anchorman]

Rahane is a tremendous player, but needs to make his ability count for more.

Completely agree. He rarely looks troubled even in good conditions. It's not often you see him edge the ball. Doesn't seem to have a hunger for centuries in ODIs though but still a massive upgrade on Rohit.

 

[Justcrazy]

Raina is in form of his life.

 

[Anchorman]

Raina is in sublime form.

 

[Electron]

DRS is a must , it should not be in the hands of teams.

Yes, true. The smaller 2 of the Big 3 need to use their share of VETO regarding this. Someone has to control BCCI's childish demands.

 

[Mr Consistent]

The West Indies team has pulled out of their tour of India

 

[Mr Consistent]

 

[Justcrazy]

Great batting by these two here

 

[Mr Consistent]

fifty for kohli back in form

 

[Anchorman]

Kohli with back to back 50s.

 

[MRSN]

Good to see Kohli back in form.

 

[Justcrazy]

Samuels would be hammered here soin.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Point 1 - Slow batting against WI in India does not mean Kohli is back in form.

Point 2 - Kohli's issue has not been his form but a particular delivery. Until he is tested with that ruthlessly and he comes out with flying colours, one can't say for sure we have got back our old Kohli.

Still pretty decent knocks.

Would do Kohli's confidence a world of good.

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 35 runs .

 

[Electron]

Indian team's fortunes this WC rely heavily on Virat Kohli. I really hope that he scores a 100 here, cuz if he does, they will keep coming.

Agree with everything. Still backing him to be your best batsman in Australia and truly putting the doubters to rest.

 

[Justcrazy]

India set for a big total here.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Hopefully bro.

Hopefully.

With our terrorizing bowling, we need Kohli to click to have any chance to win games.

 

[Justcrazy]

184/2

35 overs.

 

[Mr Consistent]

big six by raina

 

[Justcrazy]

Samuels is not a wicket taking option, WI need specialist bowlers

 

[Justcrazy]

India will win this easily.

 

[Justcrazy]

Hopefully bro.

Hopefully.

Indian bowling is not that bad as you making it.

 

[Justcrazy]

A carnage will hit WI bowling soon

 

[Mr Consistent]

excellent hit by kohli

 

[Justcrazy]

198/2

37 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

shoots like Goli.

 

[Justcrazy]

Do not think WI can chase this.
