Ireland v West Indies | Group B | WC'11 | Mohali | 11/03/11

[Badsha]

beautiful shot.

 

[Badsha]

Rate has gone to 7.6. They need to keep the strike rotation. No need for slogging yet.

 

[Watsupdoc]

Another upset on the cards?

 

[James]

Need to start getting 6-8 runs per over very soon.

 

[Badsha]

Answer the question someone asked you whippy!

 

[Badsha]

128 more to win. 16 overs left. Stay there Joycee!

 

[zainkhan]

KJ O'Brien still to come 128 more needed from 16

 

[Badsha]

Wilson is looking to try and hit it.

 

[Badsha]

O'brien isn't likely to score a big one here. Joyce is the main man here.

 

[zainkhan]

2 runs

 

[Badsha]

:6 massive

 

[zainkhan]

 

[Badsha]

With Wilson going big, Ireland have two settled batsmen on the crease capable of slogging now. Good sign for them.

 

[zainkhan]

I wish Ireland to win just to do mess with the point table

 

[Badsha]

Wilson is hitting it. Good strategy by Ireland letting one guy to just go on the offensive and the backbone to stay back.

 

[zainkhan]

yeah they are looking forward to it

 

[Badsha]

I wish Ireland to win just to do mess with the point table

Also, for growth in Irish cricket.

 

[zainkhan]

Joyce might bring HOONdred

 

[James]

Joyce needs to get 130 or so, then there's a chance.

 

[zainkhan]

Also, for growth in Irish cricket.

yup , off course

 

[Badsha]

Joyce needs to get 130 or so, then there's a chance.

I think if he gets more than 130, they'll win it for sure. Wont be just a chance.

 

[zainkhan]

Is batting power play still to come?

 

[zainkhan]

recquired run rate can be fixed in P.Play

 

[Free Hit]

 

[zainkhan]

tight

 

[Free Hit]

another

Terrific Stuff

 

[James]

what an innings this is from Gary Wilson too. Take a bow.

 

[zainkhan]

 

[zainkhan]

14 from this over

 

[Watsupdoc]

Come on West Indies!!!

 

[zainkhan]

joyce must get this 100 , good oppertunity should not do like pollard did

 

[Badsha]

 

[Badsha]

Cleaned him up. Still a chance though. Obrien to come in now!

 

[zainkhan]

 

[zainkhan]

KJ O'Brien should do some thing 6 4 6 6 4 6

 

[Badsha]

O brien doesn't look like he's in the mood

 

[zainkhan]

joyce furniture was badly disturbed ,,, good luck for Obrien

 

[Schickelgruber]

Hmmm what a twist this will be for the tables.

 

[zainkhan]

O brien doesn't look like he's in the mood

he is care full here good chance to win should play slow and then take PP.So should not be panic

 

[zainkhan]

good 50

 

[zainkhan]

run rate is creeping up

 

[Watsupdoc]

Pollard seems to a real threat this WC. Although so far he has only scored against "minnows".

 

[zainkhan]

KJ O'Brien showing his intent

 

[James]

great catch

 

[zainkhan]

 

[Watsupdoc]

KOB

Pollard took the catch

 

[zainkhan]

cusak in not bad,

 

[zainkhan]

What a figure

Batsmen Runs B 4s 6s SR
Gary Wilson (rhb) 55 55 5 1 100.00

 

[James]

84 off 57 with a powerplay in the bag is definitely on

contrary to popular PakPassion belief, the WI bowling looks terrible

 

[zainkhan]

tight single

 

[zainkhan]

trouble here

 

[Free Hit]

Ashoka with another Shocker

 

[James]

That was outside the line and UDRS upholds it!!! Do they think he has not played a shot?

 

[Free Hit]

hit out side, ashoka stil given out after refferal

 

[NZcricketfan]

An Asoka De Silva special

Seriously he needs to be removed from umpiring he is completely inept.

 

[zainkhan]

he is not going

 

[hur rizvi]

PAthetic umpiring how is this out ??

 

[ShaazE]

Legendary umpiring! Umpire of the Year material.

I really do hope Ashoka is on the ICC Elite Panel.

 

[saeed-sohail]

This should never be out.Clearly hit outside the line.

 

[zainkhan]

bad decision, Asoka is completely lost here

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Ashocka )

 

[Usman Chadda]

Umm...what the hell happened there?!

Also LOL @ Gavaskar's ridiculous attempts at trying to justify the horrific decision. There is too much doubt as to whether he was or he wasn't playing a shot. The impact was clearly outside the line, should have been over-turned

 

[James]

Only way that can be justified is if he didn't play a shot. Some would say he did, some would disapprove of him having the bat behind the pad. Shame Ireland have been screwed out of a chance of winning by shoddy on-field umpiring though...

 

[NZcricketfan]

Umm...what the hell happened there?!

That is Asoka De Silva completely ruining a game.

 

[zainkhan]

3rdu umpire should have overturned this one

 

[0tt0man]

Commentators say Ashocker reckoned the batsman was not offering a shot

 

[Romali_rotti]

lol Ashocka ), Go UDRS its your birthday we gonna party like its your birthday gonna sip bacardi like its your birthday..... UDRS MY A** GET RID OF THIS FILTH, COME ON BCCI KILL THIS THING...

 

[NZcricketfan]

UDRS can't help you if Asoka doesn't know the rules.

Anyone remember the story about Asoka complaining of unfair treatment because he and a few other Sri Lankan umpires failed the written tests?

 

[Strike!]

Ashocka at it again.

 

[Romali_rotti]

What I have saying for a long time now, UDRS wont eliminate human incompetance so no need for it...

 

[zainkhan]

Irish tale is no strong,, just losing wicket over wicket

 

[thecricket]

out..

 

[zainkhan]

ABC run out

 

[zainkhan]

Nederland has lost 4 games comfortably and so has kenya

 

[Usman Chadda]

Commentators say Ashocker reckoned the batsman was not offering a shot

Too much doubt on that factor. Benefit of the doubt goes to the batsman. Ashocka has ruined a potential cracker of a game

 

[zainkhan]

 

[thecricket]

out

 

[ShaazE]

Someone give the deejay an iTunes gift card.

Seems like all he has is a Bollywood CrapMix, and a sample CD of Ads and Jingles with a Caribbean theme. 'Hot Hot Hot'

 

[thecricket]

won by 44 runs

 

[Iqbal'sh]

Typical reaction, exactly the same as the CricIndfo commies, and no surprises.

What the UDRS did was make it simple for Ashocka to reach the correct decision, him being incompetent is not the fault of technology. Moreso the ICC's for keeping this buffoon on the ICC panel of Umpires.

In many ways the use of UDRS has cofirmed what many PPers have been seeing for a long time ie likes of Harper and now Ashocka are not fit to officiate at this level
