Garbage from Cricinfo"
Chris Gayle has given West Indies a flying start and has pushed India on the back foot. The inexperienced attack wilted under his onslaught and second session should be an interesting one. But for now , as the teams head for lunch, here is a Cricinfo Stat fact for you: Among away venues where India have played 3 tests or more, St. Jonh's, Antigua, is only one of four away venues where India have a 100% undefeated record. They have, prior to this test, played 3 tests at Antigua and remained unbeaten in all three tests, while they also have a 100% undefeated record at Kandy (3 tests), Auckland (4 tests) and Georgetown (6 tests). Will that record remain unbroken or will Lara's men tarnish it? Join us for the post lunch session, this is Sriram Veera signing off for the moment. Sajan Nair will take up the live commentary in the second session.

On the flip side, they should have also shown the venues list, where 'India has a 100% losing Record'...I guess they can't be blamed for not doing that:

'That List must be long and Pretty Shameful' ... :23:
 
Brutal assualt by Gayle before lunch.

Players back on now, Munafiq Patel to bowl the first over.

116-1 (20.4)

Indians getting a caning at the hands of Gayle, 68 (73) and Sarwan 24 (45).

Even Kumble's getting some stick, 2 4's in his first over.
 
OMG Sreesanth sledging Gayle :))) .
Munaf also thinks he's tough. :D

dont worry soon indians pick up a wicket, ala lara , cartman would be jumping up n down with joy and would shortly make his way to this thread.
 
Gayle played brilliantly, now its Lara's turn. :D:D

28.6 Sreesanth to Lara, SIX, hooked away brilliantly! It was short and rising, on the off stump line, Lara shifted his weight back and pulled it over midwicket. The crowd are up on thier feet!
28.5 Sreesanth to Lara, FOUR, one-handed drive to cover fence! It was a low full-toss, outside the off stump, lara bent his knees, shaped up to drive, his top-hand came off the handle but he still found the placement and the power
 
Lara's average is 86 on this pitch including his quadruple century
 
Lara gone :6: :6:

I was hoping for some vintage Lara, Chanderpaul in, Windies 162-3.

Just to clear it up, he was caught at point of the bowling of Patel.
 
I have not been even the LEAST BIT impressed by any of these so called bowlers in this 'New India'.

I am not at all worried about India or Indian cricket. We are much better. They know it and we know it. Everybody knows it.

Munaf patel looks a good bowler though. He has got that extra bit of pace and accuracy than all of the other bowlers coming out of India. He's bowled well in every match he's played so far.
 
I agree Munaf seems to be a fine bowler! I remember he bowled some excellent spells vs ENG too! I must say that it was a very strange move to drop Irfan Pathan!
 
We are teaching India a lesson in how to bat on this pitch!

India struggling along at barely 2.5 per over and we have raced away to 182 for 3 at 4.44 per over! So much for it being a difficult pitch! Perhaps India are just crap?

We need to get a lead of at least 100 runs......350 would be perfect. Sarwan, Chanderpaul and Bravo are three key batsman. Need to get some runs.
 
ah well. So much for Sarwan getting runs. Guess Chanderpaul and Bravo have to do it then. 100 run partnership coming up!
 
Bravo seems to be a very handy cricketer.
