West Indies v England | 3rd ODI | Bridgetown | 27/3/09

[Amjid Javed]

Anderson into attack and welcome with a slap for 6!

 

[Oxy]

90-0

GAyle 73 from 36 balls

 

[Amjid Javed]

6 more... Gayle on fire! smoking even!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Eight SIXES by Gayle!

 

[kablooee87]

Gayle > your favorite top order hitter

 

[Oxy]

If Gayle gets the remaining 27 runs......100???

 

[On_the_up]

8 sixes now, yes 8 sixes by gayle

 

[12thMan]

8.1 Anderson to Gayle, (no ball) SIX, flap! Ugly, disdainful, powerful hitting! It's just remarkable. He stepped outside leg and flat-batted it over long-on

8.1 Anderson to Gayle, SIX, another one! This is an innings no one will forget. A shorter ball which he uppercuts, on the walk - on the jog, running away to leg-stump to clear his arms - and it flies into the third-man stand. Several rows back. What a stroke

Gayle on 73 off 34

 

[Oxy]

I think he'll let him get his century!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Simmons might as well just block and see if gayle can get a hundred here!

 

[On_the_up]

Afridi had 100 by now in his first inns in ODI cricket, Gayle's faced 37 balls and is on 73

 

[Amjid Javed]

This has been brutal. I remember Jayasyriya and Kalu opening for sri lanka once and jayasuriya scored 95% of the runs in a brutal opening stand. This has been the same!

 

[OZGOD]

Gayle going ballistic here

 

[On_the_up]

Flintoff's figures 2-0-6-0 some things never change

 

[kablooee87]

I love how it's a 91 run partnership @ 10 rpo and Simmons is sitting on 7 off 18!

 

[Amjid Javed]

W.I 91/0 after 9 overs...!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Flintoff the only bowler gayle has shown respect to so far!

 

[12thMan]

Oh man Simmons takes a single instead of playing the full over.

Gayle's still on for his hundred here. As long as Simmons doesn't do anything selfish, like score runs - cricinfo

 

[Amjid Javed]

Hope Gayle does get a hundred here!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

good over a maiden.....well 3 runs is like a maiden in this slaughter

 

[Oxy]

Simmons doing a KP and playing for himself!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

powerplay taken

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

444444444444444444444 he is on 80

 

[Oxy]

Gayle out!

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

bowleddddddddddddddd gayle is out

 

[Amjid Javed]

Four more for Gayle, Game should be over in 2 over or so me thinks!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Gayle gone! Booo hooo!

 

[12thMan]

Match over

10.2 Anderson to Gayle, OUT, boo - bowled him. Another full toss which Gayle tried to smash over midwicket but lost both his middle and off stumps
CH Gayle b Anderson 80 (43b 5x4 8x6) SR: 186.04

 

[On_the_up]

power play taken
Gayle OUT!

 

[OZGOD]

Exact same thing happened to England in Australia 7 years ago. They got owned - even the scoreline was exact.

[On_the_up]

Can we play a 'Beer' match after this one is over?

 

[Amjid Javed]

I guess sarwan and simmons will slowly milk there way to victory here!

 

[On_the_up]

Miagnificent shot by Sarwan, textbook off drive

 

[Amjid Javed]

Lovely drive by sarwan for 4

103/1

 

[On_the_up]

Groundstaff getting ready, rain in the air

 

[On_the_up]

Simmons on 8 of 23 deliveries, playing the steadying role

 

[Amjid Javed]

Could be some rain! Just hope game isnt spoilt here!

 

[On_the_up]

need 20 overs in WI inns to constitute a match, Simmons swivels on to one and gets a 4

 

[On_the_up]

England problems started in the 20-20 for 20 stanford match, they have only won one match since then and that was due to Dyson

 

[Amjid Javed]

9 runs to win.

Apart from gifted 1st odi england have looked clueless once again in 20/20 and odis.

Yet another sport they invented and are rubbish at!

 

[On_the_up]

[On_the_up]
