West Indies (likely): 1 Chris Gayle (capt), 2 Runako Morton, 3 Ramnaresh Sarwan, 4 Shivnarine Chanderpaul, 5 Dwayne Bravo, 6 Darren Bravo, 7 Denesh Ramdin (wk), 8 Jerome Taylor, 9 Ravi Rampaul, 10 Suleiman Benn, 11 Lionel Baker


India (likely): 1 Gautam Gambhir, 2 Dinesh Karthik, 3 MS Dhoni (capt & wk), 4 Yuvraj Singh, 5 S Badrinath, 6 Yusuf Pathan, 7 Ravindra Jadeja, 8 Harbhajan Singh, 9 Ishant Sharma, 10 RP Singh, 11 Ashish Nehra



i have a feeling india is going to destroy west indies


gayle
morton
sarwan
chanderpaul
dwayne bravo
darren bravo
ramdin


only 7 batsman in an ODI game and 1 of which is making his international debut. also, who knows what morton brings to the table now, and ramdin is always shaky. with chanderpaul and sarwan not really in form [from t20], i really think west indies is going to get slaughtered.



any thoughts? :13: :S ?

Was wondering myseld.

You know i'd jokingly say their still recovering from the shock of Pakistan winning the T20 cup.

But the sad thing is some Indian fans are actually upset that Pakistan won the tournament. Not upset that a rival won it, upset as if there has been a death in the family. I don't know why, but some actually feel that way. Some people need to stop being so obsessed over such trivial matters

Not quite mate...not all of them disappeared.
 
2-1 to India. With one match being washed off.

India might be down at the moment but they definitely are not out. They will win eventually, but expect Windies to give a tough fight especially since we are depleted a bit.

I would love to see Abhishek Nayyar in action. Was very impressed with his batting skills. The way he caned Flintoff for consecutive sixes in the IPL..man quite a talent.
 
Selection of Morton ,David Bernard And Rampaul Instead Of Lendl Simmons, Kieron Pollard, Darren Sammy ...is a blunder by West Indies ....

West indies keep on making mistakes series by series.....

Players Like Pollard ,Sammy And Simmons are future of west indies but they keep on dropping them without Any reason ...

Rampaul is pure T-20 Bowler and Morton is Test Player......very very shocking selection...

INDIA WILL WIN THE SERIES EASILY DUE TO BIGGEST BLUNDER BY WEST INDIES SELECTION ..

Razzak in Making if given good run by captain and selector ...he has ability but will get time to settle ... :qadir
 
^^ Well Razzak was fast medium, but I guess Abhishek is only medium..not sure about his bowling skills at the moment. But would fit in with Indias 4 bowlers and assorted part timers strategy.

For bowling conditions in the WI he should be ok, but might be less useful in Australia or SA.

Lendl Simmons was very impressive in the T20 WC. I agree that it is a baffling decision, but the selectors might have question marks over his temperment in the ODIs..you never know.
 
^^ Good word play :). Expect the rest to be back once we start winning again!

Stop your India obsession, take a deep breath count to 10 and relaxx... ENJOY your win, it was well deserved after all that has been going on with Pak cricket, lets hope this will win trigger the ressurection o Pak cricket..
 
I dont understand why the Indians even agreed to this tour or why they are sending their main squad? This is such an unnecessary tour. Everyone in the Indian team has been playing since god knows when, they need a break, give them some rest. They cant give their best being completely over worked and jaded.

I stated this other Thread, Some here in PP are way too much obsessed with India. Just enjoy your moment currently..

As far as Indian Posters here in PP .. I don't see anyone would feel disappointed by Pakistan winning the cup

But I can assure most would aggree nothing can beat this in Record books which is read as WC Final - India Beat Pakistan

Come SriLanka series if things don't fall in as expected, everything would be Topsy Turvey,
 
it's because the Indian MEDIA is obsessed with Pakistan cricket...almost every article that is posted here is from Indian sources!

I agree with you, Except money hungry BCCI , no one is interested in this series .... BCCI is looking to compensate the TV rights which they sold in whopping sum of $$$... Meaningless series

Morton is a Test Player and he is already 32....somebody young Blood like pollard and Simmons will be good for west indies to build their team for Champion Trophy....

India made a Mistake by Selecting Nehra Instead of Yo Mahesh or Gony ..both are awesome player ...
 
I am very much here and I am not really hurt by Pak winning the T20 WC, though personally I wanted it to result in rain and washout.:P
 
I wonder why was Nehra dropped from the team in the first place, he was a decent bowler and had he played consistently would have gained in more experience and improved his skills just like Zaheer Khan has. I bet it had to do with Greg Chappel at that time who wanted everything his way.
 
India to win by less than 10 runs or 3 wickets. Would be a close game.

If every article that is posted here is from Indian sources, it's Indian MEDIA obsessed with Pakistan cricket???

That's incorrect reasoning!

a poll (in timepass) tells second most numbers of PPers are from US, does that make US a cricket obsessed nation?

what does that have to do with anything? everyday there is a new report about the Pakistan cricket team that is not in ANY other country's newspapers, not even Pakistan...and half of them turn out be complete fabrications...so please tell me who is obsessed with who in this case?
 
This is untrue. both teams need a break rather than playing meaningless cricket. I do feel for the young Indian team that is being thrown from one end to the other.
 
if you want rest , just say so ..there are other players who can take their place .. too much cricket is a non issue .

hmmm.... I don't think injured players will say considering the money at stake.

A case of below par performaces aka T20
 
Where is Indian Version of Jhonty Rhodes Aka Mohammad Kaif...?? :)))
 
i am going to look out for the Indian version of VIV RICHARDS.........GautamGambir! ;-)

Trash articles, like you mentioned, are not just dedicated to Pakistan - it's over all teams around the globe in Indian media. Recently it might be more of Pakistan, since that will "sell" fast for obvious reasons.
 
1.3 Baker to Karthik, FOUR, Thump. It was slightly short in length but outside off stump, Karthik was looking to come forward, shifted his weight before cutting it real hard past point
 
1.5 Baker to Gambhir, SIX, Wallop. What a slap-dash that was. He charged down the track and knifed through the line of the short-of-length delivery. Up and over long-on. It was hit on the up.

thats yousuf fake pathan .. :))) :))) :))) :)) :)) :)) :D
 
Gambhir gone for 13.

Short ball getting the wicket for Taylor. Trying to play the pull shot.

It's the short ball again.
 
Gambhir worked over on the short ball....tut...tut
 
Taylor bowling at 90mph+ consistently.

Windies looking sharp in the field.
 
:))

Another short ball.

Baker gets his man.

Sharma this time. Good catch from Bravo.
 
Rockstars aint singing too loudly at the moment...

2 down
 
its confirmed, sharma cant play short balls ; Its becoming an achilles heel for these indian batters....BOWL THEM OUT CHEAP ...BOWL THEM Short stuff. doesnt matter if you bowl military medium....just bowl short
 
breaking news.....all those looking for jobs....BCCI is hiring bowlers who can bowl short to make their inept batsmen practice for the Champions Trophy...all bowlers who can bowl short will get £500.00 an hour cash plus £1000.00 overtime if sharma cannot learn during normal office hours...
 
right time to get my whites out or pyjamas for that matter
 
260 should be a good total here

btw this has been really boring , both teams look uninterested

I disagree.

I think Windines have enjoyed bowling this short stuff so far.
 
^^its the same when Windies toured england before the T20 world cup...same thing with india now....not interested low key series with no incentive....they all look tired
 
it would be interesting to see how Darren Brava Performs....if he is anything like Dwayne then they might have found a new gem...thats about the only interest I have in these one dayers

they have bowled , what 3-4 short balls till now ? Indias score is alright for this pitch
 
India are going at 4.66 an over...as much as i hate to say it thats not bad at all for an ODI at this stage especially with 2 wickets down. We are so used to T20 that we're forgetting if india go at this rate till the 40th over and then accelerate from there theyll get around 280 without too much trouble!
 
Yuvraj is the key wicket
His wicket will be a difference of atleast 30 runs
 
cricinfo dont even have this match on the main part of their screen...thats the first time ive ever seen that happen with an India match! What an utterly pointless series.
 
TBH i really don't see the point of this series.Every one needs a break in our team.They all looked out of sorts or injured .

There was no point in playing Yuvi,Dhoni etc.
 
Yuvi turning it on now.

Two 6's in a few deliveries.

One off Gayle and the other off Benn.
