:miandad Thats what I said 4 hours ago - and I stand by it.

 

[Amjid Javed]

Fletcher looks like a promising player.

 

[12thMan]

Fletcher 18 (40) - Chanderpaul 6 (21)
WI 40-2 after 14 overs @ 2.85 - need 174 to win @ 4.83
last 5 overs 17 runs

 

[Amjid Javed]

West indies need to get to around 100/2 after about 25-28 overs to set a platform to maybe win match.

 

[12thMan]

Fletcher bowled by Hopes
Wii 41-3

 

[OZGOD]

WI are on the rack. I feel if we can grab another wicket we may be able to run through the rest of their side.

 

[12thMan]

Wii last 5 overs 6-1

WI 49-4 after 20.5 overs

 

[OZGOD]

Big wicket. I think it should only be a matter of time, unless they decide to slog for everything and get freakishly lucky.

Ponting i s going to get spanked by the match referee now...

Well deserved for him, he is too rude against the umpires. Might consider playing football

 

[12thMan]

Browne out ct in slip off Clarke
Wii 53-5 after 24.4 overs - need 161 more @ 6.35
last 5 overs 6 runs and 2 wickets

 

[12thMan]

Pollard out ct off Clarke

last 5 overs WI 6-3

Ponting i s going to get spanked by the match referee now...

I hope he does, actually. If other people are going to get carpeted for dissent, then he should too. Hopefully they ban him for a couple of matches because he needs to be more intelligent about how he goes about making his inquiries. It's not like he's contributing with the bat at the moment anyway, and that way we can give David Hussey a go.

West Indies falling apart. Ponting had a few strong words of dissent with the umpire after the earlier appeal off Clarke was turned down. Didn't look nice at all and Ponting will be called up.

Personally I think Ponting's frustrated at not getting runs for most of this tour, but he needs to pull his head in and realise that as the captain of an international side, he needs to set an example.
