Lots of big name 20/20 players in the squad including prominent WI players.

Might be worth a peek in every now and then

I looked at almost the entire game on YouTube (search for GleeJoy) and Cooper's arm looked suspect from behind but extremely straight side on. I am referencing the side on replays for his bowling in over 12.

Premier Sport in the UK...but I don't subscribe to that, so I'm following on cricinfo.

Narine, four overs 1-29.

Santokie, three overs 0-19.

Samuels, 69 not out from 52 balls, leads his team to victory....

how good is cooper? he been the MVP of this tournament so far

 
mikesiva 2015-11-30 11:16:42 

In reply to navindesigns

Yeah, he seems to have been the standout player...we should reconsider him as a member of the West Indies team in this format.

Santokie, three overs 0-31....

Kevon Cooper, four overs 2-30.

Evin Lewis gets his ton! 64 balls, seven boundaries, six sixes....
cool

 
BenGman 2015-12-02 12:29:38 

Considering Barisal Burners signed Evin Lewis before the draft and ppl thought they made a big mistake, they wanted Lewis to get a few games in before Chris Gayle replaces him in the line up. Now they might not get to drop him, but at least they showed the doubters that they scouted well.

Barisal Bulls have Evin Lewis, Chris Gayle, Kevon Cooper, Rayad Emrit (or is he just a consultant since he doesn't seem to be officially on the squad list?), Brendan Taylor, Seekkuge Prassana, and Mohammed Sami as oversees players and can only play 4 per game.

It will be interesting to see now how they rotate these players especially if everyone is healthy.

Is Andre Russell injured? How come Dwayne Smith is not around and he is one of the 6 BPL century makers, no one wanted him?

 
BenGman 2015-12-03 06:19:25 

First rotation today...Cooper rested for Emrit to play.

 
mikesiva 2015-12-03 11:45:54

Cricinfo's headline says

Gayle special steers Barisal home


I don't know how you "steer" a team home with 92 n.o. in 47 balls

with NINE sixes and 6 fours.

If that is correct - I want to see Gayle blasting them home smile

 
mikesiva 2015-12-10 10:02:26

A better headline would've been something to do with "Gayle-force"....

Rayad Emrit, four overs 2-29.

Evin Lewis out for nine...Emrit 54 not out from just 28 balls! Six boundaries and two sixes.

 
BenGman 2015-12-10 11:11:05 

Wow Emrit!

Now is it Gayle, Lewis, Cooper and Emrit as the foreigners for the next game or are they going to 'rest' Lewis?

 
mikesiva 2015-12-12 07:40:53 

In reply to BenGman

Lewis 'rested'....

Meanwhile, somewhere in Bangladesh:

1.5
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, FOUR, bowls it full and wide, Gayle gets down one knee and carves it over cover for four more
1.4
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, SIX, tossed up on off stump, he leaned into the shot and smothers it over wide long-off, no one stopping it this time around
1.3
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, no run, played back to the bowler, quicker one too
1.2
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, 2 runs, tossed up on off stump, he clears his front leg and chips it over mid-off. No timing on this one, Nasir sprints back and taps it back
1.1
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, FOUR, GAYLE..! Fuller on off stump, presses forward and swats it over mid-on, one bounce and over the rope
big grin

 
mikesiva 2015-12-12 07:44:44 

3.6
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, FOUR
3.5
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, no run
3.4
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, SIX, fuller on off stump, he gets down on his knee again, brings his big heavy blade in time and lofts it over cover for another fab six
3.3
Mosaddek Hossain to Gayle, FOUR, fuller, in his arc and he thwacks back over the bowlers head. Long-off was stationed but..!

I have a private TV server at home (Dual Xeons 16 Threads + 24GB RAM + 3 Cable Boxes + IR Blasters, Windows Media Center + ServerWMC + Emby Media Server and DDNS) for streaming all over the world, but I stream mostly to my phone when I'm actually in the house/school/driving or when I'm by family who do not have SportsMax smile

But usually h*tcr*c.*nf* or cr*cfr**.tv has all the games.

For the final...

BB: Lewis/Prasanna, Cooper, Sami and Emrit
CV: Kulasekera, Russell, 2 of Shezad/Zahidi/Malik (Santokie misses out)

 
BenGman 2015-12-15 11:30:41 

Didn't realise Russell left for BPL too.

Well no West Indians on the champion team Comilla Victorians (who played today), but Samuels, Santokie and Russell helped get them to the final. Coopers ends the tourney as the top wicket taker, 22 from 9 matches. Congrats to Mortaza, 3 times captain of the winning team in 3 BPL tournaments.

BenGman 2015-12-15 11:57:08 

In reply to navindesigns

I think thats maybe one of the reasons for Samuels supposedly moppy face (I only saw 20 minutes of the first test). He was leading the Averages in the BPL with 149!, and was surely valued there in Bangladesh as part of the winning team... to be stuck playing for the West Indies, being ridiculed by everyone, playing for less money, and longer work hours playing the test match!
