Powell out cheap...Leewards still fighting!

MY take is that their batsmen just need some more experience and learn to score runs aginst quality bowling.

I expect them to improve quickly and come back stronger.

Despite wickets falling all teams in the West Indies should be bent on maintaining a rate of 4 an over then gradually increasing. Many of these batsmen are gifting their wickets going for big shots.

When the Leewards lose here, will that change the matchups in the semis?

if the Leewards lose ..they will play Barbados Thursday and Trinidad will play Jamaica Wednesday.

The last two batsmen for the Leewards are now batting like they understand one day cricket...if only they more talented peers could have shown this!

BUT THIS MATCH ain over yet!..ANY SCORE over 180 near 200 will give all regional teams trouble as seen in this competition!

Thanks, but VOR not going to like it. He has been hedging on the Leewards facing the much weaker Scorpions team. wink
