Are we going to have ESPN coverage for these playoff games, or the uni-perspective UpStream version?

Whichever if any, I'd very much like for Tino to be the color commie.

In reply to Narper

The three experienced players are back for Jamaica.

Radio Commentary on ABS

Jacobs has been overrated this season.
11 wickets of his 16 came against ICC Americas, the weakest of all teams.
Against the other teams (Bim, Guy, CCC) he took 5 wickets at 38 with an econ of 4.5.
Look they brought up his stats not good vs the other teams.
But can wreck the this T&T team to really establish his name this season.

But my money is on Miller, T&T biggest destroyer over the last decade.

Gabriel working up some pace.

Jamaica 1/0

SR Taylor 0 (5b 0x4 0x6)
CAK Walton 1 (1b 0x4 0x6)

In reply to SirGarny

Trinidad bowlers pitching it up and its disappearing back over their heads.

In reply to robbo

In reply to robbo

Ramdin constant talking behind the stumps pretty annoying

In reply to Andy99

4 off Emrit..first ball..... 100 up

take another 3 runs this over

3 sixes in dayt over,
dem man a murdahh Khary

In reply to positiveg

Looks like the Scorpions took up the pitch that Rampaul was talking about and carried their own

In reply to yardman83



Uh Uh..trouble...only 3 runs last over

In reply to SirGarny

i dont mind that. I want them to consolidate and probably bat until the 30th over. In the last couple of games where we got good starts when the openers got out the middle order wobbled a bit.So keep wickets in hand now and bat sensibly

In reply to yardman83


I agree 100%.....by the way...

is there another power play available? If so...how soon can they take it?

4 to keep the runs ticking

And another one to follow up

6 now

Out?

TV umpire says "safe"

Not out

In reply to Acid

Not out

In reply to yardman83

Nah not carried it you know
Dem man bring they own pitch. lol lol

This look like a target in excess of 350 here!

In reply to WestDem

Looks like Rampee GM his team

Taylor goes !!!!

J Mo strikes

174-1

In reply to Narper

Looks that way.....but with this Yaardies, you never know if they will screw up this start!

Taylor gave away an easy ton here!

In reply to Narper

Well that is good for de FL. Not that I in the semis.

In reply to nick2020

Rampee will come back and take 3 wickets...points for me

In reply to Narper

Well once you forget any economy bonus

In reply to Narper

If I was Ramo, I would hide him and guess what...Rampee start hide...Angel is back!

Chadwick averages below 25 in both OD and T20 at FC level yet them skunts in the commentary box talking about him being unlucky not to play more for WI in those formats.

In reply to Andy99...smh. go figure.

In reply to Narper

Good knock by young Taylor. 230 from 30 overs. . . . Not bad.

In reply to natty_forever

Walton gets his century. Well played young man.

In reply to mikesiva

Ravi get his too?

In reply to Andy99

Only in that he can change a game. He's dangerous when he gets going...but seldom does lol

In reply to Andy99

Scorpions 247-1 (33 ov)

Walton 101, Blackwood 44

In reply to mikesiva

In reply to Narper

For us? Americans can be selected?

In reply to Narper

Blackwood gets his half century too. Well done Jermaine !

In reply to mikesiva


Yes indeed...50 to JB....but him nearly run out Chadwick on 97

In reply to nick2020

If eoin Morgan can play for England then Steven Taylor can play for the west indies.

Taylor has two jamaican parents, but Morgan has no English parents.

In reply to nick2020

Gawn !!!!

Walton goes

In reply to SirGarny

Walton out lbw to imran for 117. Well played!

In reply to mikesiva

dubious decision...front foot way down the track

In reply to mikesiva

In reply to Narper

I need 100 from R Powell

In reply to mikesiva

Not sure why they never sent McCarthy! He has scored quickly in the innings he has played before. I do not like this chopping and changing of the batting order. I hope he proves me wrong.

In reply to yardman83

Men on track for 350. Yuh being greedy.

In reply to nick2020

Powell nearly tek out de Angel there!!!

In reply to SirGarny

Jamaica 300-2. And there's still nuff overs left!

10 more overs to go.

In reply to mikesiva

Imran Khan turn medium pacer now!!!

I do not know who "amedatman" is ,,,,,, except that he/she is a yardie.. But I am following Narps thread.

In reply to mikesiva

In reply to nick2020... you think we should declare?

In reply to amedatman

Still no reason to overstep Narps. Wackie and Admin decide who has rights on this board. I just have the right to disagree with them.

In reply to Narper

Narps.... I man following you

In reply to mitch44I do not overstep anyone bro.

The Scorpions scored 54 off the last 3 completed overs. Can they go on to 450 in 50?

In reply to jelfew... scored 75 off the last 5. another 75 off this 5 and you got your score.


Correction ... 80.

In reply to nick2020

In reply to yardman83

Blackwood gets his century! Well played young man.

Century No 3 coming up.

Looks like the Trinis serving up pies to them Yardie brethren so that some of them can look good for the IPL action.

Conspiracy afoot I say!

Ok, I take that back!

Tough luck Rowell, of all the yardies he'd the one who I would've liked to get the ton.

In reply to jelfew

Powell bowled for a tino best score.

Out for 95 off just 45 balls. Well played young man!

What's the difference in the last 2 overs. Come On Powell take your century.

I suppose something had to give. Great knock Powell!!!

Campbell out for a duck. Jamaica 434-4 from 50 overs.

Rampaul gets two wickets at the end.

In reply to mikesiva

Blackwood like he played for NO.

In reply to mikesiva

In reply to nick2020

Not impossible T&T. South Africa did it against Australia. However Scorpion is
on to the final.

Ramdin should explain why Mohammed, who after taking the first wicket and going for just 4 an over by far the most economical and having just bowled a MAIDEN was taken off for the next over and never brought on.

T&T in 47 overs. Leveridge going for plenty plenty.

In reply to amedatman

I am glad to hear that. Old farts like me are somtimes oversensitive

It is a game of 2 halves... T&T have to bat as well. Scoreboard pressure should stand for something.

This done...LOL!!

In reply to nick2020

Didn't you see he was trying to allow Powell to score his ton

Please...dis done..give me a break.

In reply to yardman83

Earlier I posted that T&T won't be able to chase anything over 350...

I still stand by that....particularly since the target is 434

In reply to SirGarny

Not even with an explosive start by Evin Lewis? He could be key to the chase.

Not following this competition, been busy.

Yard lash 400 plus.

Watching the reply now

Jamaica 434/4 (50.0 ov)
Trinidad & Tobago 9/0 (1.0 ov)

0.6
JE Taylor to Lewis, FOUR

JE Taylor to Hope, FOUR

Lewis hit the ball for six into the swimming pool.

Jerome Taylor gets the big wicket of Lewis for 18.

Dumb Umpires.

Obvious out, even the Batsmen walk.................

E Lewis c †Walton b JE Taylor 18 (10b 3x4 1x6) SR: 180.00

In reply to Narper

Reds seems to forget he is commentating on radio and not TV.

In reply to Narper

10 overs gaan arredy?

In reply to WestDem... cricinfo having hiccups. Have Leveridge bowling the third over, then they back to Taylor's over. Then them have Leveridge bowling the first over, yet is Taylor name the ball by ball.

In reply to natty_forever

The Tits playing hit or miss and ugly cricket here!!! They are scoring on tape delay!!!

... now them have Leveridge bowling the 2nd and 3rd over, and Leveridge getting the wicket.

In reply to natty_forever

The scorer is a Red Force team member....

Leveridge gets Hope

hpoe gawn off leverige

Leveridge again

Ottley goes

ottley gawn
Hope c Miller b Leveridge 17.

Red Force 38-2 (5.1 ov)

That was a very stupid innings by Hope. What 16 balls and 16 shots trying to hit 6 or 4, never ever gonna work.

In reply to natty_forever

Leveridge looking good even though the batsmen are going for him. This is the first time I am seeing him. He is tall. . . Which is good considering how short so many of our current pacers are. He gets the ball to climb disconcertingly. In that over he got rid of both hope and ottley.

In reply to mikesiva

Which one of our current WI pacers is short?

In reply to mikesiva

Bang on the helmet

In reply to Andy99

Well Mohammed it is up to you now.

Ouch !

In reply to Runs

Roach is short. But he nat current.

In reply to nick2020

If was always gonna be up to Lewis, JMo and Ramdin.
Even just to get to half that target its (was) still up to those 3.

JT gets Alexis for quack

LBW and gawn 40-4
Alexis plays across.

Alexis lbw b Taylor 0.

Red Force 40-4 (6.3 ov)

In reply to Narper

Man was batting with a broomstick, bat never looked getting close to the ball in his short innings.

In reply to LBW375

Jerome Taylor with pace like fire!

In reply to Andy99

In reply to Runs

You call Taylor Rampaul and Gabriel tall?

Tall is Stuart broad and James Anderson and Steven finn. Tall is Walsh ambrose and holding.

Holder and Carlos are tall but they are also slow!

T&T 75/4 13.0ovrs

Mohamed 21* Ramdin 13*

Trinidad & Tobago 100/4 (16.1 ov)

Emrit out for three. Powell gets his third. Man of the match?

In reply to mikesiva

Has a good look in for the MoM for real?

In reply to mikesiva

yup

In reply to mikesiva

I was about to say "this is a chance for Jason to get a century...if he does not run out of partners." My thought seems to be quicker than the balls.

In reply to mikesiva

Gabriel is only one from that trio that is currently in the WI squad , I will say he is tall

In reply to mikesiva
