Scorpions have to get wickets here...if Barbados reach 150 scoring at rate without losing wickets they will put 270 on the board and 270 is a hard task chasing in a finals.

Chase scores slower than these guys so THEN the pressure was on.

Of course once they are scoring at 4 an over...they just have to be patient.

It depends on where the first five wickets fall. Once they fall just under 40 runs and just under 200 runs....a team has hope to get 271

Lets hope Jason is not afraid to give Stoute or Carter the ball, its a two pace wicket, both Chase and Dowrich could not adjust to the ball jumping and slowing.

 
analyst-kid 2017-02-18 16:09:20 

In reply to openning

MY fear is that he withholds Stoute and Carter and they blaze Carlos!

 
analyst-kid 2017-02-18 16:10:52 

Personally I think Jamaica even worse against the spinners than Barbados....for me the opening spell of Holder/Roach is very pivotal!

 
openning 2017-02-18 16:12:35 

In reply to analyst-kid
Dude watch the game, check the number of times Jamaica scored 200 runs chasing.
I would like them to start swinging, like they did against the Leewards, this match would be over before the 25th over.
Jamaica has to bat and rotate the strike, swinging for the fence on that pitch, will have the result as Carlos and Nurse.

 
Oilah 2017-02-18 16:12:40 

Observations...I en know wuh pelting is nowadays but when I was going to school nobody bowling like Sewell would have been allowed in de nets. Shai Hope can flat out bat. Great knock also by Holder who will become a genuine allrounder.

 
mikesiva 2017-02-18 16:13:14

I believe Powell should have bowled instead of Taylor once Campbell and sewell were bowled out.

One has to think, when batting,
When he realized any ball or bowler can get him out, he will value his time at bat

Why did they have to go after Roach/Holder? They could have eeked out four an over for the first 8 overs or, get a feel of the wicket and manage the chase from dere.

I don't like Blackwood habit of skipping down the pitch to the pace bowlers before they have even released the ball. That questionable strategy backfired this time.

In the semis dujon said he seems to bat by numbers.

Rapped and Rolled!

This pitch has in demons in a particular spot.

 
Norm 2017-02-18 19:36:45 

Leveridge looks like he could hold an end.

powen001 2017-02-18 19:37:49 

IS Carlos Braffit Bimshires Dwayne Bravo?? lol

 
Norm 2017-02-18 19:38:02 

60 needed from 36 balls. Powell to face Carlos B. Same bowling strategy - slow it down and keep it wide of off.

Leveridge swings and it goes high!!! And he's caught at mid off.

Bim wins!!!!!

44.3
CR Brathwaite to Powell, OUT, short and slower outside off, Powell slogs and it skies down towards the sight screen. Holder ran across from long-on and held the catch.

R Powell c Holder b CR Brathwaite 65 (59b 5x4 4x6) SR: 110.16

All over

Barbados Pride win by 59 runs

 
Norm 2017-02-18 19:40:25 

And, just like that, it's over!

Crowd somewhat disappointed. They were getting behind Powell!

 
Runs 2017-02-18 19:42:27 

Why they held back Powell?

That game management was disappointing by the scorpions. Last 8 overs costs us over 100 runs and none of the top order batsmen saw the need to play an innings similar to Hope. Powell played the 'Holder' innings. Switching up the order also didn't work as Powell should have come in earlier. Congrats to the pride, the best team in the tourney.

Why they held back Powell?

There ought to be an inquiry.

First he didn't get to bowl until the others were beaten out of the attack, and now this. evil evil

I still think BIM had the best team in the tournament.
