3rd ODI: West Indies v England at Bridgetown

 
shivnotout 2017-03-09 07:47:51 

West Indies win the toss and field.

"There's grass on the wicket and it normally gets better as it goes on. I want to make use of the conditions," says Jason Holder.

 
shivnotout 2017-03-09 08:06:24 

Just the one change for both sides. Gabriel out and Joseph in, as expected, and Alex Hales returns for Sam Billings...

Alarming that Carlos maintained his place. Perhaps word on the street is that medium to sweet is the order of the day. That is truly a head scratcher.

 
shivnotout 2017-03-09 08:45:40 

Joseph to Roy, FOUR, short and hoisted over the leg side once again. I think pitching it up is going to be the key on this surface

In reply to anthonyp

At least we can safely say Rovman was not a part of this losing team!

Great wicket by Joseph, luckily we called them out for they were bent on using Cummjns to replace Gabriel.

In reply to Slipfeeler... should have had another.

 
shivnotout 2017-03-09 09:03:43 

Joseph to Root, no run, flicked in the air and

dropped
! That's a bad miss, I'm afraid. Chipped in the air, never in control of the shot, but Lewis at square leg made the ground diving forward, but couldn't cling on

0 Holder to Root, no run, dropped! Another spill, this time from Nurse in the gully. Perfect line and length, demanded the edge, and though he made good ground to his right, he couldn't cling on!

Why Bishoo in this side
Most inconsistent
Cyah settle on a good line and length

 
Cornfused 2017-03-09 10:05:41 

Better field placement and only 1 from that Nurse over.

after 4 overs at 6.5 why wasn't he taken off with so many other options?

In reply to Cornfused

A man bowling $&&#% and u talking about field placing?

He can't set the field now... He's who bowling.

 
NYCGURU 2017-03-09 10:11:15 

In reply to camos

True there are nine other options besides him, the truth however is that there are not many if any good options.

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 10:11:33 

In reply to 90mph

why is Bishoo in the side and better spin bowling allrounders like Cornwall,Campbell and Chase all on the outside watching?

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 10:16:45 

The spinners however getting pummelled here and a bowler like Brathwaite keeping them quiet...Holder should introduce Carter and sneak in some overs with him.

This clearly shows how much Rovman would have meant here.

 
mikesiva 2017-03-09 10:16:55 

In reply to shivnotout

Left shoulder or wrist. Lewis not batting at the top of the order today.

Gone to Queen Elizabeth hospital for x-rays.

 
NYCGURU 2017-03-09 10:21:20 

In reply to mikesiva

That is a shame. One of the few players in the team capable of exploding and take the fight to the bowlers. Oh well.

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 10:30:12 

Holder might as well remove all the spinners and bowl Carter and the rest until a wicket falls.....Bishoo/Nurse have already bowled 10 overs anyway.

 
Runs 2017-03-09 10:31:29 

Nurse bowling runs now razz

 
Slipfeeler 2017-03-09 10:32:06 

In reply to mikesiva

Lewis get your full rest not point coming back to a losing team, you are a great player but the pressure to keep up scoring with non-scorers was too much for you. Get well soon!

England 185/1 (32.2 ov)

 
natty_forever 2017-03-09 10:45:22 

In reply to analyst-kid... was the plan for the seamers/pacemen to keep it tidy while the spinners try to buy a wicket?

 
mikesiva 2017-03-09 10:49:29 

I am not surprised that lbw was overturned. Kraigg was bowling wide right arm around the wicket to a right hand batsman.

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 10:50:22 

In reply to natty_forever

it seems so...cuz there is no reintroduction of Joseph to try to prise out a wicket!

 
camos 2017-03-09 10:55:00 

In reply to analyst-kid

will we get another wicket today?

 
shivnotout 2017-03-09 10:55:14 

Joseph to Hales, SIX, dug in short, Hales takes it on, big top edge... and it sails all the way over fine leg! Big release of emotion from Hales when he realises where it was going, punches the air, takes of the helmet to drink in the applause. If there was any doubt about who should be Jason Roy's opening partner, it's been dispelled. Fifth ODI ton for Hales, and fifth in the last 17-18 months


eng 205-1 35 ova

 
natty_forever 2017-03-09 10:56:32 

In reply to analyst-kid... they going bring him back now that the batters well set and get licks.

 
natty_forever 2017-03-09 11:01:30 

Who is the captain. Does he have a clue?

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:02:10 

He has no choice but to bowl Kraigg Brathwaite and hope he can continue to keep it quiet while rotating himself Carlos and Joseph.

While doing that, He needs to introduce himself for one or two overs in an effort to keep it quiet...only himself and Carlos Brathwaite has been able to keep the English quiet.

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:03:48 

Holder is impressing me here. In persisting with Joseph he shows true captaincy ability. I never though he had it in him.

 
mikesiva 2017-03-09 11:04:26 

In reply to natty_forever

Joseph gets hales for 110.

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:05:41 

having taken a wicket Holder should introduce himself or Carlos now next over.

 
shivnotout 2017-03-09 11:07:29 

In reply to analyst-kid

holder will bowl to tailenders.as usual to get cheap wickets lol

 
sgtdjones 2017-03-09 11:09:40

as this stage...it is not tailenders..it is power hitters.

 
shivnotout 2017-03-09 11:13:23 

England 232/3 (37.4 ov)

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:13:44 

In reply to shivnotout

it made sense for Holder to come here at the fall of a wicket....he is the most economical bowler.

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:16:15 

however with 12 overs to go...Holder needs to find 3 overs from someone else besides himself Joseph and Carlos Brathwaite....maybe 2 from Carter and 1 from Nurse.

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:17:31 

Carlos is the next most economical bowler...it makes sense bringing him here too....one more over from Holder then bring back Carter.

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:20:52 

Damn! Rovman Powell would have been so good here! How could they keep leaving him out like that?

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:24:42 

Holder has now bowled 2 consecutive overs conceding 5 runs! But there is STILL 10 to go and he only has 2 left...HE MUST bowl one of his spinners or part time bowler in Carter!

 
mikesiva 2017-03-09 11:29:00 

Nurse bowled Morgan for 11!

 
analyst-kid 2017-03-09 11:29:41 

He goes to Nurse and he gets the wicket first ball!

 
natty_forever 2017-03-09 11:33:25 

Cricmofo:

Nurse to Stokes, SIX, floated up and defended on the front foot

 
shivnotout 2017-03-09 11:36:57 

2 runs, short ball, Root swivels and swats it through square, again there's two - and there follows the bat raise, plenty of Brits on tour in Barbados to applaud Root's ninth ODI hundred. A whirring dynamo of a knock

They don't have the batting or bowling skill to compete on good tracks.
There is no really good player in the team. Not one really.
Just depressing. Has ruined my night. As usual.
