Match on BT Sports in the UK.

Shiv out to Stewart for three slashing outside off.

 
robbo 2018-02-10 13:20:43 

Chanderpaul goes caught behind.... slow, slow pitch.

 
anthonyp 2018-02-10 13:22:00 

9 runs after 5 overs? rolleyes

Shiv and Hemraj need a rest!

Wtf!

That umpire blind? Pitched way outside leg and given. Lbw? lol

 
robbo 2018-02-10 13:35:44 

Oh dear..... awful decision

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 13:35:59 

In reply to robbo

A shocking decision by the umpire! That wasn't even close. Gidman pitched the ball well outside leg stump.
rolleyes
The umpire should know that a right hand pacer bowling wide over the stumps to a left hander is going to bowl most of his deliveries outside leg.

They paying dem chaps to umpire? For sure I could do better than that guy lol

Gidman appealing for everything now.

mikesiva 2018-02-10 13:44:16 

In reply to Narper

Hetmyer gives it away. Out caught at mid on for 10. Gidman gets a genuine wicket this time.

 
anthonyp 2018-02-10 13:45:56 

In reply to mikesiva

I woulda do the same.. Hety plays ah brainless shot once again..

180 on this deck will be like 300..

Ah hope Jaguars lose all their remaining matches for playing Barnwell lol

 
Windies2017 2018-02-10 13:49:21 

In reply to anthonyp

like the youngsters getting pay to rot on the bench..

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 13:52:16 

In reply to anthonyp

Gidman gets his third wicket. Leon Johnson tried to turn it to leg but got a leading edge which popped up and went caught and bowled.

 
anthonyp 2018-02-10 13:54:01 

No wonder our cricket suck.. This is shyte for ah cricket pitch!

 
davo 2018-02-10 13:55:46 

Hetmeyer has this glaring weakness of hitting airborne shots. 80 percent of his dismissals are this way. Limited footwork with body weight backwards instead of forward more closer over ball. Cant understand why this problem exists with so many coaches around him. Great eye and power but flawed technique, this kid wouldn't go very far with such flaws.

 
Narper 2018-02-10 13:56:04 

Guyana 29/4 12.0ovrs

Bramble 2* Barnwell 1*

OUT : Johnson 1 Hetmyer 10 Hemraj 5 Shiv 3

Wkts: Grant 1 Gidman 3

 
anthonyp 2018-02-10 13:56:20 

In reply to Windies2017

Barnwell averaging 18 after 39 list A match yet the clowns continue to pick him..

Adams scoring runs and taking wickets year after year yet he cant get a game..

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 14:00:00 

In reply to anthonyp

Bramble out for two edging outside off. Gidman has four wickets.

 
anthonyp 2018-02-10 14:00:32 

One more gone .. Will Jaguars make 50? razz lol

 
Norm 2018-02-10 14:10:01 

Things looking really bad here for the Jaguars. The lower order will have to bat really well to make this a contest.

What ESPN is the match being shown on? ESPN Caribbean?

 
davo 2018-02-10 14:11:20 

The limitation in technique of these batsmen is so glaring, & with Guyana being the best 4day team around, u don't have to think hard why Windies is the newest minnow in world cricket. Yes the pitch is slow & not conducive to easy stroke play, but it's no excuse for this embarrassing 38/5 score.

 
robbo 2018-02-10 14:12:35 

In reply to davo

This is a problem with so many young batters today..if you rely so much on airborne shots to score you will fail regularly, even in the 50 over game...it’s lazy batting.

Very well said.

davo 2018-02-10 14:23:53 

In reply to robbo

Compared to past players who had such better footwork etc and fewer coaches, to now when there're so many paid ones, it's preposterous.

 
goofballs 2018-02-10 14:24:59 

In reply to goofballs

Those aerial shots good only when we play in backdam when grass high and many cowfoot holes and cow dung present.

Then again, this is cow dung pasture cricket.

[b]In reply to davo[/b


Totally agree... it’s one of the reasons Kohli is so successful...he can ‘lick it’ with the best of them but he scores so many runs ‘along the carpet’ in all forms of the game... he can also turn the strike over with singles etc.... so many young West Indians think batting is solely about ‘ stand and deliver ‘ (upwards)..... I suppose the preponderance of white ball cricket is to blame for this lazy style of batting.

Shiv propped up the Guyanese team in the 4Dayers..Not so this time.

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 14:55:57 

In reply to goofballs

Tredwell bowled Rutherford for 22 with a straight one. That was a slog that failed to connect.
big grin

 
anthonyp 2018-02-10 14:56:47 

Another brainless shot.. This time from Shurfane.. 87-7 now lol

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 14:58:00 

In reply to anthonyp

Barnwell out next ball for 36. That was a swoosh outside off stump that got a tickle to slip.
cool

 
davo 2018-02-10 14:58:39 

In reply to robbo

Yep, Kohli is a prime example of good footwork technique in offense & defense. He is also a stamina fitness freak. I remember the tremendous running between the wicket with him & Dhoni in that T20 semifinal which they eventually lost to Windies last time, which he attributed to his stamina work.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 15:04:13 

Why all the negative comments about Guyana and West Indies batsmen? Kent hasn't batted yet.

 
Windies2017 2018-02-10 15:05:37 

In reply to anthonyp

any reason why bishoo is the number 11? he should be batting at 9 or 10 atleast..

 
davo 2018-02-10 15:11:06 

In reply to Norm

This is all constructive criticism here. And unless we continue to bury our heads in the sand, and not call a spade a spade our cricket will continue to be mired in the doldrums at world level.

 
Windies2017 2018-02-10 15:12:55 

In reply to davo

your statements are on point

 
granite 2018-02-10 15:13:33 

So we are so bad that we don't know even,the basic technique,I just have to wonder.

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 15:14:04 

In reply to Norm

If Guyana bats out 50 overs then Permaul and Bishoo can make life difficult for the whingeing Poms of Kent.
cool

 
anthonyp 2018-02-10 15:17:59 

In reply to Windies2017

Bishoo cant bat ahead of Keemo and Shepy..

Will probably bat ahead of Permaul

 
Narper 2018-02-10 15:20:22 

Guyana 112/7 35.0ovrs

Paul 13* Shepherd 11*

In reply to anthonyp

hmm for sure not keemo but is shepherd considered an all rounder (havent seen too much of him)? its times like these bishoo can take he time and make life miserable for the fielding team

 
davo 2018-02-10 15:23:24 

In reply to granite

Let's start at the top & examine the people who make decisions for our cricket. Cameron wants only "yes men" around him, & not those who know best that are not afraid to be outspoken.

 
Narper 2018-02-10 15:28:12 

Gawn


114 -8

 
Windies2017 2018-02-10 15:28:52 

Soft dismissal Keemo

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 15:29:26 

In reply to Windies2017

Paul chips a soft caught and bowled back to Denly. Out for 13.

These dismissals have been poor.
rolleyes

 
Norm 2018-02-10 15:30:03 

In reply to davo

This is all constructive criticism here.

Where? You call bad mouthing players, and not just those in this match, based on part of an innings "constructive"? So, if Guyana turns around and bowls out Kent for under 100, would you come back here and apologize for your girlish whining?

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 15:33:22 

Gidman 10 overs 4-20.

 
Narper 2018-02-10 15:39:11 

40th over a maiden

 
Norm 2018-02-10 15:49:22 

Anthonyp's favorite player Barnwell is currently the top-scorer with 36.

Both batsmen stranded mid pitch, but the fielder's throw at the wicket misses! 145-8.

Short outside off, and spanked for 4 by Permaul! 150 up. 150-8.

BOWLED next ball by one that kept low!

 
mikesiva 2018-02-10 16:01:07 

In reply to Norm

Permaul exciting cameo ends for 24.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 16:02:24 

In reply to mikesiva

Guyana is enjoying some luck here. Crawling their way back into the game!

Let's hope Bishoo and Shepherd bat out the last 5 overs.

 
doosra 2018-02-10 16:03:14 

Come on Shep

bang a few more

170 is a decent score here

 
Norm 2018-02-10 16:07:33 

Shepherd's batting is showing its worth here. Keemo needs to start taking his batting seriously.

Edged dangerously past the keeper by Shepherd for 4! 155-8.

Bishoo caught on the boundary trying to clear it. 158 all out in 47.1 overs. Shepherd 30*.

 
doosra 2018-02-10 16:15:08 

In reply to Norm

Bishoo should have ...blah

they needed another 10 - 15 more here

 
davo 2018-02-10 16:21:23 

In reply to Norm
Dude, concentrate on the bigger picture, this piss poor lot, will continue to fail at international level, with their current woeful flaws, hence our lowly status the last eighteen yrs.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 16:52:43 

Kent innings about to resume, as darkness sets in.

Paul to Bell Drummond. Edges just short of 2nd slip.

Kent 1-0 in 1 over.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 16:58:15 

Rutherford to bowl.

 
granite 2018-02-10 16:59:32 

In reply to Norm

This Bell-Drummond fella had some big write ups here in England,he hasn't lived up to expectations.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 17:00:49 

In reply to granite

This Bell-Drummond fella

Caribbean heritage?

Kent 4-0 in 3 overs. Kent watchful.

Rutherford short and Crawley pulls it to the mid wkt boundary for 4! 8-0.

Yea,I think Jamaican.

This could be a tight match taking shape.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 17:09:45 

In reply to granite

We are still to see him living up to such expectations!

Shepherd down on the ground after fielding a ball. Seems to have hurt his ankle. Walks off the ground.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 17:11:36 

In reply to granite

This could be a tight match taking shape

Guyana fans are hoping so. The Jaguars seem to have lost their early momentum. The top order batting has become lazy.

30-0 in 8 overs. Kent well on the way.

Jaguars learning the hard way that the whole team has to contribute to the effort - all the time - if you want to win consistently. You cannot depend on a few to do the bulk of the work most of the time.

Keemo straying onto the pads in his fifth over, and being driven into the on side for runs.

38-0 in 9 overs.

Permaul again. Long hop put away for 4! 42-0 in 9.1 overs.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 17:48:08 

Crawley moves down to Bishoo, misses and is brilliantly stumped!!!Kent 57-1.

Shepherd to bowl. Bell Drumond caught in the gully by Hety! Kent 57-2.

Denly in. Marks his guard Shiv style, with a bail. Gets a no-ball. Free hit coming up. SIX!!!!!

 
Norm 2018-02-10 17:56:27 

Denly caught behind by Bramble in front of first slip off Shepherd, from one on off that left the batsman!!! Kent 72-3.

"The Kent team is a club, but Hampshire is a country." Wow! Devers' geography is seriously sub par!

 
Norm 2018-02-10 18:12:22 

Kent 94-3 in 18 overs. At this rate Kent will win in 30 overs. Time to bring back Paul, after this Bishoo over.

And Paul comes back to bowl. Kent 100-3 in 19.2 overs. 101-3 in 20 overs.

Bishoo again. Long hop pulled for SIX!!! Kent 107-3 in 21 overs.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 18:28:01 

Dickson given out lbw to one around leg from Bishoo! Kent 109-4.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 18:34:34 

Blake hits it high into the deep where Shepherd takes the catch, off Permaul!!! Kent 113-5 in 23.3 overs.

Kent 113-5 in 24 overs.

Bishoo to Rouse, the Kent keeper. Given out lbw! Comms seem unsure. Kent 113-6 in 24.2 overs. Crowd behind the Jaguars! Stewart Grant in. Beaten and almost bowled by Bishoo! Dropped at 1st slip by Johnson next ball! Went fast and low to Johnson and was very difficult, by all accounts.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 18:43:13 

Permaul again.

Pulled away to mid wicket for 4. Bad ball on leg. Turned to fine leg for 4! Two bouncing deliveries to end the over. Kent 126-6 in 26 overs. Kent needs 33 to win.

Bishoo again. Stewart Grant caught behind by Bramble off Bishoo!!!!! Kent 127-7 now! Decision being reviewed. No no ball. Gone.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 18:48:52 

Treadwell in. Kent 127-7 in 27 overs. 32 needed by Kent, to win.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 18:49:59 

Permaul again, bowling to 2 left-handers. Kent 128-7 in 28 overs.

Bishoo, in his 10th and last over. Kent 129-7 in 29 overs. Bishoo 10-0-35-4.

Permaul continues, with Kent needing 30 to win.

"The pressure is building ... like a pressure cooker. Who will it explode on?", says Devers! Quick single. Bramble does not collect cleanly and misses a run out chance! Shiv mis-fields and gives away a single now!

Kent 132-7 in 30 overs now.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 18:59:51 

Paul to bowl.

Kent 136-7 in 31 overs. 23 to win.

Permaul again. Long hop pulled away behind square for 4!

Kent 141-7 in 32 overs. 18 to win.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 19:06:39 

Johnson to bowl. WHY????

Pulled away to square leg and mis-fielded on the boundary by Rutherford. Goes over the boundary for 4!

Kent 148-7 in 33 overs. 11 needed to win.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 19:09:43 

Permaul again. Maiden.

Kent 148-7 in 34 overs. Permaul 9-3-36-1. Drinks.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 19:14:34 

Paul back on. Kent batsmen need to be careful about backing up too much!

Full toss edged past slips for 4!

Kent 155-7 in 35 overs. 4 to win.

 
Norm 2018-02-10 19:18:48 

Shepherd to bowl.

Kent 157-7 in 36 overs. 2 to win.

Paul again. Steered away to third man for 1. Scores level. Next ball edged to third man for 4!

Kent win by 3 wickets, with 13 overs to spare.

Guyana loses Hetmyer and Bishoo after this match.

 
cricketmad 2018-02-10 19:31:19 

It appears that Guyana is still feeling the effect of being stung by the Scorpions. it is the only plausible explanation for their performance today. big grin big grin
