He is a classic HEADLESS DUMBASS !!!!

Shakib to K Powell, out Stumped!! Got him. That's 200th wicket in Tests for Shakib. What was Powell trying to do? Gets a chance to face his first delivery after 15 balls and what does he do? Runs down the track and looks to smash it down the ground. Suicidal! Shakib rifled it quick and full outside off, Powell gets yorked and the ball dips late to elude his attempt. Simple stumping for Rahim and Powell just gift-wraps his wicket, puts the ribbon on top to hand Bangladesh their first wicket.

K Powell st Rahim b Shakib 0(1)

With Shai and captain gone we seem to be heading for a loss.

The batsmen look completely flustered.

11/4 at lunch.. this is completely spineless performance

Just a week back Zimbabweans were schooling the Bangladeshis in Bangladeshis. I heard their commentators lamenting all day.

But we had made then look world class and the way the fielders and keeper were mocking at our batsmen was so sad...

Seeing the relative ease warrican and Ambris played, all that was needed was some time at the crease.

I seriously think that Powell should be dropped for his stupidity,maybe Warrican should open.

My least favourite player in the WI team

 
brians_da_best 2018-11-24 07:11:42 

Extremely stupid shot. I think he’s reached a stage where he feels he’ll get out sooner or later, so being aggressive is the only way he can get some runs before someone gets his wicket.

Still. Charging down the wicket first ball was shocking

You people seems like those without the brain going on like is something new about these young wi players.

In any team, he will be dropped next match, that wasn't poor batting, it wasn't a poor stroke that could be corrected, it was way beyond that, it was pure madness, don't give a damn- selfish shot.

 
Narper 2018-11-24 10:58:14 

That was a stroke crying out for help !!!

Please drop me !!!! Please drop me !!! this cricket is destroying my life !!!!

 
BeatDball 2018-11-24 11:02:10 

Your stance/body language has to be neutral! When the facting ball leaves the bowler's hand, then, in a brisk manner move, center the ball & lash!
sad confused evil

In reply to Dukes

smile Impossible!


He had a fight with captain or vice captain or coach?
His gyal leff him?
Maybe he couldn't get it up all night?

So, swing boy, swing.
Thank God it wasn't a fist or such and no frail ones within arms length.
***Always stand outside of arms reach.

Now, in de cowpasture cricket in villages (not Albion or Port Mourant) he would be applauded with "Good offer, good offer." Culture/mentality.

Kieran Powell became the first opener to be stumped on the first ball he faced. Overall, he is the first opener in 100 years of Test cricket to be stumped on a duck and 3rd opener with this rare dismissal in Test cricket after Monkey Hornby and Louis Tancred (twice).

In reply to goofballs

Not necessarily. Someone would have said poking is not going to get us anywhere. Need to score positively. He is just sooooo bad in understanding the game that he decides to play that shot first ball. Completely inexplicable.

He was equally bad in India and before bht was rewarded. So he just tries harder to prove that he does not belong here

 
buds 2018-11-24 11:48:16 

Time to replace him permanently..This guy have 20 lives.

Monkey Hornby

He I could understand, jumping from limb to limb, tree to tree.

BeatDball 2018-11-24 11:55:04 

In reply to buds He has to work harder. He's a decent batsman, articulate, from a small island...wi cant just thruweh de man...see how WI dont get support from Loosha!? No, no cannot thruweh de boi like that. It West Indies, aint it? WI cricket is political; think social representation; think esprit when windians gather to have a shot of those wicked rums of the region!

big grin

Sarwan in NZ, Gayle captain.
Took him longer to get out, however.
