Need two good partnership. Some observations

Powell- what a disaster- batting when nothing was happening with the ball, got in and found a way to get out- disgusting and this must be his last act.


First innings meltdown was caused by Powell out to a very ordinary ball and complacency. The batters deserve a beating, but they could redeem themselves by winning tomorrow.

Dujon as commie- horrible prediction- said we can't win and must play for draw. Pure hogwash, the pitch is still good for batting and our batters can win if they apply themselves.

Promote Jason ahead of DaSilva and Mayers.

Umpire Brath. he remains a clear danger to our survival- he may well call give umpires calls against us as he have been doing all series.

The WI could win if the two overnight batsmen stick around for forty five minutes to take the freshness out of the Pakistani bowlers.

I am not ruleing out a WI win either. To be honest with the batting record of the last 3 innings I think it is clear advantage Parkistan... So I am hoping for a draw but not ruling out victory for us.
Powell did us no favours , because I was banking on him to take the fight to them this morning. The Parkistan front bowlers did more than 20 overs yesterday, I expec them to bit a little stiff , if the ball and pitch continue to show same lack of assistance as our second innings so far. three runs an over is not impossible. we "just" need to be there at the end of day.

You eating too much breadfruit(boil and fry).....and curass...

Be nice to the resident Mullah.


However WI will cruise to victory....

Pak already talked to bookies and bets already placed....ITS ALL ABOUT GAMBLING WITH THE ASIANS..
UAE..DAWOOD KINGPIN OF THE CRICKET BETS

Mate, it wont be a draw. Either we win, or lose. There is no way we batting out 120 overs and not scoring 280 runs (assuming there's no rain, of course).

Yes we can win this. Hardly likely, but we really can win. Fight guys!

In reply to Emir
I guess you have not been watching the kind of batting we have been producing in recent times.

What's the story with Chase? He was off the field not feeling well - that will be a factor here - we need all our batsmen to fire tofay

As that poster used to say:

Licks!

For partnerships you need a few decent batsmen with mental strength.
