West Indies chose to bar

In reply to mikesiva

Damm - I would have gone Kyle Myers for Sherfane Rutherford not Brandon King.

In reply to goliath

No quips about King Charles today....

Charles out for four.

Pooran out for one.

West Indies 7-2

Big loud stewwwwps

7/2

In reply to Chrissy

Mayers out for 11.

Windies 17-3

This is an absolute disgrace. Why take out King unless he is injured? Also, Pooran for all his talent has been poor this series. Kyle Mayers has shown today why he was dropped as an opener. I'm not too sure about this lineup. Perhaps they will surprise us.

In reply to Chrissy

Why would you dropped King. They have no idea

In reply to Keibo

Chase b Zampa for 37 (20)

WI 72-4

Powell out for 21

WI 79-5

Where did they find Rutherford ? He's gold when he connects

52 off 33 balls. Well done Rutherford! First half century in international t20s for Mr. Ruthless.

53*...

Surprise packet

In reply to Windiesfan78

Seems like everyone stop watching and missed the Rutherford assault!

Start watching Rutherford had 21 and Russell 31.
Since then Russell score 2 and Rutherford accelerated to 66.

Russell picking up the pace now, moved to 61in a flash!

220/6, excellent recovery from the West Indies. Now for our bowlers to do the job. 5 wicket haul from Chase coming up.

In reply to Tua

Indeed!

In reply to StumpCam

I am really pleased with Rutherford today. I doubted his inclusion but I'm happy he proved me wrong.

T20 team..once shamar comes back looks good for wc....one spinner short

In reply to pooranian

3 scores of over 200 in Australia is nothing to be scoffed at. Our bowling and fielding let us down in all the matches. We should have won the first. Motie needs to be included as the second spinner.

In reply to Windiesfan78

Motie for Meyers from this line up.

I can only see Shamar replacing the other Joseph.

Let's see how Shamar does in Franchise cricket, I don't think he'll be so effective on local pitches in T20s, maybe next WC, not this one

In reply to DIEHARD

Nothing is wrong with that. That's too much pressure on the young man. Let him concentrate on test cricket and odis

In reply to Chrissy

What you say now.
Awful start but what a comeback
Good to see Dre Russ doing his thing and the contribution of Rutherford is priceless

In reply to Poggy

New record 6th wicket stand 139 between Rutherford and Russell.

Why the skip don't try Meyers early, with the newish ball?

This bowling attack is pure crap...we can't defend 250 as well

In reply to pooranian

Very poor. Even the delivery that got Warner was a trash delivery. We need Shamar

Straight boundaries ain't too big

In reply to Windiesfan78

same

Dis done!

So Chase doan know how to dive for a catch.

G,hood performance- we could have won all three

We made 200 in all 3 games, Australia didn’t

Runs in this series
Australia 637
WI 629

Well, Chase is still relevant, a good ODI game and now a good T20 game. Good win by the WI.

In reply to Chrissy

Totally agree
