17.2
Nathan Ellis to Hetmyer, FOUR, Another one! Low full toss outside off, driven down the ground and Russell has to jump to avoid getting hit. Races away to the fence with the fielder inside the circle
17.1

Dwarshuis to Russell, out Caught by Green at long-off!! Full at the stumps, Russell was deep in his crease and tried to get under the ball. Doesn't get enough elevation and hits it flat down the ground. The long-off fielder was fairly straight and moves quickly to his right to complete the catch. The Russell-mania ends early tonight!

Nathan Ellis to Hetmyer, Caught by Green!! What a catch! A length ball outside off, Hetmyer hits it flat and through the line of the delivery. Looked like it might be six but the 6 foot 8 inch Cam Green rushes to his right from long-on and times his leap to perfection. Plucks that out of thin air almost

Bowlers have to save us again.

Catches MUST be taken.

it is that simple.

not convinced 189 is enough on this ground.

This is not going to be enough, unless the Aussies throw away their wickets. The rot just appears to follow into another format.

In reply to Windiesfan78

it sucks...all o them aint get the memo.

glad to see Hety FINALLY playing the way he always could instead of that cowswipe shyte

Not 10 times better than the Red Ballers last innings. But 7 times...don't think it is enough.
Should have been over 200 easily in the range of 220-230
Getting Maxwell early will be a big advantage///. But ...

In reply to powen001

We are supposed to be good in the final 5 overs. Really should have gotten past 200 runs on a good batting pitch.

Motie to Green, no run, full and straight, Green drives and hits the stumps at the bowler's end. The umpire goes upstairs, but Motie feels he didn't get anything on that. Telly umpire asks for UltraEdge now. Mitchell Owen is short of his crease, but did Motie get a hand to it? The ball dipped on him and if anything, it could be just fingertips but Motie's first reaction suggested that there was no contact and he didn't appeal as well. "I can't tell for sure if there is any contact," says the telly umpireNo spike on the UltraEdge eother

Match lost when we lost all those wickets

The reality bro is that we have gone backwards. Look how Bangladesh beat us 3-0 in St. Vincent.

Chase too late

Should've bowled earlier, should've bowled 4 overs

Got a call this afternoon

"Going cricket ?"

"Nope"

Made the right decision

175-6

miracle required please

220 would have done it I believe. DISGRACEFUL from the West Indies in those last 5 overs.

In reply to Narper

It is very difficult to watch WI play cricket. Really.

I hope this is a wake up call to our team.

In reply to hubert

Yes it is, things just keep getring worse. The only way for the West Indies to improve is for it to be run like a club. Time to bring in players from overseas with Caribbean roots. Our cricket is broken and needs fixing. Like it or not, unless you are a diehard West Indian fan, people will continue to lose interest.
