Other teams now have an additional blueprint how to bowl to he ....bombardment of short-pitched bowling will get him outta there asap...yuh could see how glad he was to walk off when out after being struck couple times on his finger.....comparing his technique to Greaves against the same bowling was like comparing man an boy!!
CHASE ...GUTLESS WIMP!!
@InHindsight
Fickle how bro??.....credit given when due an by the same token criticism....did you see his inns in its entirety an how he handled the short-pitched bowling ??.....dnt be surprised if it's another 21 inns or so before he makes at least a half-century ....he has a very poor technique...his back foot hardly ever moves as if stuck in cement he's essentially a back foot player even to good length deliveries!
@CCW
CHASE ...GUTLESS WIMP!!
This must empower you to loudly declare a player is a gutless wimp on a message board.
You must feel very strong and powerful now eh???
Carry on
@Narper
Oh lawd.....bro i just din like what i saw an how he handled the bodyline attack an glad to be out of there even before the umpire's finger was raised....i assume you saw it too if so how did you see it???
@CCW
Look chap...in my opinion you can voice your disagreement or disappointment in a player....we all do.....but to start threads with these bold hurtful subject matter shows disrespect and a lack of appreciation for players who represent us at the highest level..
BTW.....current WI players read this message board.
@CCW
Based on this innings after having played test cricket for so long without a history of being bounced out makes him a gutless wimp?
Chase has been known to be susceptible to short pitch fast bowling so has shai hope
But i dont know why you would call him a gutless wimp?
@Narper
On reflection my words might have been somewhat harsh but I'm from an era that saw an appreciated players toughing it esp against some of our formidable an ferocious fast bowlers of yesteryear not to mention the likes of Lillee an Thompson an later down Brett Lee amongst others....but now we live in a namby-pamby era where egos an feelings are more fragile an hence by an large complimentary comment is preferred for fear of hurting feelings an effecting psychological damage even for third-parties!!!
@voiceofreason
Chase is not captain matetial. Lacks guile and guts and to my mind does not have a huge amount of respect within the squad.
Bowling today with an I jury that kept him off the pitch for a day just blew me away.
@InHindsight
quite possibly he(Chase) was targetted as never before....I'm pretty sure after yesterday it will be a template for other opponents ...we'll see!!
Hopefully Reifer helps Chase straighten out his technique to playing short pitch bowling, he has come too far to now be suspect to short-pitched bowling.
Good half centuries from King and Campbell. CONGRATS to West Indies on a series win, well-deserved!!!!!
