Find they take long

This is the reason right here people don't like India, not because of racism. FB_IMG_1719602866670.jpg

A Brit whining about the Indian schedule?

Looks like Michael Vaughn wants India to go back to the stinking days of British Colonialism.

Would love to see South Africa win today. Kensington Oval is where they played their 1st match in 1992 after the end of apartheid when they were admitted back into the cricket world. Looked like they were going to win that game but West Indies mash them up on the last day.

After all the subsequent times they choked in big moments, it'll be a good redemption story to win the world cup at this venue.

India batting like they studying the hurricane.

They want the match to done fast so they can get on their chartered jet and go home.

India batting a bit slow... Proteas have them in school

[wing]

Chokers gonna choke.

The Yawn Cup. What a boring world cup. Anyways time to move on and WI playing ENG just now in tests.

[Dizzy28]

Still can't believe the position SA were in and threw it all away

[fokhan_96]

Oh well. On a positive note the TV commentary for this world cup was actually good and entertaining. There was a good variety and kept the matches lively.

[*$kїđž!™]

Congrats to India..

Business as usual.

In other news, looks like the windies won't be part of the champions trophy next year as they are not in the top 8 rankings

[bluefete]

Once WI not in this World Cup anymore I don't give a F who playing who and who winning or losing.

The Yawn Cup. What a boring world cup. Anyways time to move on and WI playing ENG just now in tests.

Wey yuh now?

WI all out - 121. Now you know why England essentially banned WI players from playing county cricket.

We were able to play the moving ball much better due to county cricket. The WI batsmen DID NOT HAVE A CLUE TODAY.

[bluefete]

Brian Lara really said that WI batting lineup is WEAK.

[trinigamer]

Looks like three day innings defeat already..

[Dizzy28]

That 121 all out more exciting than the world cup.

I see we give another debutant a 5+ wicket haul. Debutants always put licks on we.

It indeed does look like another 3 days test, but I doubt England would declare too early. I feel it will be over on Saturday though.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

So much for the plans of giving Anderson a sour send off

[Dizzy28]

Was looking at the Lord's Ticket site for this Test a few weeks ago. days one to three were sold out but days 4 and 5 were not despite being on a sat and sun.

The English know their cricket because this game may not reach Saturday.

[fokhan_96]

By lunch tomorrow this game would be over. Another two to one special.

You gave then one day too many. Friday fuh sure.

BTW - Look at how many WI batsmen got out playing with the bat away from their bodies and without moving their feet.

Who is the coach and assistant coach again?

[DMan7]

OH gosh I was trying to sound positive for a change when it comes to WI cricket by giving them until saturday for the match to be over. They made me waste my positive thought yes. steupssss

[trinigamer]

Is not so much the losing, if WI play well and the other team play better, so be it.

Is this schoolboy cricket vs grown men that is so annoying.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

The world champions of cricket tournament more exciting that West indies atm

[Dizzy28]

England asked to bat by WI this morning are 257-4. Batting at almost 5 an over.
WI already on shaky ground just under two sessions into Day 1 of this Test.

[bluefete]

In addition to the absolute 2 2 WI are bowling, they will be fined for a slow over rate on the 1st day.

Dotish, stupid, brainless cricket.
