Windies declare on 447/6.

Junior not out on 207, which is higher than his father's HS of 203.

Lets not get carried away yet again by another new WI player making a huge score early in their career to mean that WI cricket going to turn around. Remember Mayers made 200+ runs on debut against Bangladesh in a test a few years ago as well and Bangla is a far better test team than ZIM.

Chanders showed/showing a lot of promise. He started of very well against a very strong Australian pace attack.

Adrian Bharath made a debut test century against an better Australian bowling attack. We should take a modest approach to hyping up these new players for their own good too.

Trinidad's attack in that game was top notch as well
Eventually four test bowlers came out from that lot (Harold Joseph was selected and taken to Australia but never played test cricket)

Khemraj is Shiv's father. He coached both Shiv and Tage.

Clearly he has the sauce!

Australia all out for 91. Lose by an innings and 132 runs. 6 - LBW's.

Lost all 10 wickets in just over ONE SESSION.

It good for them. All the mind games they tried to play about the pitch backfired.

Lovely victory by India. The Aussies complained about the Nagpur pitch being a spinner's wicket....both teams had to bat on it, better team came out on top.

ENT! Besides ZIM is on our level if not slightly worse than us. Give them a few years and we would wish we could beat them.

This thinking is why we are 8th in the test rankings. Teams above us scoring 400 in a day routinely now. Heck we even saw England score 500 in an incomplete days play recently.

Yes we didn't lose but this type of batting will not beat India Australia or England on a regular basis if at all.

We have to move from not losing to winning.

Cricket is a mind game as well. Teams making 400-500 in a day are psyched to do so. WI not ready for that level of cricket as yet.

The Guyanese players coming to the party for WI Cricket, last match was Tage with his double 100 and now Motie with his 7 wickets. The oil money working wonders boi.

Windies 133/4, 18 runs ahead.

Looks to be a low scoring match, weather permitting.

Just remember he was left out of the team against Australia for the former batsman now specialist spinner Chase. Tells you how messed up our selectors are.

I had a feeling after the 1st test against ZIM they were going to replace Motie for Gabriel but they replaced Roach instead. If Motie hadn't gotten any wickets in the 1st test he wouldn't be playing today. WI modus operandi is to replace specialist spin bowlers with faster bowlers for decades.

Correct. But the fast bowling kitty has been dry for a very long time - since 1995.

That's not the tail.
Chase is a batsman who bowls and the WK is supposed to contribute runs as a batsman in any other team.
