Hearing elsewhere the game will be ok?

To be honest the West Indies if they can get 40 overs in should annihilate them anyway, U.A.E have been very boring in the last few games sadly.

Come on rain!

 

[Sarun]

Tauqir has emerged as one of the more interesting Captain in what could be surely his last tournament.

Sounds like the Cyclone Pam is likely to pass through the bay late Sunday/early Monday with the immediate forecast not being too bad. So a result is still likely.

Was sunny an hour again, lots of clouds now. I wouldn't mind Windies not going through. Wasn't it rain which denied them a semi spot in 92 too?

I think in 92 it was losing to Australia and the rain point that pakistan got against england that prevented them from going through

Lol Karate

 

[smalishah84]

oh wow, windies on fire

 

[anil1405]

Holder wreaking havoc.

 

[Contra]

Windies up for this game aren't they. Taylor better get a wicket or two though, for my fantasy team's sake ;P

 

[wellAlbidarned]

how long until teams do the smart thing and ban players from reviewing LBWs unless they know they've smashed it? It's such a low turnover rate.

 

[smalishah84]

looks like holder wants to send the uae team packing all by himself. Doesn't want to depend on his team

They haven't shown they are worth depending on that's why xD

 

[smalishah84]

yeah, i wanted to add that but thought it was too obvious

 

[anil1405]

That was some delivery to get rid of the best opposition batsman.

 

[andmark]

I wish the Windies could do this more

 

[Contra]

Taylor! <3
