One man left standing! I am no great fan but will never tease. Those that do should learn from his focus, application and the desire to hold onto his wicket.


This West Indies team is not totally bereft of ability but to capitulate in this manner means all is not well and somethings need to change.


That somethings are Gibson, again rumored to be heading to Duham, and Sammy.


Sammy has to step down for West Indies to commence the real rebuilding process. 


Please note It was India's seamers who did the most of the damage.


Over 50% of the wickets went to seam.


West Indian seamers are unthinking and unable to swing, reverse or move the ball of the pitch consistently.


Those who have harped on about 6 consecutive wins and number  5 position, kindly note what happens when playing atop team.


This is not a team beggared of talent so why is it not coming through.

The chairman is heart broken---he is now talking to himself and questioning his loyalty to WI cricket.  If he is wise---he'd stick to rooting for the great man only . :D

The Great man's ability to keep mentally focus is hard to find in world cricket.  Time and time again everything collapses around him but he keeps going! 

Fantastic ability to concentrate!!!!

Boycott may be a tad strange, but his cricket knowledge is impeccable.

ANOTHER THING:

* Chris Gayle should stop playing tests.

* Sammy should be dropped from the test team after the NZ tour.

* Ramdin's wicket keeping is very good but his batting sucks----time for him to be put out to pasture.

Gayle still has his 2 Triple TEST centuries to negotiate with !

Sammy has nothing.

Ramdin is NOT a # 6 !

Looks like another innings defeat coming up.

Check the scorecard of the last time WI played in Mumbai:

howstat.com/cricket/Statistics/Matches/M...d.asp?MatchCode=1634

The great man scored 54 and 36 NOT OUT in that test in 2002.

Hope he gets a NOT OUT in 2013 at Wankhede.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 10:28)(10:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
