2nd ODI: India v West Indies at Delhi

Samuels..?? I would say it was both russel and sammy..
One tried a big heave that was unneccesary and the other beaten.
they were just 65 runs short then and a full 8 overs to go,they needed just some calc risks.

65 in 8 overs isn't easy.

Samuels should have been taking singles. He put big pressure on batsmen who had no time to settle in.

Even shiv don't score like that

Congrats to Jerome Taylor on becoming the 15th West Indies bowler to take 100 or more ODI wickets.

He may have scored a majestic ton last ODI but there is a reason why after almost 160 ODIs, he averages mid 30s.This was the first ODI Windies played for arond 20 years that I sat and tried to watch all of it. I was impressed with the bowling and fielding generally and the application when batting was brilliant.I felt they understood all they had to do was tick over, rotate the strike around 5 rpo and it will be done.Then Samuels came in and then Sammy and the game was over.I am still unsure why Sammyn is n this team.He has to make way for Holder and if Russell, no cricketing brain, fails in the next game, get Blackwood in.Windies gifts this game to India.

currently playing a 4 day A team TEST around the Corner in Lanka ,where he Bowled 5 overs.

Leon Johnson however , is warming the bench :

I propose that 48 runs would have been Leon's
