Re: Squad for ODI's v West Indies

An easy day for us chasing only 71. The Windies have been very poor for a while now.

We still have to bat and I am never confident, even with a small total to chase.

What a start to the first over we are 0/18.

Finch is unlucky, no hotspot yet is given out. I don't get it.

Great bowling from Starc .
Pitch the ball up and get wickets.

I'd feel robbed if I paid for a ticket, I feel robbed myself knowing channel nine will probably program a Steven Seagal movie tonight...

Man of the match.

Nice 51no from Maxwell, will do his confidence alot of good.

The Windes were terrible today. They have really gone downhill and don't seem like they are going to improve any time soon. It will be a long way back for them.

After a poor start we're looking like posting a competitive score on the back of some good batting (and some luck) by Bailey and Faulkner.

George Bailey. Great performance and hitting out in the final over with 25 off the last over. It was looking touch and go whether he was going to ton up, and he's ended with 125. Outstanding effort.

266 is very defendable!

I've been a vocal critic of Bailey as an international cricketer but today was the knock of a man I'd want on the plane to india

I can't believe he is not even a reserve batsman for the tour. Should be ahead of others in the squad. Great knock today in any event.

I think I have mentioned this before but Bailey typically answers the challenges presented to him. With Watson only intending to go to India for one game due to then impending birth of his first child then we need to have a quality leader like Bailey in the squad.

You've got one up on me there GVG, you've backed him all the way through, I had him holed as an average first class player toying with international cricket but today was an innings of class.

How can the DRS be kept when decisions like that are being made? What evidence was there? We've moved the human error from the pitch up to the third umpires room

So Sunil Narine just hit Maxwell for four consecutive sixes...India will do shocking things to this tripe

Bailey has stepped up. He impressed me a bit in the last 20/20 v SL. He really kept us up there after the rain delay.

I'm guessing it was the white mark on the glove?
Still not enough to over turn the original decision.
