Ind Vs Wi Match Thread

[Legend Killer Harshit]

First topic message reminder :

Discuss here about Ind vs WI Series,2011 in detail(only international matches(T20,ODI,TEST))
Preview:

Well, this series would have been mind blowing if there was Sunil Gavaskar on one side and Garner,Roberts , Holding, Marshall on other side.

India has a well balanced side in their home condition whereas West Indies struggle, to make a stable team continues.
Last time when India toured windies, there was some fearsome bowling by Rampaul and Edwards which destroyed the Indian batting line up although West Indies lost the series.
India will be clear favorite once again inspite that sachin,sehwag are coming back after injury.
The world is waiting for Sachin to score his 100th 100.Probably it will happen in this series.
Looking at the West Indies squad, only Samuels and Chanderpaul has played tests in India.
Ofcourse Chanderpaul will have that fond memory of scoring 100 at Eden Garden's in 2002 series which helped West Indies to avoid a whitewash.
West Indies is the only team who has the best record in India as comapred to other teams.Ofcourse all know why it is???

Current ICC Rankings:
Test:
India(Rank-3, Matches-37, Overall Points-4336, Rating Points-117)
West Indies (Rank-7, Matches-26, Overall Points-2286, Rating Points-88 )
ODI:
India (Rank-3, Matches-39, Overall Points-4603, Rating Points-118)
West Indies (Rank-8, Matches-22, Overall Points-1711, Rating Points-78)

This is the dress rehearsal for India before they take on Australia in Australia(3rd most awaited series of the year)

On behalf of Cricism All The Best to both teams.

Player of the match
R Ashwin (India)

India led the 3-match series 1-0

[Deep Dey]

RP Singh was the last indian before Ashwin who got Player of the match award on debut in test

[Deep Dey]

Ashwin the 3rd spinner to take 9 or more wickets in a debut match since 1950, after Hirwani and Krejza


We saw the fate of hirwani and kreja. lets see what happens to ashwin

[Legend Killer Harshit]

haha i just noe abt kreza

[Ishaq]

same here

[Legend Killer Harshit]

deep will tell wait till he comes

[Deep Dey]

I have come and I will tell you all whats it is about.

Narendra Hirwani(Spinner) of India took 16 wickets in his debut test.
Thats still a world record for best bowling figures in a match.

That match was played in india

The moment he went outside India to play he faded away completely.

[Legend Killer Harshit]

bt his start was very gud ! need some appreciation fr tat
bt wt happnd in other countries?

[Deep Dey]

Hirwani averaged 16 in India with his bowling.

But in nzl, he averaged 57
in west indies it was 51
in england 65

[Legend Killer Harshit]

waah! then they shud hv made him play in india only at least

[Deep Dey]

@harshit
It was not possible as Bhajji rised at that point only and India had Kumble and Venkatpathy Raju already as a spinners

[Legend Killer Harshit]

okayyy tat means u r talking abt 1990s ?

[Deep Dey]

@Harshit

Yes

[Legend Killer Harshit]

okay
btw u r spamming :p

[Deep Dey]

Shocker from Kolkata

two days before the Test, Kolkata's Telegraph reported that only 324 tickets had been sold at ticket counters until then.

I dont know how much people will come here.

65000 capacity ground and only 324 tickets sold
