Clarke said what happened
Root made a racist remark and Warner skelped him
West Indies coach Phil Simmons has been sacked.
He’d be welcome back here.
Not surprised. He sacked courtney walsh recently and he was very pissed off about it
Scary to say but he had probably much better working conditions here than in what was once the worlds foremost Cricketing region.
I loved the West Indies side of Richards, Holding, Richie Richardson, Haynes and my favourite of the lot Malcolm Marshall. What a tragedy that has befallen them, its terrible for the Sport as a whole.
Interesting 4th day in the first test of the Pakistan v Windies series in Dubai. Pakistan had declared on 579/3 with Azhar Ali top scoring on 302 not out. Windies were bowled out for 357 early this morning. Pakistan in the space of 8 overs collapsed from 93-3 to 123 all out, Bishoo taking 8 wickets. Windies with a target of 346 were 95/2 at stumps.
2 sessions for the Mullahs to get six wickets. Darren Bravo hanging in there gamely still.
228/6 - 118 runs needed for the Windies. Bravo has just brought up his century.
Pakistan have got the big wicket of Bravo. 271/7. 75 runs needed still. 22 overs left. Last three wickets will surely fall quickly enough from here.
England having a tough day in the first test in Bangladesh. Currently they are 165/5 but they were 31/3 and 106/5. Moeen and Bairstow steadying the ship.
258/7 at the close. Goodish recovery. Some young fella for Bangladesh took 5 wickets on debut, aged 18.
Spinner? I presume not as it’s day 1
Spinner
They’ve obviously prepared the pitch. Spinners tend to come and go a bit more often as many get figured out. This lad must be good though if he’s playing at that age.
It’s Bangladesh, pitches always spin there. It’s like India only there are more muslims.
There’s actually more Muslims living in India. But Bangladesh is a Muslim country.
that’s what I meant, %-wise
Just saw some brief highlights on Sky news there, why did Bangladesh not ask for a review when Moeen was plumb?
There are 20 million Roman Catholics in India.
Did not see any of it. But I think there were good shouts against Moeen three or four times today?
