West Indies Domestic Cricket

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Yep, Dave only got one wicket.

Lara hasn't played for T&T since 2004. I can only recall him playing a handful of games over the last 5 years or so. Of that handful, he's probably only had a couple of outstanding innings.

Trinidad and Tobago vs Guyana
Toss: T&T

Guyana 1st 346
Ramnaresh Sarwan 122
Travis Dowlin 53
Shivnarine Chanderpaul 44

[honestbharani]

so Lara is a virtual opener EVEN in domestic cricket?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

He's on 106 now. Esuan Crandon has 5 wickets and has beaten Lara a few times (after having Lara dropped on 2 yesterday). Daren Ganga (62) was bowled offstump without a shot and Dwayne Bravo was bowled legstump for 5.

Lara looking like he wants to impose himself upon these bowlers now.

 

[aussie]

liam that game is on radio or something?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Denesh Ramdin stealing the show now. Playing beautifully.

It's on radio and TV.

can't have stolen it that much?

 

[superkingdave]

with Dave batting at no10, Lara should probably make 250 here.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

can't have stolen it that much?

The best knock of 25 you'll ever see. He played some gorgeous shots, and I generally reserve the word "gorgeous".

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Guyana 1st 346

Trinidad and Tobago 1st 398
Brian Lara 153
Daren Ganga 62
Reyad Emrit 55 not out - a very impressive medium-fast bowler with some definite batting ability... he played brilliantly in this game
Denesh Ramdin 25
Dwayne Bravo 9

Esuan Crandon 7/125 - he bowled his heart out... impressive bowler, but if he could get a bit more pace into his game, he'd be much better.
Mahendra Nagamootoo 2/122

 

[Pratters]

Brian Lara! And you are all over Emrit, Liam. Promoting him wherever you can.

Ganga at 60 means he didn't convert another one into some thing big.

 

[honestbharani]

Ominous signs for NZ, I would have thought.

 

[Tim]

Well you've always got to watch out for Brian Lara!

 

[honestbharani]

Actually, I am sure even you kiwis wouldn't mind watching Lara score a few hundreds as long as the rest of his team play the way they have been playing....

Go Dave! Go Dave! Go Dave!

 

[Majin]

Ryan Hinds hit two 150+ Centuries in his match, didn't he? That's some achievement. Isn't he young still, too?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

24 years old but has 7 years of experience.

On a less related note, Trinidad and Tobago trying to look as rubbish as ever...
