Tommorow is going to be an interesting day.
Hopefully the black caps can hold on to their wickets for a draw.
It is interesting that the biggest threats to the black cap batsmen seem to be carl hooper and sarwan. From what I saw on tele thismorning sarwan is a better legspin prospect than Nagamootoo. He has more variations and gives the ball more air.

yup it will be an intersting day , although i feel its going to be a draw :P You never know at times like these N.Z could post a good total and declare :P

Astle & McMillan are still there, if they knock up 150 runs quickly I wonder if Fleming is game enough to consider losing the series to possibly win the series 2-0.

Im not so sure, I think thats a tactic you should only lose if your extremely desperate

Wel, we'll have to see about McMillan because he has stitches in his hand.

Styris could knock up some quick runs if needed so It could be interesting. I can't see a result though

Kimbo · 02-07-2002, 03:25 AM

don't you reckon its so cool how all the crowd in the windies is dancing and stuff the whole time. looks like a wicked atmosphere. best i've seen because its pretty friendly.

lord_of_darkness · 02-07-2002, 05:34 AM

i reckon the best sight is 1) the BARMY ARMY

:P 2) Games played in Indian stadiums when the stadiums are jam packed and the atmosphere is absolutely wicked.

the thing i liked about seeing the west indies crowds was that it was all friendly. they were just there to have fun and suooort their team. crowds like the barmy army spend more time putting down the opposition than supporting their own side.
it just looked like so much fun in the crowd.
