*Official* Australia Tour of West Indies 2025

Fielding has been absolutely pathetic. You can't be dropping that many catches, especially when the risk is high of chasing a stiff total against the fearsome Australian bowling lineup. If you can't take your chances, you don't deserve to be the winner. Full stop.

I might be a bit harsh, but teams need to start including fielding quality as a criteria for selecting or dropping players. It often gets overlooked

1-2 dropped catches (especially tougher ones) an innings is around par in test cricket. But this is far too many by WI.

114-4 @SillyCowCorner1

 

[slowfinger]

that will probably be the game for the Windies

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Can we make it to 10 dropped catches? Surely

Those averages tho…

Batting seems to be getting easier now. Some good signs to come for the Windies? It will still be tough, given the Australian bowling and their pathetic batting. But it doesn't seem as much of a minefield so far as it was in the last 2 days or so.

Webster now one of the first picked surely for the Ashes.

These dropped catches are going to turn out to be expensive.

Going to?

They've cost us the game.

Had to be an "India News" handle. ****ing grifters.

I think the West Indies have erred by not bowling a few bouncers at Head this morning.

Preaching to the choir.

Chase has no right at 1st to the spinners, but because Greaves seems to have forgotten how to catch in the 2nd innings, it throws off everything, plus I would imagine Campbell's catching is one possible reason he was brought back. This needs to improve

West Indies won't make 200 on this deck

That was a horrible delivery to get, nothing Head could do about that but he's played a match winning innings you reckon with that 61
