Stars just not aligning for India.
Yeah, Zaheer too, although he is injured a fair bit of the time.

Lot of teams getting the injury bug, wonder how many players are out?

Still been a cracker of a tournament in stark contrast to 07's poorness.

3rd ever in ODI cricket apparently

Keeper at the start of the match anyway.

The second was quite funnily a member of this West Indian team a little over two months ago... Got 2 wickets against Bangladesh.

He probably knows that the news from Centurion isn't good for team India.

Well, he's only played a handful of List A matches in domestic cricket, so it was ridiculous of the WICB to throw Kieran Powell to the wolves at the age of just 19....

The only good thing about this match is that it should be the last time we see Reifer's men masquerading as the West Indies....

I think we will see the following on the tour of Australia:

Roach - 152.9 kph today and easily the fastest bowler in this tournament
Sammy - solid performer and Hunte's buddy too
Dowlin - performed well and will probably be the reserve middle order batsman.
Tonge - Has good attributes as a fast medium bowler/workhorse
Miller - must surely be ahead of Benn

I feel sure we will see Powell again in the future and Bernard Jr hasn't done himself any harm. Reifer, Devon Smith and Dale RIchards will hoepfully never play for the West Indies again.

My squad to tour Australia with no idea who will captain the team...

Gayle
Barath
Sarwan
Bravo
Shiv
Nash
Dowlin
Morton (back up opener)
Ramdin
Sammy - rewarded for being a scab, not really performance
Taylor
Edwards
Roach
Tonge
Miller - rewarded for scabbing and performance, moves ahead of Benn
