SL really stepping on in here, WTH were they doing the rest of the tournament

 

[Spark]

Man, SL look fun. They're obviously still some distance off being competitive at the top but the talent actually looks there.

Think this tournament has come maybe a year or two too early for them

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

This is surely the coming of age for the next generation of SL cricketers. They are so ****ing talented. Nissanka, Asalanka, Rajapakshe....

 

[smash84]

yeah, nissanka and asalanka for sure look pretty good for the future

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Someone wanted Wanindu in...Look at what Dasun is doing!

20 off 8 so far

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Good knock Asalanka

What the **** was up with selecting Rampaul? He's just way too slow and innocuous. A man worthy of playing for England, sure but not West Indies.

He had decent tournaments in Super50 and CPL...and was in the selector's plan in assembling the oldies team.

We have so many other options: Odean, Shepherd, Drakes...

 

[trundler]

Limp finish that, trying too much. Would've been better off just trying to clear the leg side.

 

[slippy888]

west indies need to win this by the 15th over to increase there net run rate with a boost, it not likely to happen is it

 

[BoyBrumby]

Near perfect jinxing from Sammy there.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Batting on past exploits is not gonna win you games that are in the present.

Sir Curtly knew what he was saying...

 

[slippy888]

Windies have match winners with the bat all the way to number 10, so they have to play natural game

look more likely to play naturist game

 

[slippy888]

Pooran is world class standard batsman

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Chase is kinda weak against pace in Tests, let's see how this goes against Chameera.

 

[BoyBrumby]

That's quite the snaffle from Rajapakse.

Chase got all of it and it was seriously travelling.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Pooran made a 100 against SL in 2019 WC. So far he doesn't look good for another one.

"Great glimpses of the talent that is oozing from this side..."

Commentary in the year 2021. Making talent sound like pus.
