Poor shot by Baugh....

He's in the side to make runs, because his keeping's not better than Ramdin's. At this rate, Baugh will soon be out of the side.

well exactly! its spinning ball, you have to be on top of it totally to hit it away for 4. yu have to hit it away from from the fieldsman.

it was overpitched and there to be hit but how! yuh cyar jess rush into wham!!! and hit it stright to the fieldsman.

dat shows dat Baugh is not thinking about what he is doing, does not have a picture of the field in his mind, he jess goes out and bats and dats dat!

between he and ramdin here is no difference with the bat and with the head apparently. westindies is in the market for a keeper! desperately so! now if skansh coud keep he might have a chance with me

shive stick around and eke out runs.

sammy mus' defend the balls dat cant be hit. and the few dat cyan be, he mus' go after them full blow and hit high, low and wide of fieldsmen. we need about 37 more runs!

I must say, I was never a fan of Shiv but he has impressed me with his concentration on this pitch. He must stay as long as possible to help West Indies avoid embarrassment.
