Even my 7 year old son would and could have predicted this...Talk about stating the obvious...Sammy need to be a lot more AGGRESSIVE in his EXPEXTATIONS....like "If we play like we think we are capable of playing, WE WILL win this series".... :lol: :lol: :lol:

no matter wat AFRo say about Gibbo in the positive, westindies look to be in a mess to me.

from here the westindies camp in Bang seems to be disarray. westindies will not win a thing in this shape. we wud be lucky to get a decent, saving team performance

There had better be some improvements for the Second Test!
:twisted:
The WI performance in the first Test was one of the worst I'd ever seen....

I think that this will be Simmons last chance to prove that he belongs in test cricket...Lil B also need to come good...KB needs to play.

Don't wanna jinx anything but i've got a good feeling about this second Test, Bang was in their top form and still didn't win, if we hit top gear then they won't cope with us, it's as simple as that, personally i'm hoping Roach plays instead of Edwards, Fidel just too wasteful for my liking,

I'd rather look at the statistics instead of focusing on the coach so much, and the stats suggest that we drew the T20 series in England and beat Bang in the ODI series, also we've only lost one Test series out of the last three against teams ranked higher than us, all that whilst we continue to blood the youngsters, so needless to say i don't share your view Map :mrgreen: .

That's all well and good for Sammy to come out and say that, but maybe he should think about leading from the front, instead of putting the onus on the rest of the team.

Despite the interruptions during the first test, there's no doubt that the hosts had the better of the match and with a hundred-plus lead, could've really put us under the pump, had it not been for the rain. They just need to work harder as a collective unit and compete hard during every session of the second test. Any news on the fitness of Adrian Barath?
