Dis will be a NIGHTMARE fuh CLAPPO and GIBBO

Squad for first Test: M S Dhoni (capt & wk), Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman, Yuvraj Singh, R Ashwin, Pragyan Ojha, Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav, Virat Kohli, Varun Aaron, Ajinkya Rahane, Rahul Sharma

Well de WI fans were complaining on the squad that was sent to the WI earlier this year and BCCI oblige and give de WI what they ask for....what I see is lots of sunning and bowlers refusing to bowl....Hope Sammy can deliver a series DRAW for the WI.... :lol: :lol: :lol:

The Home team select their squad but the WI is yet to select their squad to TOUR!!! Should I say "What a Shame"? :lol: :lol: :lol:

On a side note, it looks like Lil B and Kohli would likely get a chance for a head to head clash... :lol: :lol: :lol:

LIl B and Kohli already went "head to head" you skunt and guess who lost? KOHLI!! :lol: , on a serious note that batting order is a nightmare to deal with, that's why i pray Sammy gets dropped and i hope Narine gets a chance, Ishanti Sharma is carrying an injury so i don't believe he will be 100% fit, and another surprise is there is no Praveen Kumar? :shock: he was their best bowler in England so that's a bit of a shock,

Not long ago NZ drew the first two Tests of a three match series before losing the last one, so they got very close to taking something from that series, in the second Test they had India 15/5..but somehow let them off the hook and allowed Singh to score a ton and take them above 200, we're up against it but anything can happen imo.

Yes, the batting line-up in that India squad looks formidable.

yes, Strong!... Do you reckon that our bowling is good enough to bowl them up twice?

The thing that can give us hope is their batting line-up sure didn't look that great in England!!..yes i know it's different conditions and all but some of their batting was ridiculous, the one i hate facing the most is Dravid, when he gets in it's very hard work to get rid of him, our bowling unit has been quite good over the past year but they will need to step up a gear or two if we have any plans on bowling them out twice, we will see what mood they are in tomorrow.

That's a serious batting lineup....

The only players missing from that squad are Harbhajan and Praveen.

AFRO i get your drift but i am seeing more and more that home advantage is a big factor and so i think that WI will have to win the games through sustained superior performances in all departments rather than India losing.
