  • "There used to be a bloke who gave himself out by walking when he'd hit the ball. The popularity of that within his team-mates may be shown by the fact that since his retirement, they no longer reply to any emails, phone calls or text messages."
    Adam Gilchrist gives a tongue-in-cheek response to his own philosophy of 'walking'

    West Indies v India, 4th Test, 3rd day

    By Will 2 years ago, at the start of July, Comments

    Fascinating Test match at Kingston. West Indies wrapped things up pretty quickly to dismiss India for 171. That left Windies 269 but they’ve already lost four - including Brian Lara and Shiv Chanderpaul.

    All is not lost, as Ramnaresh Sarwan - the guts of the side, as far as I’m concerned; the real bare-knuckled streetfighter - is still there on 43, and they need another 164 to win. One thing’s certain: it won’t be a draw.

    Money’s on India, but COME ON Windies! Live scorecard.

    Update: bugger. Sarwan gone for 51.

    West Indies v India, 3rd Test

    By Will 2 years ago, at the end of June, Comments

    Now then, now then, now then. The West Indies are racing along in the third Test, which has been good to watch. After Daren Ganga and Ramnaresh Sarwan both brought up their hundreds, India struck back to reduce the West Indies from 346 for 1 to 420 for 5. Regardless, a fairly splendid effort from West Indies (who we like, lots, here down the Corridor. Get down with the Corridor, in fact).

    The series is level at 0-0 with one further Test to play after this one, which looks like rain could force a premature end.

    Sarwan sinks India

    By Will 2 years ago, at the end of May, Comments

    As I’ve said far too many times, I’m a big West Indies fan and it was brilliant to see them sink India yesterday thanks to Ramnaresh Sarwan. Come on, Windies! Ryan reckons he’s coming of age, is Sarwan…

    I didn’t see any of his innings, for reasons which I’ll explain later this week, but by all reports it was pretty damn fine.

    Chanderpaul resigns as West Indies captain

    By Scott 2 years ago, mid-April, Comments

    He’s made the move to concentrate on his batting. That is probably a good move- when he was in Australia last summer, he was a shadow of his fomer self. West Indies will have to think long term about his replacement. I’d bet on Ramnaresh Sarwan if forced to guess.
