Carey proving he’s a better Test player than Inglis

 

[Kuuz]

Sinclair going at high T20 econ rates

 

[Plugger35]

Sinclair's batting looked a lot better than his bowling, even Viv looked more dangerous than him when he bowled his part time offies.

 

[norway blue]

He’s not really bowling one thing or another at the moment. Either dart them in and give them nothing or toss them high

Derek Underwood . Increase the pace. Try something.

Yep. Target the stumps, make them at least play with some degree of caution

 

[1990crow]

South Australia to the rescue

 

[ams4crows]

Carey is in full T20 mode here it's like he's just going heck it I'm going after everything

 

[The 747]

I can occasionally laugh at (not with) his cringey jokes. Waugh is just insufferable

Yeah agree with that. His commentary feels like he looks up from the form guide when prodded and gives a hot take on what's happening.

It has no consistency with other things he says and often little basis in fact. Rubbish commentator.

 

[BGman]

bat for another 50 overs to have a chance

Just hang on til about over 30 when the life goes out of this pink Kooka.

50 Alex Carey. A vital knock when most needed. Played a sumptuous lofted six too to bring it up.

 

[KennyHuntersBlues]

After 15-20 overs these pink balls stop moving at all off the pitch and it becomes real easy to bat

You can clearly tell Mark Waugh doesn't watch much cricket at all, doesn't seem to have any idea of the goings on of the game, who the other teams are etc, why would you have his as a commentator then? get someone who is interested in the game.

 

[GrommoT]

Time to look at the bails they use. Ball hits the stumps that should be enough. We'll take it this time though...lol.

 

[norway blue]

It’s exciting to watch this all unfold. It sure is a test. .

Windies need a wicket

 

[SportsCentre]

smoked that one

 

[Plugger35]

It's always been a weakness for the Windies not having a decent test spinner, the last one I can remember was Sulieman Benn.

They didn't need a decent test spinner in the 80s when their 4 man pace bowling attack would demolish teams.

Pretty sure Brad McNamara is a producer at Fox so he just gets all his mates to commentate like Junior and Haddin even though they're woeful

 

[Jamurp]

Wheels falling off for the Windies here, desperately need a wicket.

 

[largebus]

Windies are getting Kezball'd, only this time the victories aren't moral ones.

 

[norway blue]

Carey could open I reckon. And keep.

It's odd, they have heap and heaps in first class but they all seem to struggle to make the step up.
