Confident of doing well against India: Devendra Bishoo
by Cricbuzz Staff • Last updated on Thursday, 14 July, 2016, 10:59 AM

Devendra Bishoo, the West Indies legspinner, has said he's eager to have a good series in the four-match Test series against India, having last played a Test in 2015, against Sri Lanka in Colombo.

Bishoo acknowledged that he's ready and prepared to bowl long spells. "I am up for it," he said on Wednesday (July 13). "I know I will have to bowl long spells and get wickets ... I really want to have a good series. I want to have an excellent series."

The last time Bishoo played against India in 2011, he ended up with seven wickets in Jamaica. The legspinner, understandably, took confidence from his previous performances going into the series.

"I did well against India when they were here in the Caribbean back in 2011," he reflected. "The memories are always there. I took seven wickets in the match in Jamaica - and I'm confident of doing well again.

"We're a young team and we know it will be a hard series, but we are fully aware of what is required," he said. "Everybody is up for it and we are coming along very well. So far this year West Indies have performed well in the short formats ... we want to continue that good work."

India will take on West Indies in the first of the four Tests in Antigua starting on July 21.

I am really looking forward to seeing him bowl.


I think he is a tenacious allround cricketer and still hope he is managed well.


Bit disappointed the squad has bits and pieces spinners to support him and the seam attack looks quite flimsy.


Clearly, on this occasion, I would want Windies to do well but I cannot see India losing.


As MAPPIPPEE says kohli might break Lara's record.


Would you be seeing any of the games?

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches. This is not about our players, administrators, or any individual; it is an entire system that is failing, and together, all of us must fix it now. This cannot continue into another series; we must not allow it to.(15.07.2025, 14:52)(14:52)0
