Virat Kohli: India cricket ‘came together nicely’ in Test demolition of West Ind

"We were really eager to get going in this series," said a delighted Indian captain Virat Kohli, whose double century led his side’s batting, after the match.

"Everything came together nicely, from the batting performance to dismissing the West Indies twice. We went with three seamers because of the amount of grass on the wicket and it worked for us."

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Dont read too much into it, Virat !

Chairman of Selectors hail from Barbados:

so he stacked the squad with 5 of his countrymen !

Your real "demolition" were the guys from Barbados national XI:

whom were beaten BY Guyana in the regional championship twice in a row.  ;)

Barbados began the final round needing to win to have a chance of toppling Guyana

at the top of the table, and they did everything they had to do.

But Guyana did the same, and so Barbados finished second.


Prize award !!

Look at that mighty beard on Kohli.

When a young man grows a beard like that, it means he's entered a state of Zen-like focus.

Yeah but he is misguided in celebrating a Bajan  "demolition" ::LOL::

Please advise him that was NOT a W.I. squad chosen on Performance:

with BOTH Bat and ball...

That's true. He didn't really face a strong attack. He only faced Gabriel, our most threatening bowler, for a handful of deliveries, and only scored 10 runs off him.

I'd love to see Kohli tour England again whilst Anderson and Broad are at their peak. It will be interesting to see if they're able to dominate him again, or if he's adapted and improved.

I believe India play about 18 months of home games after this WI tour, so Kohli's likely to make mountains of runs over the next 2 years.

Cricket is a uncertain game and the current wins would mean nothing if in the future the Indian team loses. Many a players and teams have fallen because of resting on their past laurels, lets just hope this Indian squad is on the same path and they are actually able to realize the strength of the west indies and play accordingly.

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
