THESE WERE SHIV'S LAST 4 TEST SCORES AT WINDSOR PARK
116*, 68, 69, 108
* The 68 and 68 were against Australia.
* But Lloyd and Simmons were adamant that Shiv must never play for the WI again.
AUS 272/9 ---lead = 124*
Vogues 114*
* [size=14pt]It's an absolute delight to see the West Indies and their fans SUFFER in this test match[/size].

* [size=14pt]That's right! MURDERATION for West Indies. They celebrated kicking Shiv out of their team. Now the great Aussies are MURDERING their rasses.
[/size]
* By the way, congrats again to Berbice Bishoo. At least he will not be kicked off the WI team by those nasty, stinking cretins Lloyd and Simmons in his next test if he is fit.

;D [size=18pt]Some WI fans at Windsor Park are calling for WI selectors to be fired.[/size]
* They should also call Coach Simmons to be fired.

COMMENT ON CRICINFO COMMENTARY
Quote:[size=14pt]Aaditey: "Chanderpaul is the best thing happened to Windies cricket in the last 2 decades along with Brian Lara. It seems like he can play for a couple of more years. Its just about finding form. Age is just a number. He's fit and fine. ".

* That is 100% correct, but previous West Indies defeats were not celebrated with joy. From henceforth all West Indies defeats will be joyfully celebrated.

Lol,thats a bit too much hatred according to me.I understand your feelings for chander
,but yeah he is not losing anything,its the team thats losing him.Had he been there he would have dropped sheet anchor atleast yesterday.
If my memory is to be believed,i remember him grinding Aus bowling attacks with ease.
