Tomorrow at QPO - ketchim - 08-17-2016
Our squad holds the KEY :
to whether India or Pakistan cop the #1 TEST ranking.
Re: Tomorrow at QPO - ketchim - 08-17-2016
How did this happen ?
Our squad playing a tour of India started with the ODIs and then 2 TEST
Our players led by Dwayne Bravo and incited by Pollard and Sammy:
WALK OFF THE JOB
during some kinda mis understanding with their PLAYER Representantive
Re: Tomorrow at QPO - ketchim - 08-17-2016
As a result India cricket Board LOST 41 million dollars.
other losses : Shiv Chanderpaul DENIED his 2 Tests or 4 at bats in TEST
to hold a w.i. aggregate runs RECORD
Re: Tomorrow at QPO - ketchim - 08-17-2016
So, what happened ?
West Indies could NOT afford to pay 41 million US dollars.
SO, a deal to play a 4 Test series was BARTERED
Re: Tomorrow at QPO - ketchim - 08-17-2016
By India calculation it would take 4 Tests to get them
the coveted # 1 RANK.
this backfired .....Why ?
they did not compute Pakistan 2-2 result with England.
Re: Tomorrow at QPO - ketchim - 08-17-2016
It is my hope just as Shiv Chanderpaul was DENIED the W.I. TEST Runs record
and Bravo Pollard and Sammy can NO longer wear our Maroon.
India should NOT get the #1 rank.
discuss

Re: Tomorrow at QPO - dillinger10 - 08-17-2016
Pakistan would be my choice for best Test team right now. They are the most complete all round team, and the only team with a winning record in overseas/neutral Test matches over the last 4 years. They have performed well in England and New Zealand, and dominated the opposition while playing in the UAE.
Overseas/neutral Test series over the last 4 years:
Pakistan: 4 wins (Sri Lanka, England, South Africa and Australia), 4 draws (England, New Zealand, South Africa, Sri Lanka) and 1 loss (Sri Lanka)
England: 2 wins (India and South Africa), 2 losses (Australia and Pakistan), and 1 draw (New Zealand)
Australia: 2 wins (South Africa and New Zealand) and 5 losses (England X2, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka)
India: 0 wins, 4 losses (South Africa, Australia, England and New Zealand)
