West Indies 'caught off guard' by New Zealand assault - Bravo

West Indies' captain Dwayne Bravo has admitted to his team being "caught off guard" by the New Zealand batsmen's assault in the third ODI, in Queenstown. The game was on the verge of being called off due to the weather, but the teams got in 21 overs each, with New Zealand powering to 283 for 4 - an innings that included the fastest and sixth-fastest ODI tons ever.

new year begins like the last one ended..west indies caught off guard!

how can you be a professional team playing internationally and get caught off guard in a 5 game series which is not officially over until the fat lady sings?

well you can be so caught, after one victory in the first game and you behave as if you have won the series already and talk yourself into into an overconfidence that puts you off your guard.

that is why I did not check into that game last night after I was later and the runs began to flow like water.  I could see what was happening, how it would turn out and I did not bother to go over there.

Bravo just signed a contract that places him as a rep of some big money entry into cricket.  he better mind he does not talk himself out of it by his repeated and loud stupidity

300 plus runs in 21 overs....what is that! ::confused::

pure, naked over confidence from all the jackass talk between the games.

what I would really like to see and hear is much, much less of Dwayne Bravo as west indies captain in ODI!  he must just STFU and do his work as leader consistently.  he is giving Sammy a reprieve with his jackassness.

Maybe Bravo himself needs lessons in how to think and comport himself?

Bravo surely needs lessons in how to approach a job as captain..a whole effing job!  and only chat when it is done..holding the fort until it is all over and achieved.

I bet this turns out as west indies surrendering the initiative and that we never come close during the next 2 remaining games.

Jackass captain Bravo.  I dont even want to see the mans face so pissed I am.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
