http://www.espncricinfo.com/west-indies-...21775.html

Ramdin declared with 108 runs Behind .  :-\

Some kinda strategy to take advantage of a silly Bowling points system !

Mervyn Matthew is a good Reggae singing name  :-[

4 wickets against the Steel Pan boys :

                           

Ramdin PICONG him by declaring 108 runs behind and avoiding his 5-Fer 

WWI 126/4 (41 Overs) & 248. T&T 140/8 Dec. Lesporis 12, Currency 3. Lead: 234. Yeah, nice and tight from the T&T bowlers

WWI 148/5 & 248. Lesporis c Ramdin b Khan 26. Good catch from Ramdin. Good ball from Khan as well. Good innings ended.

WWI 150/6 (48.2 Overs) & 248. Currency st Ramdin b Khan 10. Down the track, misses, Ramdin does what he does best.

Windwards 194/7

plus that 108 runs Lead ...

Tough 4th Innings chase . Hope Ramdin knows what he doing !

1. No points are allotted for going past the oppositions first inning score.

2. How is it brilliant to declare at a whopping 106 runs behind an opponent with 2 1/2 days to go ?

3. It would have been brilliant if WWI had succumbed to 56/6batting second, but now the lead is 194 with 8 wickets standing.

4. Rain has created problems, but if WWI now at 88/2 bats on to 250 then they will pick up 3 battingadditional points, thus making Ramdin's declaration even more foolish

5. You do realize that WWI's strength is their bowling ? If T&T struggle to make 200 in the first inning, do we really expect them to make 300 chasing last ??

T&T 16/0 140/8 Dec. WWI 231 & 248. Simmons 14, Lewis 1. Need: 324. Nicely guided away for 4 by Simmons. Picked the 3rd Man gap.
