4th and Final Test: West Indies v India at QPO

Best bowling figures (innings) : 9/95, by West Indian Spinner Jack Noreiga !

native Trini  ....never heard from again

With overcast condition s and the possibility of rain (now actual rain) Holder decide to bat. And some think he's learning as a captain. Does he not know that fast bowlers can actually use such conditions to their advantage?

not really, You can see the turf being dug by the spiked boot as they run in !

Shami footing is all messed up

Bhuvi got a warning for running on the Pitch

Ishant got lucky.

Since 2000, teams batting last at QPO have won 4, lost 5, drawn 2. Overall batting average in 4th inns since 2000 is 26.69. 3rd innings batting average over this same period is 27.41. So there has been very little advantage to bowling last.

Still raining. The wait continues.......

Guyana dry, dry ! 

2.00pm Indian players have their feet up in the dressing room, twiddling their thumbs.

Play has been called off for the day. .

Umpires Rod Tucker and Nigel Llong have just finished an inspection.

They're unhappy with the drying process.

"Infield is extremely soft, which isn't a good sign," Tucker says.

The next inspection will be at 1.00pm.

Players are at the hotel.

Time for lunch !
