The Denigration of Bishoo

Better innings figures in Tests in UAE than Yasir Shah 8/41 ??

He bettered Devendra Bishoo 8/49 :
against Pakistan at the same venue two years ago.

56.1
Bishoo to Mithun, this was the googly; cleaned him up
Completely missed it, but the ball doesn't miss the stumps.
West Indies might feel a spark of hope again now

Mohammad Mithun b Bishoo 29

58.5
Bishoo to the Debutant, trapped in front ! holds its line and hits pad would have gone on to hit the stumps
End of a very good innings on debut.

Shadman Islam lbw Bishoo 76

158 overs bowled

Bishoo 28 ...........109 for 2 wickets
Chase 28.............111 for 1 wicket
Warrican 38...........91 for 2 wickets
Brathwaite 15........57 runs for 2 wickets

45 overs of Seam : Roach 2 wickets, Lewis 1 wicket

Okay Folks, we hav a WC coming up and Bishoo still in the squad !

That tired old adage, "catches win matches"
has not been proven in the first two fixtures of this series.

West Indies have been by far the worst offenders with seven dropped easy catches
to England's two across the first two matches
- that's being generous in not counting a couple more very tough chances
- and Ashley Nurse has put down at least three

West Indies dropped at least three critical catches in the second match but still managed to win by 26 runs

Holder's lament following the first match:
"We just didn't hold our chances and the chances we put down were crucial."[/quote]

I say DROP Bishoo : IF they cannot hold on to his Catches :whistle:
