Cant blame Gayle for that


Agreed that Shai too is a slow starter.

Shai too is similar to Gayle. He started slow against Bangladesh with sr of 70 for first 20 overs or so and made slightly better than run a ball ton iirc. He too has to improve his sr.

Career sr of 72 is very very low

Rashid gets Gayle, making morgans decision from the last game even worse

West indies have basically already lost this game, even if they fly from here and get 320 they will still probably lose

Hope career sr 72
Bravo career sr 69

That was slow 20 years ago let alone now

Gayle out for 50 from 62.

Shai Hope and Darren Bravo have it all to do themselves now.

rested!

I think they are still worried about his fitness and don't want to overdo him

Gayle must be closing in on 10,000 runs, by now

Good shot by Shimron. :clap Short one by Mooen and he made good use of the crease to move back and loft it over deep mid wicket for 6.

Can't leave out Plunkett or Woakes in my view. Their SRs have been phenomenal. You need that on flat tracks, even if you go for runs. EVERYONE ELSe is fighting for one spot. Ten places are inked in.

If Rashid is picking up wickets with his fielding, then you know everything is going well.
