Windies won the toss and elected to field first.
England: Strauss, Flintoff, Pieterson, Shah, Collingwood, Bopara, Prior, Batty, Mascarenhas, Broad and Anderson. I thought Batty might have made way for Flintoff rather than Harmison.
Windies: Gayle, Simmons, Sarwan, Chanderpaul, Pollard, Bravo, Sammy, Ramdin, Miller, Baker and Edwards.
-
they shoulda bat first.
-
now check cricinfo and they say rain delay.

one of the links on this page should work:

45-over per side. 10-0 after 3 and already some action with Bopara ducking into an Edwards delivery, 4 byes off of another Edwards over that soared over Ramdin's outstretched glove.
-
they shoulda bat first.
Really?
-
Looking like we did the right thing to field first. In the 11th over and it is 33/2. The bowlers have kept it tight. Shah is taking some chances and looks likely to be out soon.
-
YES!!
Bravo gets Pietersen out caught on the boundary!
41/3
-
42/4!
SHah gone now
-
England like they eh wake up yet.
-
This thing is a joke! Flintoff gone!
43/5

Looks like that Pietersen interview has really hurt the morale of the England camp.

Pietersen-Moores conflict
Pietersen: 'I never had everything I wanted as captain'

Kevin Pietersen at a press conference, Chennai, December 10, 2008

England batsman Kevin Pietersen has admitted that the tumultuous events of the last few months over him quitting captaincy and the sacking of former coach Peter Moores had drained him mentally during the ongoing tour of the West Indies. In an interview to the Daily Mail, Pietersen opened up about the way he was treated as captain, saying he didn't always get what he wanted and the whole experience caused a lot of hurt to him and his family.
Pietersen failed to establish a proper working relationship with Moores and the rift between the two cost the coach his job. Pietersen, however, insisted that the team atmosphere has been sound all tour, despite the sudden personnel changes now with Andrew Strauss and Andy Flower stepping in as captain and interim coach.
"What happened in January (quitting from captaincy) drained me mentally and I know people have been watching me and talking about me throughout this tour," he told the paper. "It's been a heck of a tough time and I'm at the end of my tether now. Really and truly I can't wait to get home.
"I liked the way the guys played under me and the approach that we had, but I never had everything I wanted as England captain. That's the thing that gets me. My England captaincy was not the England captaincy I wanted, that's what will live with me for a long time.
"There was a lot of hurt for me and my family at the way it ended and a lot of what was written was unfounded, but the bad feelings don't linger. I wouldn't have done anything differently with the benefit of hindsight because I did everything by the book. Straussy got what I wanted but good luck to him because he's a top man. I know he'll make the most of it."
He added that he had made a conscious effort all tour to allow Strauss to make his own decisions and will perhaps offer advice during the Ashes this summer.
"I haven't offered much advice on this tour to Strauss nor have I been asked for it," Pietersen said. "It's been too close to the bone in terms of what happened in January and that has made it difficult for me to get involved in decisions.
'I haven't wanted to step on his toes. I'd rather let him get on with it and do what he needs to do. Maybe in the summer it will be time for me to voice my opinion a bit more but for now I'm keeping myself to myself."
He also insisted that he would never consider captaincy again. "It's not somewhere I want to go and dive into," he said. "After the way I was let down I just don't think I want to get involved in that again."

Now there is both praise and criticism for two exalted members of the opposition who have provided pain in November in Antigua and now on this tour. 'I've loved playing against Chris Gayle,' he says. 'He's funny and relaxed but he's a real competitor. He's a comedian with a heart of gold and this series has been played in a real good spirit.'
But there's a 'but'. 'Shiv Chanderpaul has been fantastic but one thing disappoints me about him,' says Pietersen. 'Every time he gets runs he never fields. There's always an injury or something. That has really got on my nerves here. It leads me to think he plays for himself.'
You could only wish you were a big player like Shiv, Pietersen.
I really enjoying this England beating

That's a really extraordinary claim. If anything, Chanderpaul has been one of the most selfless of the West Indies players and has always done whatever's been asked of him. Pietersen would be better off making this claim about any of the other West Indies players.
-
Hawkeye suggesting that the ball that got Collingwood out might have been missing leg. I did not see it myself, but even the commentators were suggesting that there might have been doubt. That's the game though.
22 overs completed 55-6.

I would also like to add that the fact that Pietersen chose to voice his personal grievances about the England team the day before a match also says a lot about his level of selfishness. If it were up to me, I wouldn't appoint him England captain for that reason alone

22 overs completed 55-6.
Yeah it was definitely doubtful. At first glance, it looked like it was heading down leg-side. But certainly not an egregious error - nothing to seriously get worked up about.
Bravo also had some LBWs that were not given earlier in the series that looked plumb. Such is the game.
-
Lawwwd England eh sure to make 100!
-
24.3 Pollard to Prior, OUT, oh that is truly village. Short and wide and slapped straight to point. Thoughtless stroke
69/7
-
Prior played an innocuous shot to get caught by Sammy and 2 balls later a great ball to find Broad's edge. England's previous lowest ODI total is 86. That is in danger at 68/8. Pollard produced a stunner there.
-
24.5 Pollard to Broad, OUT, got him! A little off-cutter which squares up Broad, whose feet were firmly concreted, and it scooted through low to the keeper
:wavetowel:
-
buss them up. :beermug:
-
The rain took them off the pitch, but even as they've come off the umpires are asking for the covers to come off. The rain has stopped for now, but they expect more interruptions. 71/8 after 26.2 overs is the latest. We'll see if this interruption affects the overs or if D/L comes into it.
-
time to get rid ah these last 2 wickets.
-
Fidel has helped them now to 88/8.
-
113/8. Batting power play is from over 40-43. Fidel has the 40th over.
-
gatty gone 116/9
-
Edwards gets his 3rd wicket, all via the pull shot. 117 all out. Just 41.3 overs batted by England... shocking stuff. Tied for their 15th lowest total set against Australia in Sydney back in 2003.
-
yay!! WI in a great position...now to stick in the screws to the english...
bois for them.. :applause:
-
now doh count egg in chicken bottom,allyuh know how WI stop.

-
Hurricane Gayle! Mascarena look like he want to cry after dat over yes, need some consolin :devil:
-
24 runs in that Mascarenhas over. Four 4s and six 6s so far in his knock. 50 came off of 27 balls. We need 40 to win from 36 overs. This is Twenty/20 stuff this is.
-
After 9 overs we are 91/1. England were 22/2 at this same point. I like this comment:
8.4 Anderson to Gayle, no run, slightly squared up out to the off side. Rubbish. Dot ball. Booooo

-
WC doh worry no wicket fall..mus be a typo by wolfman
-
Nah, I got over excited. ;D 94/0 is the correct score.
Gayle's still on for his hundred here. As long as Simmons doesn't do anything selfish, like score runs
These text commentators crack me up.
Like the guys heard David Lloyd, they're taking the batting power play.
-
WC doh worry no wicket fall..mus be a typo by wolfman
maybe he watchin ah nex match and ent kno it :devil:

:applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

just over 11 runs an over :o :o
-
Good comeback from Anderson - nice and full. But that was an innings of shock and awe from Gayle. Arrogant, breathless batting at its best and he's made England look forlorn, hopeless and really rather depressed.
-
where all dem english people goin (shown leaving their seats on the video) ???
sitdong an enjoy de cutarse like we nuh :devil: :devil:
and de crowd doh like the dot ball needa
-
Imagine with the threat of rain they've called for drinks. Then again, the pace Simmonds are Sarwan are going... plus we haven't even seen 20 Windies overs so if rain stops play now we can still have an abandonment.
They're back on now.
-
SHIT we go lorse :devil:
we need 66 runs from 38 overs ::)
well it looks like I will have to eat my words :devil: :devil:
117/2 and we have won

-

great exciting game :applause:
-
Fazeer have some serious flavour savers boy....well done Windies
-
Bravo is man ofthe match for his 7-1-19-4. Took us 15 overs to get what England took 42 to make.
-
WHO SAY SIX!
-
:applause: :applause:
-
Look like Eng. homesick. They ready to play Australia.
-
This is the worst performance I've ever seen of the WI.
:devil:
-
it good for England.

Steeuupps
I tell all of you that Gayle alone can knock off any England Score. They should be under 3-0 now.
