* NZ will first make sure they can't lose this test.

* That means they will not declare until they surpass 400.

NZ 209/4

* LEAD 185

* 5 BOWLERS AND WI CANNOT DISMISS NEW ZEALAND IN A 2ND INNINGS.

Riddymon: "Not too sure what Ramdin's thinking is right now. He's letting Benn trundle in and bowl to a defensive field....NZ is getting easy singles (not to mention fours and sixes) and moving the score along while Holder has hardly been bowled and he was VERY dangerous yesterday. He should be bowling now alongside Roach or taylor with an aggressive field. Show some impetus to take wickets!"

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

what the hell can Ramdin do.  his bowlers cant cut it..not even 5 of them

the approach to this game was crappy.  there was no clear thinking in approach.  it was  dominated by Ambrose bias for Holder..or Bajan bias for same

deh pik a stupid unbalanced side and all things being equal it is going to get its arse cut totally. skunt Holder, pik for bowling is going to have to bat to save the game ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL::

RE: RAMDIN'S FIELD PLACEMENTS

Like every WI captain who preceded him, Ramdin is waaaay too defensive in his field placements.

When a new batsman walks to the wicket----the field should be an attacking one.

Ramdin has the field spread for the new batsman.

I thought they wud pik Shilly and I was right.  I even made a bet that they wud pik shilly.  but Narine was the man to pik if they were going to 2 spinners...narine not Shilly

the wicb did everything possible for west indies to lose this test.  it is not ramdin's fault.  he would have to be superman captain to overcome the absence of Narine,..the presence of Shilly and Holder and just 5 batsmen

if the were going to drop Gabe then bring in Narine..and leave Holder and Shilly to occupy themselves doing whatever

LUNCH DAY 4

NZ 260/5---lead 236*

* There is no way NZ will lose this test match from this point. Infact only 1 team can lose this test now, and that is the West Indies.


QUESTION---THE BIG QUESTION:

* Will the West Indies be able to miraculously draw this test.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches. This is not about our players, administrators, or any individual; it is an entire system that is failing, and together, all of us must fix it now.
