What a Bore! What a Thriller!

I know if I write about the Indian batting performance against West Indies I should also write about the thrilling win for West Indies. But, what to do? I never felt like watching a one day game - It was more like a Test Game! If you happened to watch today's game, then you would have also felt the same.

Coming to the point! West Indies score of 198 in 50 overs in the limited over Cricket match in Kingston, Jamaica - What a poor score! So, everyone expected a pretty much easy walk through for India having the comfortable of winning like past 17 games in chasing & that too with a big batting line up! So, in comes the Indian team for batting! From the very first ball, we just can feel what the whole Indian team is feeling! "Just take it easy and we'll win this game!"

I waited! We All waited! Every ball, just rolling over and no & low scoring game! Didn't you all get bored watching the game? Like first 50 in 77 balls & then comes like 2nd fifty in 100 balls! Bad & Bad! Won't the players feel the crowd's excitement to watch the game? The whole world is looking at this game that too on a weekend & so, I guess the players have the responsibility of making the game more entertaining & exciting! Well, the game didn't live up to the entertainment expectation but it just turned out to be more exciting at the end!

What a thriller! Not worth a single run defeat! I could have lived with atleast a tie with a single run by Yuvi & Munaf Patel getting out! But, its worth a fight by the West Indians! All Hands To The Game of Cricket!
