India in West Indies: T20, ODI, and Test Series *spoilers*

91/3

Shaky end to the innings, Kohli nearly caught by bat/pad then nearly dragged it on to the stumps, all off an Edwards over, seems to be a battle of minds/words/actions going on, bouncers flying at Kohli with him blowing kisses at Edwards, last ball of the over is a slight edge that goes for 4 and the days play has stopped. Some light harted banter as they're walking off the pitch with one of the Windies players checking out Kohli's bat.

India lead by 164.

India should easily win this.
 
Century for Dravid. One of the best of his 32 tons. Brilliant knock when India badly needed it to put the result beyond doubt. I don't expect anything other than an Indian win from here.
 
Bravo and Chanderpaul could hold fort for a while, I feel that if Windies are to do anything with this game, it lies with these two men. If one of them falls, India should be able to clear up the next 6 wickets within about 80 runs.

Being bowled out on the first day of a test match against (let's be honest) a poor team is hardly something to be proud of. I wouldn't call that exciting cricket.

Considering that before the end of day 3, India was in a position where anything but a victory would be considered disgraceful. That's something to be proud of: a team missing 5 key players pretty much guaranteeing a result before the end of day 3.

It's all too easy to look back and things in hindsight and say XYZ.

Please tell me which team/captain/coach/manager/whatever would be happy with their team being bowled out on the first day of a test match.

But that's the beauty of it, can't you see? That despite being 80/6, India still managed to get to 246, and keep the opposition down to well below their score.

I personally thought that on a bouncy track like this, 250 would be a good first innings score, it just shouldn't have required Bahjji to help us get there.
 
Ian bell's not included in the T20 team according to the radio, then they dont read out the full 11 .. shocking :( damn you talksport.
