samuels dropped guptil on 4 and he went on made added another 233 runs. this is a pure batting pitch if you drop a catches its difficult to contain a batsmen on petty and small grounds in NZ and that too it is their home grounds which are familiar to them. other day Pakistan dropped Watson on 7 and he went on to made unbeaten 60 odd runs and dropped glen maxxwel on 4 and he smashed another 40 odd runs how can they drop catches in all imp matches . Hope india wont drop catches in S/F against Austrailia there are 11 pure batsmen and 8 good bowlers and 11 good fielders are there in austrlia beware Dhoni and co S/F and if S/F wins Finals are matches of their life .play well win or lose give 100% good luck team India

I'am from Mumbai and i have watched Kanga league matches and monsoon league matches on Sundays in Mumbai......and i can assure you that the standard of WI bowling today was as bad as the standard of bowlers there.....it was disgraceful. And it is sad to see this kind of bowling putting India in trouble at Perth..... One of Rohit, Shikhar or Kohli will have to bat well and keep Starc and Johnson out....
Coming back to WI, it is difficult to believe that this was the land of Walsh, Ambrose, Bishop, Kenny Benjamin, Winston Benjamin and before that Patterson, Marshall, Holding, Roberts and the legendary Colin Croft......How much WI cricket has fallen....
And pls don't read anything into Guptill's innings...he wont last 2 overs against Steyn and Morkel.......

Understand that due to their proximity to USA most of WI are moving there to play basket ball and huge money is there than cricket. so fresh and young talents are coming to cricket rather going to USA to play basketball
