I'm a Roach fan SW - wholehearted approach , not something that all Windies seamers of late have shown.

Yes guyz, Roach has been terrific this year... I remember he was identified as a bright talent on our forums by mystery right from the day he made his debut, that was a good call mystery!

However, just, just when you thought WI are going to win a series against a major opponent after a very very long time, they find themselves at 83/5!!!

Full marks to the NZL bowlers for bowling their hearts out, this is why I always admire the NZL team, they are never short of effort, Bracewell, Bolt, Wagner are all well built fast bowlers who will definitely trouble you if the conditions are good for fast bowling, a helpful pitch here and they are doing the damage, one good reason why India cannot take this team lightly when they come here later in the month...

Good to see atleast someone remembering that Sam Smile  - Samuels has really shown how strong determination can lead into success he does not have a sound technique yet a strong mindset can really make you one of the best and really this Wagner looks good hope he does well against India too.
Rohit Sharma - What the world has seen is gear 1, gear speed 2,3,4,5,7,8,9 to be witnessed in IPL only.

Once you have a left arm seamer like Boult in your side, Gayle will struggle. Vaas, Bracken, Bollinger and the list goes on have troubled him more than any other.
In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage.

NZL 109/7 in their second innings, spinners doing the damage, this game can end today, and it can still go either way, Gayle will have to come off for WI to feel comfortable during the chase.

all set for an exciting final day... WI have the edge though, Chanders still there, however, NZL will fancy their chances as well.

Windies win, and a series sweep to their name for the first time in a very long time.  Happy times for the caribbean.  Many of our athletes dominating the track and field also.

Based on my many years of WI batting chases.I predict a seemingly comfortable chase
 
West Indies for Big moment and especially Darren Sammy. Good Performance by Whole team player in this test series. I wishes to goog perfomed by Marlon Samuels, Kemar Roach,S Chanderpaul last test match. Also, that not out score means Chanderpaul's Test average is up above 50 again, 50.20.

A nice series win for the Windies , Sammy leads them well and Gibson's doing a great job as coach.  I hope the improvement continues , it can only be good for test cricket.  As for New Zealand , they have some youngsters , but they are going to struggle for some time methinks.

congratulations to WI on a rare series win, very happy for them, as sledge said their formidability is wonderful news for test cricket. NZL do have some very talented players youngsters in their ranks along with some experienced ones, they should do well soon, esp in seaming conditions.
