starts tomorrow.
Its gonna be thriller as result of series depends on this match.
Looking at Green Top of Sabina Park looks like Windies are favourites.
A lot gonna depend on Toss though..
Here is Holding artcile on this match

I think WI will win this test otherwise it will be a draw. Again this is my opinion to discuss so don’t burst on me and start shooting me
Dont worry .even I agree with you

Sabina Park is a fast pitch and It is going to be tough for India to win a TEST Match there.It will be an achievment If they manage to draw the test.

Play Your Game - Guess My Motto
Good start by the Windies, lets hope they can continue this form for the next 4 days.
If India can get reliable openers like Windies, they might actually start winning matches.
I say drop that no good SS Das for the next tour but Wasim Jaffer actually looks like a batsman and try Rahul Dravid as an opener and put Virender Sehwag in 6th place to make it a reliable batting order.
Let me say it again, Das has to go, this guy is no good against fast bowlers, Dillon has bowled about 4 or 5 times in this tour.
Openers usually face fast bowlers.
India 15/2 and 10Dulkar is in. Perfect time slot for him to JUST stay in there. Runs will come automatically if he tries to stay there.

I saw that it was funny.
During the current series I have seen 10dulkar playing shorts no doubt he play classic shorts but seems like he can't play a class bowler. It seems like his average is going down and down day by day unless if he is playing agains kenya, zim, or bangladesh. I mean the guy is still to set records and break most runs record in test (as AQ said he is yet to perform cuz in his 30's he is getting mature) but the way he plays top teams he might not be able to set those records. The only way to do that is to play more and more test with kenya, zim or bangladesh.

Class Bowler... I though in some post you said India and West Indies have worst bowling Lineup... !!!!! why change of heart !!!
By the way ,what I said I stand by that.
Oh yes.... In a series in which Sachin failed he is averaging 35.00. with 1 century and 1 fifty.
If thats a failure I would say we are ok with few of these kinda failure.
Dont worry about his average going down ..he just went down from 58 to 57....
AQ, Q never said India has a class bowler, he was talking about Windies bowlers like Dillon and Collins, they are class bowlers.

“Turbanator” happy with milestones in Windies test - his first five wicket haul abroad.

Thanx Umair bhai for clearing up.
And yeah AQ I never mention about indin having class bowlers so dig through the threads before you blame me for something don't just make things up.
I said he is a class player there is no doubt about it. I was refering to your comment in one of the thread you mention 10dulkar in his 30's he's yet to perform cuz he is yet to get mature. If you don't remember this dig through the threads. If he is yet to perform or yet to get mature wonder why he is not doing it now cuz this was the prefect timing for him to perform to save the match? I am not worried his post infect I don't care if his average is going down or up, am not competing with him. I just brought that up in my comments since I was talking about him. Ofcourse I'd like to see PAK players haveing better average than him and I think thats legitimate. I am sure you want your players to have a better average than any of the other players. But for your information I was not talking about PAK players haveing better average than him or vise versa.
Goodluck!

ok..lets go back to you statement again ...and show you some light .and try to clear you myopic biased view .
**
I saw that it was funny.
During the current series I have seen 10dulkar playing shorts no doubt he play classic shorts but seems like he can't play a class bowler.
**.
Here is some facts about Tendulkar.
v Australia 15 1406 177 54.07
v Bangladesh 1 18 18 18.00
v England 12 1282 177 80.12
v New Zealand 12 891 217 63.64
v Pakistan 7 395 136 32.91
v South Africa 14 948 169 37.92
v Sri Lanka 13 1124 148 80.28
v West Indies 12 895 179 52.64
v Zimbabwe 9 918 201* 76.50
**
It seems like his average is going down and down day by day unless if he is playing agains kenya, zim, or bangladesh.
**
First of all for your Info Kenya doesnt play test mtches. Also he playes only one test against Bangladesh. So before accusing go and check facts.Also if going down from an average 58 to 57 gives you pleasure then have fun.
**
I mean the guy is still to set records and break most runs record in test (as AQ said he is yet to perform cuz in his 30's he is getting mature) but the way he plays top teams he might not be able to set those records.
**
I still stand by him and you dont make your conclusions just becouse he failed in 4 inings.You just cant accept that you dont have a batsman of his class.Comeon guys ,the way we accpet that Akram and Waqar are great bowlers ,you also accept that Sachin is the best.and stop taking pleasure in his little failures.I know it was first opportunity for you in his career of 13 yrs and you didnt want let it go without having some fun.But now get over it.
yes its true that bastmeen get better and mature with age and he is no exception ..so wait for some more times before coming to conclusion.
**
The only way to do that is to play more and more test with kenya, zim or bangladesh.
**
Dont worry he is fine making runs against likes of AUS,Windies and Sri Lankans.and again go and find out if Kenya is playing test matches.
