were out, but at least we showed that big head Perterson who's the boss !!

you cant play major competitions and expect to win without your best players, its just as simple as that, any problems have to be sorted or just get used to losing

I think they might have realised it, he'll be back very soon.

I forgot to add that I've never rated Wright but he did well overall in this tournament and deserves a chance moving forward. Also if Patel can play spinners like he did today, he's worth a shout as a number 7 batsman if he can improve his bowling. He was excellent with the bat today, but his bowling isn't up to it.

If we're being harsh, his fielding is also way off international standard.

There's a press conference tomorrow isn't there?  As well as KP, Bell and Prior should have been in that squad.

Both South Africa and England out...may be something to do with still playing cricket up to mid September before going to Sri Lanka for T20?

Samuels is playing a remarkable innings to get the Windies back in this.

Great victory celebration by the Windies, my second favourite international team after England.

I quite like their training top too, wouldn't mind a Villa version.
