Bailye mia every over six and 4 martase...who knows he might just target one bowler and get 25 run and the game will be on Aussie side...amazing cricket
This WI team is coming to BD later this year...our bowlers better get their back covered with 'choter-bosta' for all the 'mair' that awaits them! Posted via BC Mobile Edition (Opera Mobile)

Would love to see a Ghayel storm on Sunday but want Srl to win.
Don't think both of my Wishes are compatible.

Xavier er career sesh. Terrible captaincy from Bailey today. You are going to give the last over to Xavier when Pollard and Gayle are both on? Starc should have bowled the last over. Sure he would have gotten hit, but not for 25 runs.
I'm guessing Bailey just got himself an IPL contract with that 200+ SR innings.
I just love the spirit with which the West Indies have played in this tournament. Watching Gayle, Pollard, Bravo, Russell and Sammy dance 'Gangam style' throughout has been both amusing and endearing. It's also been paired with great ability. Kimber describes this and the last over well:
Bailey's fatal blunder
The Australia captain was probably the only one who thought giving Xavier Doherty the last over against Chris Gayle and Kieron Pollard wasn't a mistake Jarrod Kimber

George Bailey and Xavier Doherty have known each other since they were kids. Tonight Bailey tested that friendship by throwing Doherty into a vat of acid to see if he could swim. Doherty was demolished.
There was no one other than Bailey who thought bowling Doherty in that last over was anything other than a colossal mistake. West Indies had the two people in world cricket most likely to eat Doherty alive with the bat in their hands. They were well set, relaxed, already had a big total, and had cartoon drool coming out of their mouths as Doherty held the ball at the top of his mark.
Doherty's first two overs had gone for 23, it was probably his worst bowling performance of the tournament already, and now he had six balls at Pollard and Gayle when they only had one thing on their minds, how far they could hit him.
To his credit, Doherty looked reasonably calm as he walked up. There was no reason to be calm. The score was already 180, and Australia had only taken three wickets. He and Bailey placed the field carefully, although it seemed like a waste of time even then.
The first ball was a disaster. It couldn't have been worse. A finger-spinner bowling a knee-high full toss to Chris Gayle is like throwing a cabbage at Swamp Thing. Gayle just hit it. He's been hitting full tosses for six since he grew fingernails in the womb. Sometimes you hear the commentators say that low full tosses can be really hard to get away. They don't mean this kind; this kind is hit for six by players who don't hit sixes. Gayle smashed it.
By the time Bailey was next involved in the game, Australia could not win................................... There was proper anger in his batting, he really wanted to make a mark. It was also like screaming at a hurricane.
