India vs West Indies Highlights – Super 8s

India Bat

WI Bat


Watch cricket highlights – India vs West Indies from the 2009 T20 World Cup – the Super 8s game.

Scoreline: India 153/7 Yuvraj Singh 67 (43), Yusuf Pathan 31 (23) – Dwayne Bravo 4-38-4, Fidel Edwards 4-24-3
WI get there with more than an over to go: Dwayne Bravo 66 (36), Lendl Simmons 44 (37)

Whichever side you’re on, two super knocks worth a watch on either side. And for me personally, a third from Simmons who looks certain to ease the disappointment of Marlon Samuels fading away. Bravo and Simmons had threatened this in the game vs SL

It’s a good thing the highlights are restricted to 10 mins cos it means they omit the painful knock by Dhoni 11 (23). It’s easy but unfair to pick on him now, cos the truth was it was always coming. Just that many chose to gloss over it cos India was doing well. The problem Dhoni is facing is that for some time now, he’s been unable to really go bang and yet he continues to back himself to do it at any stage. So in the process he gets into this prod for a single mode and when the big shots don’t come off, all those prods and pushes look terrible in the final scorecard. A hitter at the start of his career, he should definitely be able to rediscover it, if he finds it within himself to be humble enough to silently retract statements like – “I tell the youngsters to play their natural game cos it’s not easy to go out there and change your game. Not everyone can do it. Maybe after 2 or 3 years they’ll learn how to do it.” (paraphrased).

Fidel Edwards looked the best he has this tournament and a fantastic win for WI who should now fancy taking down either England (more likely) or SA for the semi-spot. Provided they field like they did today.

Pregame: With Chris Gayle most certainly back, surely there must be a way to retain classy Simmons, though how much of the bowling he’ll face down the order if retained remains a question. For India, Dhoni’s position in the batting order will be one of the aspects – it’s about time Raina is given a game, considering he’s hardly got a hit this tournament.

  13. derekdon

    because of dhoni india is sure not to reach in the semifinal.
    instead of dhoni it is better to take dinesh karthik in the team.even if robin uthapa is taken to bat he will bat better than dhoni.atleast even if he is not taken take jadeja instead of dhoni

  14. cool sat

  16. Pranav

    Yaar, I have just format my PC and Am trying to access this page .I laready installed the add on still not working ,somebody can help me on this

    Other than installing the flash player from Adobe and restarting the browser, can’t think of anything else that could be the problem

  17. next week headlines: former world t20 champs returns home.
    Bad performance by all bowlers except Zaheer.
    we can’t even bown yorkers consistently,
    stupic ishant should kicked out. he is good 4 only test matches. Preveen should be given chance!!!

  18. ishant sharma

    oh i wish india had won but thanx for the higlites

  19. Shashank

    India lost because of Dhonu surely. He played 23 balls for 11, and this is not the first time he has done something like this.No team can expect to win after such a wasteful innings. I always knew his form as a batsman is short lived. Look at his batting style , its no better than harbhajan . Dinesh karthik is much better batsman than him. Selectors will soon realise that Dhoni is a passenger int the team . Mark my words his fate is going to be worse than any indian captain before him. Ganguly who he dispise was much much better . He was a match winning batsman. I am not his biggest fan but he was on the worlds best ODI bestmen in his time. We need to look beyond dhoni. both Parthiv Patel and Karthik are very good batsmen.. way better than Dhoni.

  20. Shashank I completely agree with you. He is just a hyped player by the media. I still wonder why people call him great batsmen when there are really good players out there in the world. look at his (dhoni) averages in any form of the game or his strike rate…its pathetic. in the beginning he used to come in the end and smash couple of sixes and that made people to think he was a great batsmen that was becos of all the hard work put earlier in the innings by tendulkar, ganguly,dravid and others. How can he consider himself fit for T20 when he is playing this kind of innings..Dravid and Ganguly have better strike rate in T20 games than him…guys Take a break from dhoni..and start to appreciate people like yuvraj, bravo and other great players

  21. 12MBPS Internet speed

    This Sapo is slow as f**k, ADMIN why dont yopu f**kin go with dailymotion or hulu ? I HATE THIS SITE. SO much effort but bad result.

    Calm down sweets. Sapo keeps videos up longer than any of those mentioned and after a while, it becomes impossible to monitor which videos were deleted and so on

  22. Well done thanks for the great video recap. You are always doing a great job.

  23. MUSTAFA MIR (canada)

    THE MOST UNPREDICTABLE TEAM ,OFFCOURSE ITS PAKISTAN,,, SO WATCH OUT FOR THAT,, I WISH IMRAN NAZIR WAS HERE,,, I THINK 10-DULKAR AND GANGULY SHOULD HAVE IN THE INDIAN TEAM,,I WOULD LOVE TO SEE PAKISTAN AND INDIA IN THE FINAL,,,WHAT’D U THINK GUYS ????

  24. Nau(r)thyB(h)oy

    @Shashank.Every good batsman goes thru bad patch….so is it with ..Dhoni..only thing is his bad patch has come now…and its affecting his captaincy too..remember if we lost this time becoz of him..we won last year also due to him…and u r talking abt batting style.if u see Dilshans shots then u will need shock treatment..get real my fren .there is definately a problem with Dhonis form.. but he has to find a solution..i don’t think there is anyone els who can be captain..at this moment u should give him confidence becoz he needs it…. u can’t ditch him..now…its too late..the wheels are coming off..Already the rest of the world seems to resent Indias success…so we don’t want our people going against…our team.. support them till the end and then see wat can be improved..

  25. User Roshan sent this in – seems like an obvious choice for those who find the buffering too slow, but might not be so obvious considering the complaints often received. So here goes, and thanks to Roshan for making the effort.

    There is a very easy way to get around the buffering issue that I use
    Step 1: Open up the site & play the videos that you want to see in this session (mute the volume)
    Step 2: Open another browser window/tab & do some other ‘productive’ stuff for 5-10 minutes
    Step 3: Come back to cricket-online Your browser would have downloaded enough buffered material.
    a) Pause all playing Videos
    b) unmute your computer
    c) Start playing the video you want to see from the start (by dragging the slider to the beginning)

    Enjoy, freeze free videos

  26. Mohit Kumar

    Yuvraj Singh is really a great batsman in the world..can not compare with anyone..he is just awsome batsman and fielder…

  27. Vikram

    I am 100% agree with you mohit..Yuvraj Singh is real match winner player…who never played to complete his 50 or 100..he always played for team and country spirit..Batsman like Sachin they are not match winner player..he never played for team,he always played to complete his 50 or 100,But Yuvraj Singh is daring batsman..he never care about 50 or 100..I love batsman like him..those played with spirit wish him all the best.Gud luck Yuvraj

  28. Thank you finally India gets the treatment they deserve and now no one will under estimate us.

  29. Rohan Kumar

    Being an Indian I am disgusted at this team. Dhoni whoever said he was a batsman..have u seen him play…and I feel the team isn’t working together. All player think they are big shots and have so much attitude somebody please show them a mirror!

  30. bravo nicely finale sri lanka vs west indies

  31. great job west indies………….now lets see some consistency…hurray!

    Hope these two play the finals

  32. and about the POLL……………. come on, who cannot wait for a little longer. I always start it, then pause it. Let the bar run all the way to the end……….I can drink tea, or play on the computer meanwhile.

    Better quality is what gets my VOTE.

  33. Finally………buddy, I don’t know if you are reading this…….if you are, one suggestion i have is:

    is there any way, you can make the videos pause by pressing spacebar. Its already awsome (this site), but can make one better :)

    Thanks

  34. I THINK THE RUN OUT WHICH DHONI MISSED, WAS THE TURNING POINT OF THE GAME.HAD DHONI KEPT HIS PRESENCE OF MIND ANS COLLECTED THE BALL, BRAVO WOULD HAVE BEEN RUN OUT.
    DHONI LOOK TOO CONFIDENT OR MANTELY TIRED TO ME.WHAT SAY YOU!!!

  35. grabmyshare

    Dang Admin, you got it right, some people lack patience and I really appreciate the fact that you wanna preserve the videos. Its very important for people to note that they should just let the video buffer rather than hastening and expecting too very much, if you wanna compromise on quality go to youtube and watch crapy highlights. Cricket-online team is doin agreat job. I would like to stck with Sapo for now, unless theres a new optionw hich is better in all those aspects. Thanks, Rafiq

  36. India Lost!!!

    wooo hooo gooo west indies! now indian fans cant be so cocky :D

  37. GSS……….true, that could have changed the game. Same with a westindian dropping yuvraj singh’s catch off dwayne bravo. If’s and but’s my friend.

  38. oh india lose dhoni is not good captain

  39. hurry sri lanka can beat the galous india

  40. india go home fast…..

  41. Its disappointing to see India lose . But ITS GREAT FUN TO WATCH stylish windies batsman bat like that.

  42. dont want ishant sharma to play next match coz hes crap in t20…
    dhomi doesnt do much with da bat thesedayz

  43. Farhan Azmat , Denmark

    POOR INDIA LOST……..

  44. Just to inform you guys: Dhoni will be gone in last cupole of matches. This info. is highly restricted. You guys are luck that you got it.

  45. I feel, we have to remove Ishanth Sharma and keep R.P.Singh who is the real match winner for the team, I wonder why he is given preference, even by considering his past records. On all grounds R.P. is a far better bowler..

  46. Dan Brown

    Yeah. I agree with Ragh. Ishant Sharma is not bowling too good. Maybe RP Singh should be given a go. The lefties gave all batsmen trouble in the IPL. No reason not to test that again.

    Maybe it’s about time India tries RP Singh. And alo someone should mention to Dhoni, that even if doesnt want to hit the ball, at least keep the runs coming. He’s India’s dot-ball hero of batting. He should get his game together.

    Don’t wanna hit? No problem. At least rotate the strike dude. I agree with the admin too. It was painful to watch Dhoni bat. I watched the full match and it didn’t help that I was watching it at 3am and Dhoni put me to sleep.

  47. I prefer Asian teams coming into the semi.. Who ever t s Sri-Lanka will be upto t coz f their tremendous form…

  48. India and pakistan has good players but they do not play well???????????

  49. Wow! I can’t believe that some of you guys are writing India down just because of one lost game. I understand your passion for the game, but come on, don’t let that overtake your patriotism and rationale. Indian team needs support and we should stand 1+ billion strong for the men in blue!

    Don’t forget that India has been the most successful team since Australian team’s downfall. The only team to have co-dominated the game with India is S.A.

    We’re still the best and we’re still the defending World Champions, with 2 more opportunities at hand! Goddamnit, we’ll win it again!

  50. hmm.... a thought

    Well…India losing is not a good sign…. this defeat will probably put them out of the semis….they will probably beat eng (but u nvr know in t20 as WI proved), but i highly doubt they will win against SA. The best they can hope for is that they win by a big margin against Eng, and hav SA win all matches, with Eng defeating WI.

    Then it will all depend on NRR.

  51. Thanks Highlights

  52. khaleel

    fantastic match

  53. world champion ko kya ho gaya hia buhat mara hia west indies nay yaro jis taran paro ko mara tha lol

  55. low cast hind

    oh mara bharat ko kya ho gaya dhoni ko ham sub champion kahtey they ab iss champion ko kya ho gaya. ham india ko champion kahtey they yah india ko kya ho gaya.

    isss ka matlab yah howa app log reality ko accept nahi kartay bus jeetna chahtay hon agar jeenna hia too har kor jeetoo.
    u must have sportsman spirit in indian ppl. u guys r soo rude and ——————- (removed cos not related to cricket)

  56. MUSTAFA MIR (canada)

    finale= ????

  57. quintenssial curry

    watching dhoni bat of late reminds me of ravi shastri opening the innings back in the early nineties. only difference is that shastri had a better strike rate, and he could bowl.

  58. Dhoni sucks, he play like test matches..

  59. MUSTAFA MIR (canada)

    BE AFRIDI ,, BE VERY AFRIDI BE AFRIDI – BE VERY AFRIDI

    Cheers !

  61. Rj_italia

    thanks a lot cricket-online.tv…

  62. i am not indian, but i like yuraj to bat, man he can time the ball very well for 6′s , just love his batting, not sure about dhoni , but he’s not that bad ..

  63. neelkanth

    The thing i like about these highlights is that you show even the good deliveries to the batsmen. Thank god for that, everyone else seems to think cricket is just about fours and sixes. This was some good bowling by the west indies.
