Musings about sports in general, & Cricket in particular. With baseball season coming up, will look into that, too. And lots of good cricket in 2007, including the World Cup.

Steve Waugh is proving again how he is truly the best cricket captain by his agressive management style in the Caribbean this match. It could have been much safer to build up a huge total & hope for a win but, rather than just try to avoid a loss, he's putting his faith in the hands of his bowlers & going straight out for a win. He thus risks a loss, but Waugh's a gambler. And, he trusts his men. I remember a similar situation against New Zealand a few years ago where that same strategy very nearly led to an Aussie defeat, but he was willing to risk it for the win. This stategy makes for a very exciting match, & livens up what otherwise could be a deadly draw.
At this moment, Captain Lara is holding the Windies together, but if he can be broken than the tourists look to take the match.
