yes....but i wud say he was not that threatening as munaf or other bowlers...he had a couple of soft dismissals....
but ok...he is starting to regain form..n tats good for india if he gets enormous confidence from getting these wickets in the warm up match...
but he needs to increase his speed...he is jus bowlin at 117 kph ....i was worried about that......

Pathan took three wickets. But, I doubt he will be in the playing eleven. With Agarkar, Zaheer and Munaf bowling well, it is very difficult for Pathan to break in. Unless India takes an approach of using 5 bowlers, Pathan may not play many games in this world cup.

pathan was always a good bowler...but because of greig chappel's experiments he forgot how to ball...the indian coach wanted him to become a batsmen rather than a bowler...but its good to see pathan back in form....lets hope that his gives his best performance in this world cup..

I think pathan bowled well only in patches as he bowled quite a few loose delveries though he put few in the right place and was rewarded as it surprised westindies batsmen. And he was bowling at speeds well below his best.
I feel he is slowly finding his form but it was only a practice game and westindies were under pressure & didn't attack him as their innings was in tatters.
Pathan's coming into form is good news for indian team as it gives the team lots options in both batting and bowling.
