[Cricket] England v West Indies

[Pavilionaire]

Now Crawley gone c&b. England need another 100 runs, the ball is still new, game on.

 

[The Wizard]

Umpires having an absolute mare this game.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Another umpiring mistake, Buttler survives, 260-5, the lead 146.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Buttler bowled. Oh dear....

 

[The Wizard]

No doubt about that one. Poor technique from Buttler.

Need to get to 250, same old England, all players getting starts all players getting out in pathetic ways.

And gone. Last 3 wkts fallen quickly, WI’s game now, surely.

Seems to me that we haven't been able to accelerate, runs very hard to come by.

All unravelling now. 279 for 8, Gabriel keeps knocking our stumps over! Bess and Pope the latest victims. Wood and Archer in the middle. This extra 30 mins has done us zero favours.

 

[The Wizard]

Some of our players really just don’t have the mental fortitude to build a long innings, it’s not unlucky anymore it’s ridiculous the amount of scores between 20-50 we get without anyone kicking on is ridiculous.

Interesting last day ahead, could go either way with a quick 50 or a quick 2-3 wickets.

 

[Weststander]

At age 34, is Joe Denly set to be in this England test first 11 for a few series?

 

[The Wizard]

England all out for 313, West Indies need exactly 200 to win.

West Indies big favourites IMO.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Archer ser, Anderson the new batsman, Archer decides against a single off the first ball of the over, takes it off the second exposing Anderson to four balls against Holder.

Where is the sense in that?

 

[Is it PotG?]

200 to win, piece of cake.

With some it is mental fortitude, with others it is poor technique.

 

[Gwylan]

This looks good for England. One player down already and Anderson and Archer look really up for this. I fancy us to win by 40 odd runs

Rob Key ‘Brilliant from Archer’

Batsman drags the ball onto the stumps through his legs

Good delivery though.

 

[The Wizard]

Now THAT is a superb ball from Archer, absolutely plumb.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Archer looking back to his best here, Anderson also on the money.

Stokes will need to keep his bowlers fresh for more after lunch, I hope he gives himself and Wood a few overs before the break.
