[Cricket] 1st Test, England tour of West Indies at Bridgetown, Barbados

[Titanic]

Rashid didn't seem to know a lot about those 4 deliveries...

He is not going to die wondering...

26.2 4 Joseph to Rashid, FOUR runs, four more, spanked through point...! overpitched by Joseph and Rashid lets those rubber wrists go twang! once again
26.1 4 Joseph to Rashid, FOUR runs, whippage from Rashid, all bottom hand as he scoops four over midwicket with a casual flick

FFS. We were four down and I took my son to cricket training.

Dropped him off and remembered to put Talk Sport on in the car. 8 down.

Not sure this particular version of the social media "10 year challenge" is one I'm enjoying TBH

Nine down... a wicket for Gabriel... hostile short ball... Curran ducks into it... gloves it to gully.

England 73-9 (29.5 overs)

Jimmy 'The Burnley Lara' striding out

 

[Titanic]

England 77 all out (30.2 overs)

Kemar Roach 11-7-17-5 and the other three quicks shared the spoils.

Jennings top scorer with 17

212 runs behind on first innings.

 

[LlcoolJ]

Jesus. 77 all out.

The look on Jimmy's face just before the last wicket said it all. [emoji23]

West Indies will contemplate the follow-on over tea... and probably bat again.

No matter how good the West Indies bowling was that was disgraceful.

The only really poor shot was Moeen Ali.

 

[Ernest]

Just like the 80’s when we played them

 

[Gwylan]

A shocking batting display, I wonder which bowler will be dropped

 

[Badger]

Just like the 80’s when we played them

80's nostalgia is trendy at the moment, so England are very much on point.

 

[Titanic]

England 30-1 at lunch... 77 all out at tea.

Amazing session for the WIndies.

West Indies are batting again... to build on their 212 lead.

You think things are bad without Cook. Imagine what they'd be like without Cook AND Jimmy.

Jennings was our top scorer... you can't blame him.

Our best chance of not losing is if they do not enforce the follow on and bat too long allowing us the time to bat out a draw. IMHO it is a no brainer make us follow on. If we managed to score 400 it will still leave them only 200 to get to win.

Well we wouldn't have just witnessed a collapse if that was the case.



(West Indies would still be batting)

There's still THREE days and a session left.

 

[Gwylan]

It's a wicket with good steep bounce, ideal for a tall, quick bowler who hits the deck: Broad should take a good few wickets in the second innings.



Oh
