WI v England 5th Test

[flashyfox]

England won toss and are 74-1 at lunch, cook man out. Prior, Panessar and Amjad Khan (making debut) come in for Ambrose, Bopara and Sidebottom.

 

[Brauny Blue]

The top half need to make the runs. It looks a long tail with Anderson at 9.

 

[Willlow]

To be fair to Anderson he is good at staying in, hence why he is nightwatchmen and can play some shots. I think he also has the best test record for the amount of matches with a duck.

2 Century makers so far.

 

[Brauny Blue]

Same as.

WI looking like they are going to match Englands score, leaving another boring final day on another flat wkt.

 

[Scodger Cubs]

Gayle retired hurt..i hear it's his hamstring..if he can't carry on for them then we might have a chance !!

Nash and Chanderpaul taking them to the follow on mark.

Most boring test series I can remember in terms of pitches.

6 now and only 12 wickets well into day 4

 

[Brauny Blue]

England lead by 82.

Probaly set them about 220 from 65 overs.

Not much chance though if it took them over 170 overs to bowl them out in the 1st innings

I agree Brauny set them between 200 - 220 in about 60 to 65 overs and hope the pressure gets to the WINDIES and they collapse.

 

[fox58]

Pietersen out in the last over before lunch 236-5

 

[MKFox]

windies set 240 to win, 64 overs

 

[Brauny Blue]

Once again too negative by Strauss imo.

The wicket is not doing enough for a big collapse.

Surely he needed to make the target irresistible.
200 lead with 20mins or 4 to 5 overs before lunch.

 

[fox58]

34-2 both openers gone a little over 50 overs to go

 

[MKFox]

I took evens after day 1 on the draw, so no doubt some fecking team will screw it up for me....

 

[Jeff]

58-3

 

[fox58]

107-7 57 overs we must have a chance now

 

[homer]

109-8
3.2 overs left
