Surprised that we only left 6 overs. I thought 10 so that Moen could have a couple, Chase was turning it a hell of a lot.

Probably more about getting two good sessions from the strike bowlers - which lets them rest well in the middle.

So why not 4 from Jimmy, 3 from Broad,! from Woakes and to from Moen.
Then they all come back fresh in the morning.

We were never realistically declaring with a lead below 300. The declaration was as bold as I've seen for a long time.

I think that final over confirms my point. How many runs did we add in the last 4 overs of our innings?
I very much doubt that the Windies have enough mental strength to bat all day.

25 runs added by England in the final 4 overs. A target of 297 which is too low with 100 overs remaining.
I'm pretty certain we will win, but why give the opposition a sniff?

I think that it was a worthwhile 6 overs only 5 runs and the 2 openers have to start again tomorrow under pressure. This should ensure that we do not lose the game which wasnt so at lunch today.

Can't see anything but an England win, West Indies currently scoring at less 2 an over, Cook just dropped a sitter...
