[Cricket] 2nd test v Windies

[jakarta]

Poor captaincy from Root yet again, The Windies won't even top 220 on this pitch so why not give them a torrid few overs before Lunch?

EDIT: Another rain break, 281 lead, bloody well declare!

Oooh er, Leach gets their first wicket 14-1, they wont chase down 282, can England prise them out?

 

[jakarta]

29-2 after 10 overs. Am I the only NSCer watching this Match?

 

[dangull]

Not sure why England declared so late. No chance the Windies would try and chase that total with the time left.

 

[dangull]

39 for 3

 

[Pevenseagull]

Not bet on this one but looking at the exchanges an England win was out to 20/1 on the declaration. Under 2/1 now.

Draw still looks good value to me at 1/2 ish.

Need another wicket PDQ, could be interesting for a couple of hours if we get one

91-4. Brathwaite key wicket, if he goes they could fall over very quickly.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Great catch …5 down

 

[Beach Hut]

93/5 Holder out

 

[Steve in Japan]

At the time I thought we'd declared too late. And yet......5 down, 20 overs to go....

 

[Machiavelli]

91-4. Brathwaite key wicket, if he goes they could fall over very quickly.

Need to get him in the next five overs to stand any chance.
Just following online, and watching The Beatles at the mo which, for us, is just stunning. If something happens soon, we'll switch over.

Handshake time coming up, yet again the Pitch has won...
