Thought I would start a thread for this, interesting it is the same venue as the previous game - presumably not the same pitch?

I think I heard Simon Mann on 5Live talking about this, apparently its a bid to save money as it costs a lot of money island hopping to 3 different venues so the West Indies board are trialling having 2/3 or 2 x 2 out of a 5 match series in the same venue as a cost cutting exercise.

Thanks for that, in the last hour have taken a delivery of half a ton of split logs for firewood and as they have been dumped in our drive got to get them out of the way ASAP so proper wheelbarrowing scenes here in RH20 but see the Windies in a bit of trouble at 61-3!

It'll also be a bumper week for tourism in Antigua this week as a result of having the 3 ODI's all in the same place.

Windies clearly don't have the bowlers they used to but it doesn't look they like have the batsmen either...

129-4 after 32 overs

Comedy run out finishes the innings for 225 and 2 overs short - Curtley Ambrose not happy on TMS... :lolol:
