Full and straight... stays low... does for Chase

Two wickets in the over

155-4

Whatever Root said to the bowlers at lunch clearly made all the difference.

Wow imagine how good they'd be if he commanded their respect and disciplined them too

Is it to early to say we are getting spanked? I mean series, not test.

I still fancy the Windies to get past out total and put the pressure back on an already shaky batting line up...

Nerve jangling stuff this. We didn't get our lead but this is not an easy pitch to bat on, I can't see the WI lead being much more than 50: a solid batting display could get us back in it - 150 in the final innings may be too much for them.

I expect WI to top 300 so give them a lead of 120-150 on first innings.


ps I hope that I am wrong and they dont score that many.

Jimmy is taking the new ball... this should be an exciting hour!

Every run is important.

I love pitches like this. Low-scoring matches are much more interesting

Disappointing lack of trouble for the battters with the new ball... worrying times.
