West Indies v England (First ODI of three) at The Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, Antigua

[Titanic]

Luke hasn't bowled either.

Indeed... six bowlers used and Stokes, Bopara and Wright not used... nice options to have, I guess, for Broad.

 

[Titanic]

Root gets a ninth over... can he keep a lid on it... or will they get after him?

That'll be a NO then. 23 from the over.

223-5 (47 overs)

 

[Mackenzie]

That's spoiled his figures. Lovely batting from Sammy

 

[jakarta]

Where is Jane Derncrap when we need him?

 

[Titanic]

another good over for Bravo and Sammy.... 234-5 (48 overs)

This is PLENTY for England to be chasing.

 

[Titanic]

Another BRAVE decision from Captain Broad... Jordan gets the penultimate over....

Where is Jane Derncrap when we need him?

At the tattooists ?

 

[Mackenzie]

Windies have done this well. I've little faith in England reaching this target. Looking forward to seeing what the windies bowling is like, seems an age since we last played them.

 

[Titanic]

Another BRAVE decision from Captain Broad... Jordan gets the penultimate over....

and it goes for 21... 255-5 (49 overs)

 

[Mackenzie]

Loving this batting. I obviously want an England win, but Sammy and Bravo were outstanding there.

 

[Titanic]

West Indies finish on 269-6 (50 overs)

116 in the last 10 overs. Bravo 87(91) and Sammy 61(36) have taken this away from England.

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Flat deck. Easy win for England coming up.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

100 for 1 off 20

Were loose

 

[Mackenzie]

Oh Luke....

 

[jakarta]

Sussex are going to do well this year with Jordan, Prior and Wight available all season........

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

Jordan looks deceptively pacey.
Lumb looks a good find, pity he's 34 but better late than never.
Why Hashim Amla has transferred allegiance is beyond me but he looks a cracking player anywhich ways.
Love the setting of this match and gets me really enthused for the forthcoming Summer.
Good to see some serious changes of personnel in the England line up, it was needed.
Well done Sir Curtly Ambrose, legend!

I'm enjoying this just listening on TMS.

It's like my bank account, there's nothing in it.

[cjd]

They,re going to....aren't they ?

 

[Mackenzie]

They,re going to....aren't they ?

Probably. They usually do.
