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

[Titanic]

and another maiden from Captain Broad... 19-0 (6 overs)

followed by a WICKET for Root.... caught at short extra... smart low catch from Chris Jordan - even better on the replays! 19-1

Too early to call this a good start for England??

 

[Taybha]

Kinel what a catch

 

[Moshe Gariani]

CEEEEEJ....!!!!

(one of the best in the world)

 

[vegster]

I'm a bit worried about Root, I mean, we know he can bowl but can he keep his place with the bat ?

 

[Badger]

FFS Jordan, STOP playing well for England.

Nice new haircut though.

 

[vegster]

Nice new haircut though.

If he wants to get on he will have to get a load of tattoo's as well.

36-1 (10 overs)

Joe Root 5-2-13-1 replaced by James Tredwell.

 

[Titanic]

England go up for a catch... not out... immediate review...

and it is out! Dwayne Smith gone for 24.

38-2 (10.3 overs)

 

[Titanic]

How did the standing umpire miss that MASSIVE edge??

Shocking - but just what DRS is there for I suppose.

 

[Mackenzie]

Poor umpiring there. Big edge found by the spinner.

 

[Titanic]

And one for the birthday boy... Bresnan cleans up Edwards

40-3 (11.4 overs)

England are cruising here!

I can't help feeling that its very poor sportsmanship of England, to leave out Jade. How are the opposition supposed to build the customary unassailable total, without the 93 runs (for 1) that they were banking on from his 10 overs?

They probably only selected the DR with thoughts of what he could do to poor Jade

Dernbach is the cricketing Cleverley! Absolute rubbish but still always get picked!

I think you mean Bopara, absolute s**t.

 

[Luke93]

I think you mean Bopara, absolute s**t.

Comparing Ravi to Derncack? Not fair on Ravi!

 

[OzMike]

Comparing Ravi to Derncack? Not fair on Ravi!

Yes it is, they are both s**t.

 

[OzMike]

Ta ta Pietersen and good riddance.

 

[Luke93]

Yes it is, they are both s**t.

Ravi is much better though. 'Shit' is a bit unfair.
