I'd gladly set them 120 to win it from here. This has all the makings of an innings defeat here and us being bowled out for under 100 again.

I expect England will put up a fight second dig. Predicting WI will chase whatever 7/8 down to make it a tense finish

I think you're right. If Jimmy can get one to lift and fly past the edge like that, at his pace and with a relatively old ball, then I don't fancy our chances against proper quicks at all. And obviously we'll play and edge it more than they have. :ph34r: Sod's law in this situation.

apologies if the point has already been made, but Bravo's brilliant innings here makes an absolute mockery of the English "play your natural game" orthodoxy

As does much of the WI batting in this innings. And in the first test actually until they were able to cash in against exhausted bowlers.

I wonder if Joseph's mum had a terminal illness or if it was sudden. Would make a big difference to whether you could play or not I reckon

I think her death has been described as sudden. Which makes it surprising that he's still playing, but good luck to the lad.
