*Official* West Indies Tour of England 2020

[Arachnodouche]

Half expecting Broad to do the wax on-wax off.

 

[vcs]

They could do with one of Broad's wonder spells with the 2nd new ball.

 

[honestbharani]

Brooks lucky..

 

[honestbharani]

He is already stepping in towards the offside... Think it is the best way to handle it, moving away from the line if they keep targetting the body.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Buttler keeping way outside off to Broad coming around the wicket makes it doubly hard to catch anything down leg. Not great footwork shuffling either.

 

[TestMatch]

Think WI have now done enough to secure a draw. Will take some England magic to force a result from here.

Feel bad for Brathwaite. Keeps doing the hard work, then getting out.

 

[Daemon]

Why does Stokes bowl such lengthy spells? If he's injured this side is nothing.

 

[vcs]

This 2nd new ball spell from Broad is going to decide the game, IMO. If they see him off without giving a wicket, they should draw it.

 

[Daemon]

Bess to Chase, FOUR runs
Blapped down the ground! Tossed up wide of off and Chase swings his long levers through a skimming drive past mid-off. Ping!

Thought I'd heard them all.

 

[Neptune]

That’s out.

 

[wpdavid]

Now then .....


x 2

 

[MW1304]

Haven't even got to Dowrich and Holder yet. Joseph coming in early has made this such a long lineup.

 

[wpdavid]

Poor decision that one.

 

[Heboric]

Bowlers who wear headbands are ace in my book. The bigger the better

 

[honestbharani]

I know Rob Key was waxing eloquent about Brooks, but he just seems to have way too many holes technically to be a long term prospect for Windies at the test level. If he improves his game, then sure but he was defeated by Broad's inswing so many times and still did not try anything different. Same with the short ball.


If that is umpire's call that is a bloody difficult one. Kettleborough is so so bad. Damn.

 

[honestbharani]

What is bumble bumblng on about? It was not gonna hit the stumps with that swing even if it pitched in line. We coud see two stumps when it hit the pad... Jeez he was good riddance last test from the box.

 

[vcs]

Yeah.. Broad delivering with the new ball.

 

[mackembhoy]

Why is that not umpires call on chase?

Probably just over half the ball outside line of leg.

Can't review that!!

 

[honestbharani]

Broad doing so much better with the second new ball and also showing why he should not have been rotated out last game.


30 runs to avoid follow-on.. This could get interesting. But I sense a Holder special.

 

[honestbharani]

Why is that not umpires call on chase?

Probably just over half the ball outside line of leg.

Can't review that!!

It was moving in, was gonna miss the stumps anyways, right?
