***Official** West Indies in England***

[Perm]

Consecutive boundaries from Samuels.

 

[Perm]

Shivnarine Chandepaul almost run out, terrible mix up between him and Samuels. Lucky not to be dismissed, he will probably play it even more carefully from now on.

Argh Marlon, really needed a decent score in this Test.

 

[andmark]

Goneeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[simmy]

Not been the best morning of test cricket has it?

 

[cover drive man]

Colly? He's hardly our best bowler, but I suppose he deseves a chance.

 

[cover drive man]

The Windies relying on Chandrepaul again. They really need to develop there batsmen rather than just rely on one player. Hopefully (for me and the other english people) When the team come out they can get Chandrepaul out after that the West Indies will just crumble.

Hasn't been too bad, Hoggard has bowled with a lot of accuracy and Monty was getting a bit out of the pitch. Chanderpaul has been batting really well and holding down the fort, it's just like we have wound back the years and been watching old Test cricket.

Situation sounds remarkably similar to England's ODI side actually.

Although we got two wickets we still can't get Shiv out which is worrying - India have four batsmen who are World class not just one - but if we get Ramdin quick anybody who has seen the WI tail know they can go in the blink of an eye and leave Shiv stranded again.

But at the moment it is only shiv who is playing to a good standard.

His point is, if England have trouble dismissing one class batsman, imagine what will happen when their bowlers come up against four times that, later in the year.

It hasn't really has it? I don't think the pitch is helping TBH seems a little slow & low.

 

[Perm]

Good catch from Colly, Ramdin gone for 13.

 

[Perm]

Piss-poor batting from Darren Powell, really average effort.

 

[grecian]

Powell out, terrible batting again.

Will Chanders make his ton?

 

[garypleavin]

Well done England!! We're into the tail now and on top. Please get Shiva out soon.

Ah gotcha. It's a good point.

 

[PhoenixFire]

Indeed, a truly awful shot from Daren Powell there, go home mate.

Shiv set to overtake Rohan Kanhai, Everton Weekes and Clyde Walcott as a century maker.
