England in West Indies

[King Pietersen]

Pietersen you twat. Thought it was going to turn again, but it didn't. Awful shot.

 

[Sureshot]

Can't blame him considering what the ball before did, even though he had left a gap between bat and pad.

I've just heard an explosion coming from the direction of Norwich.

 

[barmyarmy]

Did you see the previous one? This actually looks a bit promising seeing as we're playing two specialist spinners and Ryan Hinds can get it to turn.

 

[Themer]

Good ball, got one to spin made him a bit wary then it went straight on.

England going well at the moment I think Shah will come out to bat after tea, that looked horrible cramp he couldn't move his fingers at all.

Well i am slightly behind in the live coverage thanks to the girlfriend wanting to watch twilight on DVD. Currently we are 121 for 1, obviously things will turn bad soon.

God i wish Rashid was playing....

 

[Dare]

time to drop KP

9. Broad
10. Hoggard
11. Saggers

I actually love Bob Willis. I swear they're picking the umpires just to annoy Bob Willis

 

[manee]

Hinds just bowled your best batsman of the last 20 years (if not more!), how do you feel?

 

[King Pietersen]

Was a good delivery. Pietersen's been done by Yuvraj before, that was more depressing. Doesn't seem to bat well against left arm 'spin' =/ What sort of reaction would you like?

Collingwood's going to go into no backlift block mode. I bet ya.

Edit: Lol, was a no ball anyway. Should have referred , this is why a Stanford 20-20 for 20-esque system would be better, as the 3rd umpire could have looked at that and made the onfield umpire aware of it. Ah well, was a good delivery all the same.

lol evens out Gayle's from last match.

 

[King Pietersen]

Bit of a waste of a referral that, hit him outside the line and was going well over the stumps (or it appeared so anyway, Hawkeye says differently, but I'm not sure that's correct)

King Pietersen added 33 Minutes and 11 Seconds later...

Talk about biased commentating: "was good to see Chanderpaul limp off". I thought the South African commentators were bad this morning =/

17th Test Hundred for Straussinho as well. Not far off the record for England batsmen now. Only 1 behind Gower. He's still got a very good record despite having that terrible run of poor form that lasted for at least 18 months. Nice to see him back, need Strauss on form, average of over 65 as England Captain now as well. Quality stuff.

 

[Dare]

also good to see Bravo running around the field. He is still to play a game for T&T but its a good sign for the upcoming ODIs.

 

[Themer]

Utter boredom that but England have done well today. West Indies were too way too negative, they knew England would have a long tail and could have exploited that to get a win for a 2-0 series win.

Strauss once again gets a century the batting department looks sound for the Ashes, the bowling the opposite, which is quite worrying tbh because the Australian batting is better and our bowlers look awful of late, they're the better team atm quite easily.
