England tour of the West Indies

So with Chris Read's latest low score with the bat, And Geraint Jones' performance in the latest tour match, should Jones get a chance to show the test arena what he can do?
 
england don`t realise how lucky they were with Alec stewart

Sri Lanka is not a great team, are you blind or sumthing, or just plain ingnorant??

They have one of the best All-Rounders in the world, if not thee best, and the best spin bowler in the world.
:D i dont have anything to say to you,let the ashes come ,adn actions will speak for themself,aus has this illusion of being unbeatable, now u would say that aus is ranked first in icc,ok then india is ranked 5 or 6 ,behind england,let aus come to india ,and when india defeats aus ,i hope u will be here to justify ur comments ,u just made before

Gr8 innings from Thorpe.
Must say was a brilliant fight back by England,and atlast their tail waged.

But WI let the match slip.I thought that they were going to end up with 60-70 runs lead.
 
Hope Lara and Ganga can put up a good partnership. They really need Lara today.

Its Lara and Tino Best to do the work now

59/6
 
I wonder how Andy Roberts, Lance Gibbs, Garfield Sobers, and Viv Richards would be feeling right now....

Truly a fall of an empire.......
 
well after that hat-trick, never really looked like a chance was there for the windies. Tino and Lara did a bit, but first ball after one of sevral interuptions, tino best was caught at slip. Realy Sad for the Windies. RIght now though Trescothik has found some much needed form. Good for him. Will windies win the 4th tes? well have to wait and see as this ones all over.
