RB: Welcome back here to the third day of cricket from Barbados. The England innings over just before lunch with a marvellous performance put in by Jamie Foster to rescue what looked like a desperate situation for England. Foster playing a graceful 73, vital runs that helped England gain a slender lead. He was eventually dismissed by Vasbert Drakes wielding the new ball. Over to Max Walker and Bill Lawrie.
MW: In comes Drakes now to bowl, such a smooth fluid bowling action, see how he reaches for the sky and then whips the right arm through and yes he's got him Jamie Foster finally out after a marvellous knock of 73.
BL: Well he'll be disappointed with that Foster he was just starting to look in good nick out there and yet another England batsmen has been bowled. But what's this Foster seems to be waving frantically, he's calling for a stretcher - oh what tragedy.
MW: Yes Foster calling for the emergency services and it seems to be the stump cam operator that's injured.
BL: Well I'm not f**king surprised Max to be honest. He's copped several hard ones to the head, the stump cam operator, and though they wear protective gear I think that blow with the new ball was the last straw and I think we'll now be without stump cam for the rest of the match.
RB: Yes and news from the hospital is that the stump cam operator is in a stable condition suffering from a nasty concussion.
So England finally all out for 363 a lead of just 21. And looking at the scorecard - well like the West Indies a number of batsmen making starts: Trescothick, Hussain, Thorpe and Collingwood all out in the 40's. An opportunity missed by England but nearing the half way stage of this match and the game is finely poised.
