West Indies in England

[Simbazz]

Well what a start, Captain gone, 0-1

 

[Gilly Fan]

Wicket first ball!
Ganger goes out caught by Bell off Sidebottom. Excellent catch! 1/0

 

[nuffa]

ohh man.. gr8 start for England in 2nd test.. Sidebottom gets a wicket in 1st ball of the match..

 

[Gilly Fan]

A bit high there. Worth a shout.

Is it just me or is Chris Gayle's bat too small for him. He's really crouching over in his batting stance.

 

[nuffa]

Ryan Sidebottom is the third England bowler to take a wicket with his first ball in a Test Match.

 

[Skater]

England must not let this start be the only good thing for them today. They have to be consistent. It's great to see Matthew Hoggard back for England he's bowled reasonably well.

Monty Panesar has made a couple of misfields already. I wouldn't have him at mid off! I wouldn't mind if it rained for the next 3 and a half days solid here in Norwich as long as it stays dry up north!

 

[nuffa]

Gayle taking on Sidebottom now.. 4 and a 6 in succession...

 

[Eddie]

typical Gale innings..swoosh... slog ...out..

moronic cricket

 

[Skater]

Hoggard has got Chris Gayle out LBW. He was looking good, congratulations on your comeback wicket Hoggy!

 

[Simbazz]

Gayle gone, Mr. Cool doesnt look so cool now, trying to whack it for the drive, dear me, he isnt worth a shout in international cricket if he has this attitude, its like he doesnt care.

 

[nuffa]

Gayle gone for 28.. Hoggard takes the wicket..

 

[Simbazz]

Smith gone, at this rate we'll be batting by the close of play! 3 wickets down, Sidebottom 2 and Hoggy 1

 

[Skater]

The West Indies are three wickets down now Ryan Sidebottom has bowled Devon Smith! This is going to be a short test if England pick up wickets at this pace.

 

[King Pietersen]

Hoggy's been abit wayward, only Gayle has shown any resistance so far, all England atm. Wanna see what Harmy can do on this pitch though, just hope he bowls like he did in the last test.

With Gayle gone, who could have used the pace of Harmison to score quick, i reckon Harmison might be a bit of use here, he doesnt swing it at all, but the pitch might do something unexpected!

Chanders might have been out there, it wasnt a nick i dont think.

Whoopsie, Chander-Paul playing like a tailender here against the swing.
