West Indies in England

[Eddie]

Bravo's a world-class batsman. Get him in at number #4 and get him to focus entirely on his batting and he'll finish his career with an average of around about 50.

err... bit early for drinking isn't it

he looks good in the WI line-up, he's a good allrounder nothing more.

He really isn't a world-class batsman. Chanderpaul and most of the England batsmen are, but not him. He certainly has got potential with the bat, certainly more than in his bowling, but he hasn't proved anything yet.

A result is possible in this match if we bat once. Similar to the (unsuccessful) plan by Australia at the Oval in 2005. Bat once, win by an innings or chase a small target.

 

[aussie_ben91]

Nice solid technique. His batted well on this tour & his got a look about him. His got the potentiel to be a great batsman.

 

[mattfb]

The ground looks very dewy and cloudy. Should be good for the bowlers, Like Botham stated.

 

[Jaztheman]

Chanderpaul and Bravo both deserve their half centuries, Side bottom has an average of 17.00 in this match

 

[mattfb]

Well Chanderpaul got his half century. These two need to go steady and get the windies in a stronger position.

 

[Eddie]

world class shot by Bravo there..

 

[mattfb]

That puts the West Indies under real pressure. England should captalise on that.

 

[nuffa]

Chanderpaul saving the windies again..

 

[Eddie]

one man team >?

 

[Gunner786]

feel very sorry for chanderpaul
have a feeling he will be stranded once again in the 90's in england

 

[Eddie]

well to be honest he keeps taking stupid singles..

He should start batting more aggressively when 6/7th wkt goes down..

I maybe wrong but i think Chanderpaul holds the record for being stranded the most in the 90's in Tests.

 

[evertonfan]

England struggling to bowl out a last wicket partnership. Seems familiar.

Well played Sidebottom though; I was one of his doubters when he came into the side but he's been superb.

Any other Virgin Media/NTL subscribers in the UK got a black screen atm? Been dead since the start of the 79th over.

Tried resetting it but to no avail.
