    I knew Bess would be our danger man today. Reckon he'll take a few

    The umpires do seem to have given England more beneficial calls than the Windies, whether calls overturned by DRS, or marginal umpires call decisions

    I still believe we can bowl them out for less than 250 and win the match.

    I don't think there have been many absolute "howlers" though, have there?

    I do enjoy Blackwood's attitude to Anderson though. If it's up it's going

    I daresay that's the last time he bats at 8, because it's the last time they waste a spot on professional joker Jermaine Blackwood

    That said I am not sure Chase has batted with the right attitude either. There's surely a happy medium between trying to hit every ball and trying to hit nothing. But at least Chase is still there

    Physio out for Wood and now he is off the field. Such a risk playing archer wood and anderson. Guarantee one of then wouldn't make the test without breaking down

    Back on and bowling now. False alarm. Hopefully

    Particularly as he has kept Cornwall out the side.

    Jimmy is incredible, 38 this year and out for basically a year with injury but still our best bowler.

    I know he’s also their skipper, but I can’t believe holder bats himself so low down, should be at least a number 6.

    Agreed hes incredible but I doubt he would look so good today if we had picked the bowlers who would get more out of this pitch. Broad, Woakes and Curran would all get much more out this pitch.

    Most people’s hair goes greyer, his just goes less red and more brown.

    Yes, the pace attack  of Wood and Archer got 1- 135 combined

    When your spinner picks up more wickets in the first innings than the fast bowlers, and looks more dangerous, that suggests either they didn't bowl well or the selection was wrong
