England have blown both reviews inside 11 overs. Madness.
Especially the 1st one, looked like thigh pad for all money, not sure why Trott thought he should get involved. For a side with still a lot of test experience they play some really thoughtless cricket.

Now a review has been wasted too, wheels coming off for England.

Windies to win at a canter, and the list test/drawn series will be the catalyst for absolutely no changes in the England setup!

I think if England lose, there is more chance of some change at the top now that Colin Graves has a say.

It has already changed a fair bit ... KP's carrot, Downton gone, etc.

Slow and steady changes rather than a knee jerk reaction all at once.

Good to see Trott has continued with his positive contribution by making sure a review was used wrongly

The great Shivnarine Chanderpaul fails again, the end is in sight of the legendary left hander, Clubman with the wicket. 4/80

Clubbie with more wickets than Steyn...

England have a new clubbie, his name is Jos Buttler. He can't keep for toffee. Blackwood charged down the pitch to Root and missed his attempted big shot. Yet Buttler fluffed the simple stumping.

Hmmmm! England desperate for a couple of quick wickets here I think.

Interesting that on a helpful wicket, we have no frontline spinner, and that Root is out-bowling an undercooked Ali!

West Indies in front here.

Looks very much like a draw series and thats about where we are if we are honest.
Maybe a good thing in the long run,lyth now needs a fair run in the side in place of trott.as far as spinners go thou im lost
Ali has been poor i homestly cant help thinking if rashid if not going to play tredwell would of done a better job

Really poor from England. Credit to the WIndies though.

Tredwell would have done a job. Not a big spinner of the ball but more than enough assistance in the pitch and he always has good control.

Some of the players need to have a real long look at themselves. We can blame the coaching staff but when they get out on the field they think for themselves. England had enough to win this series comfortably but too many passengers and we need to get rid of players with scars otherwise the remainder of the summer will be embarrassing.

I vote we ignore trying to find all rounders. Lets just pick specialists to do their job and if they aren't good enough we hold our hands up. Repeated patterns of poor performance is getting very boring now!
