Thomas is a big unit, a good pitch and short boundaries thou pace ain't everything.

Good start by us, Roy if he stays in is great to watch in this format.

That and he's blowing out his (No Swearing Please) after 2 overs.

They won't catch us this time! Not this time! They haven't spotted us! No, they're all snoring in their bunks! Or, you know what? They're drinking at the bar, celebrating our sinking! Not yet, my friends. Not yet!

If West Indies rotated the strike better they might've reached 400-420.

21 x 4 = 84
23 x 6 = 138

So in 44 balls they piled on 222

The remaining 256 balls they mustered 138 runs

Gayle played a superb innings but his lack of interest in non boundaries probably reduced the score by 30/40 runs
Think your calculations are correct, England are proving that

I guess wile chasing 300+ target, the one thing team should aim is on how quickly they can bring the required runs under 300.
Once the required runs goes under 300 the target starts looking achievable and the opposition starts worrying and goes on defensive.

Roy makes up for that drop of Gayle. Dropped himself - needs to carry on though and get a 150+

100 up for Roy and there’s still 28 overs left.


Roy showing the “universe boss” up on his home turf. Maybe it’s the passing of the baton......

Roy has matured in his reading of the game...

I think all England are thinking is just to keep the scoreboard moving with ones and twos, opposite of how the West Indies batted.

Our running between the wickets is excellent. We are virtually scoring off every ball

Roy dropped 3 times and should have been stumped........




Anyway I said this was a 400pitch, I’ve now changed my mind and reckon it’s a 450 to 475 pitch......

Another drop! Catching is probably the worst it’s been in international cricket right now. Seeing some shockers

5000 ODI runs up for Root. Quickest ever by an Englishman and 4th fastest ever, behind Amla, Kohli and Sir Viv.
