    England 32-3,61 adrift.
    Looks like a defeat

    Unfortunately Cook doesn't want to come back, and whether Anderson & Broad would bowl out this West Indies team for 50 or not, these batsman (pardon me, 'batters') simply have to do better.

    And the bowlers Chris. Mind you several of them are serially injured. One has been injured for so long I have forgotten his name. OK, age may have something to do with that.

    We are very poor at the moment.
    No real world class test players, with the exception of Root.
    Openers are poor, bowlers likewise.
    Stokes can be good, but I don't think he is fit.
    Bleak days ahead.

    Girls thrash South Africa today, to set up a final against Aussie on Sunday morning.
    Difficult game, but we can do it

    Aussie smashed us today.
    356 - 5. Great score.

    England 285 all out.

    Probably a good move.
    We need him 100% to concentrate on his batting.
    Next captain?
    Don't really know at the moment.

    Any good captains in the county game that even if they are not the best player would make up for it as an excellent captain?

    Don't rate Stokes as a captain.
    Broad and Anderson, too old.

    Can't we get Cooky back

    I think he might be too old if Broad is as you suggest.

    True, but a proven captain, never the less.
    Still scoring loads for Essex.
