England v Windies Test match thread

For those of us who like cricket, what's your thoughts on this series? Looks like Anderson has their number already swinging it all over the place now...

Bigger test will be the South Africans later in the summer methinks...

 

Weather permitting 3-0 England,we'll beat South Africa 2-1.

 

Windies 32 - 2, both to Jimmy

 

I remember watching Greenidge smash a double hundred in an afternoon back in 84 to pummel us!Truely amazing innings.

 

Seen some great innings over the years in this series. When I lived in Brixton I used to love going to the last match of the series which was always at the Oval, there was always great banter and atmosphere with the locals, it's all gone a bit more serious and corporate these days...

 

Good man Soopa for doing this!!!

Bowlers keeping on top must be hard going for batsman in these conditions.

 

It's not as bad for batsmen as it can be at Lords on a first morning, weather isn't looking ideal but I'd fancy us to roll them over...

 

These 2 seem to be getting their heads down and starting to tick over the scoreboard

 

Looks like a good batting wicket!

 

Chanderpaul is the dangerman, if these two keep it going you wouldn't want tired bowlers facing him later on...

 

Fairly even 1st session

 

Pietersen just gone, it's all going tits-up!...

 

(In CB's absence -well someone's got to keep him going )

'Mods can we get this thread locked, this is a football forum!'

 

Any idea what the lunch menu is like at Lords Wubba?...

 

Lol, you beat me to that one mate

 

No idea but salmon & cucumber sandwiches and a chilled Sancerre would be nice

 

6 wickets, less than 100 runs, 2 and a bit sessions, can England **** it up? Of course they can!

 

its going to be a whitewash they are not good enough.

 

Yeah, the crisis seems to be over...
