Can't believe a draw is still favourite here. Even with the great man Shiv at the crease, I believe England should be favourites. Is it because of the weather?

England were 4.50 just before WI innings started, and I wanted to get on England but had nothing in the account. :confused:

Still paying 2.87 at the minute, and I think that's a generous IMO. They're in with a real shout tomorrow, and if one or two go, I can see the rest tumbling quick.

I think Shiv is going to finish the series not out lol. He is a great player that's for sure. If it wasn't for him England would have won the two matches a lot easier.

It's goes without saying that Chanderpaul needs to get out and quickly. If we get him out before lunch I think we'll win easily. Otherwise, especially with the forecast of rain, it's hard to look past the draw.

Didn't see Prior bat but he's had a pretty damn decent start to a test career, hasn't he?
Me neither (God, it's agony being without satellite telly), but yeah, he has. It's so refreshing having a 7 who looks like he'll score a few runs. Especially important with Harmison as a putative 8, which is a scary prospect against any team with a vaguely test-level attack.

I'll happily hold my hands up as one who was a bit spectical about his elevation, but happy to be proved wrong so far. His keeping has perhaps looked a bit ragged at times in the last two tests (what I've seen of them, anyway), but you take the rough with the smooth I suppose.

Geting Gayle out is important too as he scores quickly and if he stays in we might have a run chase on our hands - especially if the weather stays dodgy. Typical England though, we're threatening to play the WI's best ODI batsman into form just in time for the 20/20 and ODI part of the tour...

Sarwan went home with injury, actually.

Well played Colly and Prior, I admit I didn't watch too much as I was in desperate need for sleep and Colly's batting isn't the easiset on the eyes.
