Oh yeah of course, but this is a perfect pitch for WI considering the injuries to Taylor and Roach and the supremacy of Steyn. Regardless, a draw here would be a massive boost for the Windies considering the return of three key players (hopefully) next test. I still maintain a slower pitch like this is tailor made for Shiv and he will be the key.
What figure do you think we'll need to have a realistic chance of winning the Test? i'm confident we can do more damage with our bowling in their next innings to be honest.
I agree with your earlier suggestion that WI need a lead of about 70-100, but there just isn't enough time to score 400+, bowl SA out again and chase a total down without even considering the potential for lost time. However, presuming WI score in the 300+ range, I don't think they can lose this test which was the best outlook coming into this test.
Yeah for sure, that's why I said this was the ideal pitch for the Windies. Despite this, the injuries really do weaken the bowling. They came in with two bowlers making their debut. The opportunity for a win in this test was missed when SA were 5/107
I think as long as they score over 300 the match should be safe for a draw.
The much maligned Morkel on fire. Windies need a bit of Chanderwall.
, great effort by the bowlers getting totally undone by some garbage batters, i said Dowlin wasn't good enough and certain posters had a go but the evidence was clear again today, Darren Bravo should have played like i said from the outset, Gayle is just pissing me off now, his confidence looks completely shot and his form since Australia has been shambolic at best, 
There was me thinking Hampshire's collapse last night was bad......
