**Official** West Indies in England 2012

Damn, no Tino?

At least Rampauls back, thank God. Missed him

Also disappointed not to see Finn for Bresnan, makes England a more attacking side for me, might create more interesting viewing

 

[Spikey]

suck it edwards

TBF TB is probably the ground most conducive to Bresnan's style of bowling. If he doesn't take a few here I could maybe see a change for Edgbaston.

Selwood just hit a six.

 

[Spark]

wtf? second over and edges aren't carrying to first slip?

 

[BoyBrumby]

Pitch looks pretty slow here. Healthy nick from Edwards and it fell well short of Strauss.

EDIT: Powell, I mean.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Barath looks woeful against movement. Admittedly Jimmeh's inswinger darts in more than most, but he was nowhere near that.

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Great catch from Jimmy! 9-1

 

[Spark]

Ew at the shot. Decent pluck.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Great grab; one hand and his weaker one too.

Ooo. Shaving the line there Stu. Just ok tho.

 

[CWB304]

Broad under 30 for the first time.

 

[Biryani Pillow]

Apple off a tree......

That was a fantastic catch.

Rarely see slips that close to quick bowlers early in a Test.

Good movement from both bowlers.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Lol. Incredible shot from Edwards there. Backward defensive leave?

 

[wpdavid]

Broad under 30 for the first time.

Beat me to it. Mind you, at 29.99 it might have moved back up to 30 with that single.

EDIT
And it did.
But you wouldn't bet against Broad being under 30 by the end of the day.

Be nice to see Edwards get some runs. But unlikely. One of those players I've become inexplicably interested in seeing do well.

 

[Pothas]

Enjoyed Nassers 'bang it in' hand thingy.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Bugger.

Athers beats me to it: Jimmeh needs to slip for Jimmeh.

 

[Spark]

Swann's catch IMO.

Might need a Chanders/Bravo special here or this could be carnage.

Bit Ali G, wasn't it?

 

[Biryani Pillow]

Well he's got 5 - which is good for him

Missed chance in the slips. Easier for Swann but Bresnan had to go for it.
