Fixtures, Schedule | Global | ESPN Cricinfo

The first day of the first game, a tour game against Essex...

We are batting first :123/3 (Kraigg Brathwaithe on 49*)

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Both Hope brothers went for 22.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Brathwaite gets to his half century; a sluggish one.

 

[Gnske]

Calling it now.

The worst tour of all time.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Calling it now.

The worst tour of all time.

Why?

 

[Tom Flint]

This would have been the windies team i'd like to have seen
Braithwaite
Powell
Bravo
S. Hope
Chase
Cornwall
Dowrich
Holder
Roche
Joseph
Gabriel

Obviously would still have shiv but have given up any hope of a comeback

 

[ImpatientLime]

can't wait to see a completely disinterested west indian team get smashed 3-0.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Good. Already behind the 8-ball.

We are going to play an England team that will be on the fatigue side. We will not be pushovers.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Kraigg's SR is improving as we approach 150

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

And he exits at the stroke of 150, with 61 (155) to his name. Blackwood is scheduled to come in next

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

All four of the batsmen dismissed so far have all went via having their furniture disturbed: bowled.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Now Blackwood is dealing in boundaries... 13 off 9 with 3x4

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

make that 4x4...

really took a liking to Cook in that over.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

So Brathwaite's wicket has open the flood gates. Runs are coming easily now.

 

[mr_mister]

Blackwood is capabale of absolute gem innings. just hope they start to happen more frequently

and **** yeah Cornwall def needs a run. Such an interesting find

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Agree. Rahkeem is the ultimate fighter of a cricketer. He can bowl long spells and a very excellent fielder(catching mitts). A dogged batsman.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Man, I'm loving this from Blackwood. Going great guns.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Match State: Tea

WI: 177/4 (58 overs)

Brathwaite- 61(155)
Chase 27*(78)
K & S Hope- 22(30&54)
Blacckwood- 21*(13)

 

[Kirkut]

Watch out for Jason Holder, ordinary bowler in ODIs but can bowl really good spells in tests.

Watch out for Jason Holder, ordinary bowler in ODIs but can bowl really good spells in tests.

He recenty took his best figures in ODIs against India.
