The bowling deserves a lot of criticism indeed.

The problem with the declaration was it just not needed. I strongly doubt they would have declared against South Africa, but they clearly don't have a great deal of respect for the West Indies and its biting them in the backside here.

They are only in this, due to how awful the West Indies are in the field. I am not a massive West Indies fan, but for England's **** you attitude all test, hope they win.
If it does happen I hope it stops Root being an arrogant tosser as well, and stops throwing away his wicket and tempers the Clarke-like stupidity declarations.

Root finally figured out that maybe one end of the pitch might be better for spin than the other, after 55 overs.

Just as Moeen does his mandatory leg-side pie.

Yorkshire moved around a lot to outgrounds a few decades ago, I think all the the teams did. Boycott mentions Middlesbrough a lot in his anecdotes.
