*Official* England Tour of West Indies 2019

Lucky there... edges Roach through the slips.

Yeah, not the smartest shot in the circumstances.

Ball was swinging a bit early on but Roach couldn't really get his lines right. I think WI missed a trick by not bringing on another swing bowler like Joseph or Holder himself at that stage for a bit.

Burns playing well here.

Looks like a typical unelegant English opener, but getting runs at a good clip.

Burns on his way to a huge score.

Rory Burns is the best player named Burns in world cricket.

Not a fan of Holder's field placings. Can easily have atleast one man up close on a pitch as sluggish as this.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

507 more to go

The staggered slip cordon too. If you can't keep a full stack defending 600, when can you ever

A short leg would have picked up Bairstow, first ball.
