Maybe, but if the pitch really is that flat then you're still in the game if they pass 400.
 
Very disappointed in this pitch tbh. I felt West Indies could win in pace friendly conditions as we have the stronger seam attack on this tour. But instead we got 2 roads.

I suspect we have produced roads to ensure 5 days cricket and more $$$ for CWI. I suppose if that enables them to reopen the academy and host A team tours again it's worth it, but from a West Indies perspective this series feels particularly soulless. Like we're being great hosts but in the process losing any semblance of Caribbean identity.
You sure you're not Fazeer Mohammed?
He really tore into CWI on Sportmax last night regarding this

The Seales paddy was when Lawrence was dropped at slip. It was Roach who fell to his knees head in hands bemoaning his luck when an awful delivery drifting a foot down the leg side was put down by the keeper diving full length one handed.
Man tbf to Roach they dropped a fair few off his bowling in the last test. Can totally understand why he'd be frustrated.

Absolutely. Either this or our bowling is toothless lol
I think we could do with a bit more pace for sure. Having said that Alzarri bowled at 148kph yesterday and it still looked pedestrian. Plus Permaul isn;t bowling as well as I know he can. But Roach, Seales and Holder are serious bowlers who have bowled quite well and yet they got nothing at all out of this.

england will be kicking themselves if they don't get to 500+ from here with a root double hundred...
