Quite enjoyed yesterday, first day in the series where I thought they really hunkered down and made India work very hard. I thought they showed a lot of toughness.
They showed guts for sure but this pitch is really good. There is no reason not to score at 3 runs per over. So many half volleys patted back. I'm a die hard fan and even I don't want to get behind that style if batting.
You're right about the pitch, but I think they were so terribly overmatched in the first Test, I think they came out this time to really just bat time and show they won't give up easily even if the skillset difference is perhaps too large to overcome. I respect the hell out of that type of mindset. Border-esque. Even @Burgey from his honeymoon would appreciate that if he weren't developing carpal tunnel from accuchecking the manchester weather from a beach in Greece.
I can take that Catch
I don't like the body language from West Indies today , very laid back and unprofessional..
they are forced to play cricket. Especially Gabriel
Holder was the bowler. Kirk
