    ***Official*** England in West Indies 2015

    Ha! You pick a game where the England bowlers took 20 wickets for 400 runs and you want to blame the bowlers! And Yes, Tufnell was a far better bowler. England would be lucky to have him right now.

    A "competent off spinner" doesnt deserve a place in a Test team. You have to offer a bit more than that. Moeen isnt a front line bowler. As much as people want to say he has improved he just doesnt have the control for different roles different game situations may require. He goes at 3.5 an over...

    Yep. Graves was correct. For England to be close to where they want to be then they should easily beat this West Indies team. Before this series I said it would say more about England then WI and I think that has been the case. England are not a very good team at the moment with 4, generously 5...

    Bowlers bowl. Captains try and win Tests.

    WI ahead. England should be whipping and riding Jimmy until he is bowled into the ground. There really isnt the time or runs for Jordan to bowl.

    Game in the balance. Moeen can't get cut and pulled after the others have kept it tight. Good that the captain has faith in him though.

    True but then we could be defending 165

    Marginally IMO.

    It is hard to say that Root is better given their respective records but if the role is batsman who bowls spin when needed then Moeen is a little redundant and Root's bowling is at least comparable. If Ali is playing as the best spinner in England then that is a little worrying itself and a...

    Im torn. He makes great catches but I think he makes them harder than they should be. He moves far too much for a slip which means he has to react.

    Yeah, I didnt go to rugby practice this morning and given up my Sunday afternoon drinking session to watch. Just hope WI dont walk this and it is a tight game.

    Good start by Jimmy. Can handle being driven. Broad has to pitch the ball up here when it is his turn.

    Id have given that.

    **** off Broad. As an umpire you just cant give the Jordan one out. Didnt look right on first viewing and games would be over in 2 days if you gave all those. As a selector yu cant keep selecting Broad. Needs to be dropped to come back better.

    Looks a poor decision

    Next hour will be exciting. WI, even being WI, have to be favourites chasing anything under 200.

    Dont be fooled by those who point you just to the raw numbers. Manny lost that fight but effective aggression is part of the scoring criteria. “A hostile or forceful behavior designed to create a desired or intended result, or produce a favorable impression.” He didnt just plod forward but...

    118 - 110 is a brutal scorecard.

    I gave Manny the 12th. 115 to 113 for me to Mayweather.

    Going into the last I have Mayweather 3 rounds ahead. I dont want him to be.
