    Yeah, but that was because we picked Kabir Ali.

    Sorry, but if we have any aspirations of performing at a high level in the International game then you have to be aiming to beat one of the weakest opponents, home or away. How many of our players have performed at the levels you would expect of them? Had they done so, would we have won the...

    Moores. P45?

    He has been serving up a delightful smorgasbord of long hops and half volleys.

    Root's bowling is what I'd describe as "lacking penetration". Moeen is bowling crap.

    Read? Legitimate point, though, and when Michael Bates can't get a contract we aren't rectifying this any time soon, either...

    This argument is perhaps a stronger one for picking a front-line spinner. We were always going to have moments like this with Jos learning his trade behind the sticks having made the decision to go for him - we all knew that - but it doesn't make it any less painful.

    This is one of those moments when you really wish you had a proper wicketkeeper.

    Jesus, amateur hour from England. Samuels enjoyed that...

    Surridge have done good kit whenever I've seen it; Serious Cricket supply a lot of clubs with a lot of kit in the South East.

    Not sold on Trott's innocence in his downfall; even by his standards, there were a lot of moving parts involved and his balance and timing of movement, and with it compactness, against the moving ball looked suspect throughout. I think Nass explained it well: Trott was noticeable, rather than...

    Quite surprised those leg byes weren't given as dead ball... Don't think many batsmen alive would have got near the first couple that Bell had.

    Yeah, this isn't going to get any better, Alastair. How exactly did 2010/11 happen?

    Cook hits the ball to cover. Cover throws the ball over Ramdin's head to the boundary. Idiot with crooked finger signals dead ball.

    That sort of umpiring decision should preclude anyone from standing at international level.

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

    Yeah. Not sure how I forgot that.

    Stumps at 10pm BST. We will get 80 overs in and barely any more.

    Yeah, so I decided to get some work done during the afternoon session...
