It was very good until this series. A couple of centuries in South Africa and made big runs for Guyana in the Carib Beer Cup. He and Chanderpaul have been awful in this series. Six very poor dismissals.Beleg said:Excerpt from Cricinfo commentary
A question I would like to ask people who follow West Indies around.
How's Sarwan's recent form?

An oversimplification. Capable of awful cricket far too frequently, but not an awful team.Shane Warne said:

1720 GMT: Rain begins again - covers replaced. Quite heavy bursts, and there are now even more covers than previously. Quite a bit of standing water on covers and far reaches of outfield.

The England management need to think a little... Then think a bit more... Then drop Trescothick...

I think england will be over the moon to be 50-2, the ball was really doing things both through the air and off the pitch (best seaming it all over). HOPEFULLY tomorrow there wil be nice clear skies and england can get past 200 with just 3 or 4 down and build a lead of 100+.

Probably since the 1st innings of the 1st test v S.L (9 tests ago)he'll be very disappointed with how things have gone.
He's got a number of starts in the 20's & 30's and failed to press on, just once has he gone past 50.
The Bangladesh series was of course a chance for him to cash in & score some runs & he maintained good form v Zimbabwe so no surprises there.
His form was mixed against South Africa...the highlight was the 219, but the rest of the time he was reasonably consistent.

In defence of Tresco
Difficult to know how to address the Trescothick situation, because he's not that type of player who can 'practice' his way back into form.
He's always had this fault where the feet tend to 'lag behind' (see Duckys passim) and got himself caught in the gulley. Seems he now cannot hook either.
On the other hand, he could, er, um, .........
Nope, there is no 'other hand'. Drop him.
