Shot, sir! This is turning out to be more daunting prospect by the over for the hosts.

Proud way to end an immensely satisfying knock. As Cozier says "Everest to climb for West Indies"

Interesting thoughts by Greigy on PK stepping on the danger area.
As a swing bowler who bowls from very close to the stumps, I can relate somewhat. Sometimes, you tend to stray on the danger area although at club or U-19 level, you can perhaps get away with it!
I know, in all honesty, that I was the transgressor on more occasions than I was reprimanded for it.
Going a bit wide sometimes helps a lot when you are swinging it out prodigiously. A batsman has his eye set for a certain angle and when you swing it from slightly wide, you could get him playing at balls he shouldn't be. Leaving the balls pitched just outside off becomes that much harder and he becomes a very good candidate for caught behind or in the slips.

Bishoo looks a real prospect BTW.. 7 wickets in this match against batsmen known as good players of spin, though he was a tad expensive in the first innings and bowled some loose balls to Raina and Bhajji. Definitely one to watch out for, he's a serious talent. It's probably the Indian genes.

They don't have Ramdin any more, Baugh has recently replaced him. Otherwise you could have added him.
