Second Test: West Indies v England, April 21-25

[Arthur Crabtree]

Don't seem to be starting early, even though time has been lost.

[Aidan11]

Aggers just tweeted that he's on air in 5.

Although that might just mean he's been at the laughing gas.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Starting 15m early. 50 overs have been lost. They might as well not bother.

[Aidan11]

They add 15 min on at the end as well but usually the fading light will put paid to that.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Thunderstorms tomorrow.

[Aidan11]

Good job my Outrage Bus is not open top then.

[yuppie]

Thunderstorms tomorrow.

For the whole day? or coming in later?

So we will be expecting England to push on today. Maybe look to score 350+ for the day and be over 400 by stumps. Have a deep batting line up so could afford to be a bit more aggressive to try to force a result.

[Arthur Crabtree]

From about 2pm. Maybe a shower before then.

Cook will never get a better opportunity this year to get a century. This pace attack is pretty poor and unless Bishoo has some magic up his sleeve England should pile up a big total with ease.

[yuppie]

From about 2pm. Maybe a shower before then.

Cheers AC.

Hopefully England take the weather into account. Not sure there is a stat for that on the laptop though

they might be better with a turnip

i'll be delighted if cook gets a big score here regardless of the quality of the bowling as I still think we need an in-form cook for the year ahead, I really hope they don't try to spin it into something more than its worth tho

We may need his batting but certainly not his captaincy.

[Aidan11]

He might be a better batsman when he gives up the captaincy.
