England vs West Indies 2nd test Headingley

[alfie]

One more wicket will force WI to play for a draw.

No... Surely not. They bat down to Holder ; and Broad and Anderson can't bowl all the overs. They'll go for it unless they lose at least two more fairly soon.

The main pair are keeping things tight right now ; but if they stay in they can expect Woakes to be back with the pie cart sooner or later...

England with a "desperation" review...waste of time.

Clutching at straws..

Lets see, i doubt WI will win this. There will be some speed breaker by means of a wicket or two to change the approach.

Admire your steadfast confidence in your judgement , Adi...

But I honestly can't see anything stopping a West Indies win now. They've only lost two wickets to the bowlers in the whole day...they aren't going to lose seven for eighty .

Why no first slip ? Straight through where Root should have been ! Should have been out ...instead it's four.

This is Written.

thick edges not carrying...going in gaps...new ball due soon but broad and anderson wont have anything in the tank for it

[yuppie]

It can be tough to get over the line. 2 wickets might change things here. Though its looking tough for England now.

West Indies have to win from here. Still less than 4 an over.

Specially if England are giving away free runs....

[andy]

Woakes strikes, good change, great catch!

[mikesiva]

Roston what were you trying to do there?

Gave away his wicket for 30.

[yuppie]

Still a lot for WI to do from here. If one team in international criket could loose from here.........

[andy]

hmm not sure id be bringing Mo on with Blackwood just coming on...id go stokes and go short at him...Blackwood dosent like the short ball

[alfie]

Mason Crane makes his mark on the Test Match even though he didn't make the XI

Still - just - a pulse.

Moeen back : hope he's in tune...

4 down now.

Not looking like a good move... Wicket apart , he's not had a great day. One more wicket now would keep this interesting ; but its still West Indies to lose...

Blackwood is going to go for everything. Is that wise ? If he comes out now it leaves a lot for Hope...but I guess if he comes off he wins it in half an hour.
