England vs West Indies 2nd test Headingley

[bigfluffylemon]

Good morning for the West Indies, only 2 down. England could and probably should have had another one or two, but it's their own fault.

Game is still very much alive.

Kraigg gets his half-century! Well done, young man....

That drop from cook is starting to look costly

Squeeky bum time yet for England supporters?

England "catching" the disease from the Windies?

Shai gets his half-century too!

Very costly catch. Since lunch England haven't really looked like taking a wicket. West Indies are very much on track to do this, well up with the run rate and plenty of wickets in hand.

If we can get one or two wouldn't be surprised if we got 4 or 5 in half an hour

Getting that way , yuppie.

Overnight I didn't give West Indies a hope in hades ; but these two are doing it so easily at the moment I fear that if England can't engineer a wicket soon they will be forced to actively defend : and once that happens it can be very difficult to stop the batting team's progress.
Some poor bowling from Moeen yielding easy boundaries ...Broad nearly finding an edge ...frustration and anxiety has transferred to England and I'd go so far as to say West Indies are nominal favorites at the moment. Time for someone to produce a moment of magic? We can hope...

This would be an embarrassing loss

Broad should be banned for the next test for that

Just kicked a chunk out of one of the footholes out of frustration

On the actual pitch?

It seems that England are starting to stem the flow of runs, which should create a bit of pressure on these 2.

Something has to give, unless WI are happy to slow it down for a bit, and then have a dash later in the day.

Only takes 45 mins of Blackwood and West Indies will win this
