1st Test: West Indies v England at North Sound

No Hope, no Bishoo, Devon Smith playing....

This team can kiss my ***.

Selectors do the same ole thing over and over and over and over.

Let's hope this strategy works.

I'm a little disappointed that the WI approach seems to be a defensive one.

1 minute silence for former Australia Captain , Richie Benaud !

Jerome Taylor to Bowl !

good dot ball ...

Playing out the first hour and denying any wickets to Jimmy Anderson, is half the job done.  Windies' middle order looks good with Shiv Chanderpaul and Marlon Samuels. England, seems to have better balance. The team that plays the waiting game has the edge. Just don't give early wickets and you should be fine.

1- 1 after 1 over !

Taylor to Trott, OUT, in the channel, straightens a touch - and gone, he's nicked straight to slip! Stuck on the back foot, Trott is

caught fishing in the corridor and after two balls of his comeback, almost a year and a half since his last Test,

he's dismissed for a duck

Trott c Bravo b Taylor  DUCK !

Roach to Cook, OUT, nips back and bowled him! Roach spreads his arms in celebration, Cook drags himself off for another failure,

extending his poor Test run. He was trying to push back down the ground but left a little gap, the ball ducked in a fraction,

[i]took the inside edge and sent the bails flying

Cook b Roach 11 (28b 1x4 0x6) SR: 39.28
