Australia vs West Indies, 2nd Test

West Indies 2023 Test Schedule:

2 Away Tests vs Zimbabwe Feb (TBC)
2 Away Tests vs SA (March)
2 Home Tests vs India (July)

Then we don't play any more until 2024

Test Cricket is so scarce for a lot of teams now, it's hard to build momentum or even a tactical identity in a team

''Baz-Ball'' would not have happened if England played only 4 Tests between June and now (like West Indies)

After this TEST thumping :

ALL nations will be calling for a CWI 2023 Fixture

Batsmen will be begging their nation's Board

to get a 5 day FOR them .....

Not waking up at 4am to watch this tomorrow. Will tune in about 530am when we will be inserted

Sanath Jayasuriya has the most runs in history for a 2 Test series (571 in 1997 vs India)

Marnus Labuschagne currently on 410 and still has another innings potentially

Did anyone noticed Devon Thomas bowling faster than big Jason Holder

Should be noted that England's brave approach is possible because of unequal scheduling. Batters from SA, WI, NZ etc can't afford to make a string of low scores before finding their aggressive groove. They'd get the axe. Knowing there are more Tests allows for freedom.

Those unfamiliar with our domestic game. Thomas bowls a lot nowadays and has had success.

West Indies bowled 99 overs at Steve Smith in Tests across 7 years without dismissing him, until today

and Smith's DUCK was well worth the wait hahaha
