England v West Indies 2nd Test

When the West Indies were hammering us do you think their fans were saying that we were shite with the likes of David Capel playing?

Of course not.

England were superb again. A 9 wicket win after losing the toss on a good wicket in hot sunshine is outstanding.

not only that but the west indies should be proud of themselves they had some very good stretches, in both tests so far, and i dont think its out of the question they could still pick up a win
 
I have been fairly impressed with their bowling this series, (in spells anyway) although they are still way short regarding a spin option.

The political and money side of things are their major stumbling blocks.

Been very impressed with Narine in the IPL, really good control and a bit of mystery to him (smashed all over in the final though :lol: ), not sure if he was left out because of the IPL or they're backing Shillingford for now,I hope he's in the ODIs (are we having any with WI?)

But there seems to be a myriad of problems with WI cricket include amateurish administrators, money elsewhere (IPL and other sports), weak-willed players, inter-island politics etc

were lucky that england dishes out such big [in cricket terms] contracts to our internationals other wise we would have the same problem - they go where the money is. the windies players get paid so little, when they do get paid, that it is far better for them to play in the IPL. and fair fucknig play.

we are having ODIs against them yes, not sure how many though
