West Indies has to be worth a punt at over evens, they are definitely the favourite in my eyes.
The pitch doesn't seem to have deteriorated enough and think we are currently 70-80 runs short of a defendable total.

Nice slow start today I hope score the runs but take a while limit the time so they have to go for the bigger shots and get wood and archer bouncing and jimmy swinging and we have a slight hope
All we can really do is try bat long but they will be going for it to wipe us out quick.

I can't see Archer and Wood batting long, i think with those 2 at the crease we are better off seeing if they can put as many on as quickly as possible before they catch one with their name on it.

Either can I mate but I’ve got £25 on England to win

Thats only because we're in England so most of the bets will be on England. Its a very reachable target assuming that Archer, Wood or Anderson don't notch a very surprising total.

The lack of ability to score big is really frustrating to watch. So many batsmen getting 30s and out. That’s what has cost us so many times over the years - everyone gets low scores but when you get in you need to score not just 100s but big 100s.

Good luck England today but I fear the worst

Been a good game but I think we're a few runs short

Can’t wait for this. Fully expect cricket to do its thing and keep us gripped all day. It certainly did on this Sunday last year. Just a shame Sky can’t make it free for the nation to watch just for today.

Interesting stat: Buttler has made 1 half century in 21 innings since the start of the Ashes

Sky mate all about money only reason I bought it was for the cricket saying that it crowed was allowed I would be in attendance no doubt

Aye same. They managed it with the football surely could do it for a day or two of cricket every Test

Even sky one which most have the cheaper packages, Hopefully with bbc getting highlights might mean a few tests in future
Jofra has a pretty decent first class batting record
now is the time to show it

Big no ball missed there. It’s really not hard to look out for them come on. Especially when it’s Gabriel bowling
