Second Test - England v West Indies (Old Trafford)

[Voice of fair play]

Doubly delighted that this is irritating some people.



Took the shine off 2 balls, Jos can't fail.

Don’t think it irritates people but probably makes them turn their tv to a different channel.

Too high surely?

 

[Voice of fair play]

Probably one of Stokes best test match innings in terms of maturity and true grit. Let’s kick on and really put them under the foot now.

He is such a mature player now in terms of summing up the match position and situation and real world star imo

Too high surely?

Always umpires call.

well played both batsmen though. Deep concentration

 

[TopCat]

Looks like a very hopeful review again

 

[Ghfd]

This one down leg

 

[TopCat]

This one down leg

and too high. They are reaching I think.....

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

that's very good from Sibley, England's slowest century in 20 years, love that

 

[Ghfd]

Dom will bag a few on this pitch

Bess that is not Dom Sibley

Hello benjamin

6!

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

effortless 6 , superb that

 

[Ghfd]

How well was that timed off joseph.

 

[HarrogateMackem]

500 ball partnership

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Joseph off injured

 

[dixonsafc]

Windies attack dropping to bits, Sibbers batting them into literal submission.

 

[TopCat]

Got to take advantage here and up the tempo. With Joseph and Gabriel off the field, if we put pressure on Chase and start smacking him around, Holder will have to bowl himself and Roach until they are on their last legs

If Buttler doesn’t make a score here, I’d drop him from the one day stuff as well. As punishment for being a useless bastard

 

[Ghfd]

Must be a long time since we had two centurions in one innings, batting such a long time

statto required

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

England need to rub their noses in it

You seem to be becoming a little bit obsessed with him mind.

Question for you

when was the last time that an england number 11 had previously scored a 100?
