Another 100 if possible, sets up a cracking last day

250-270 chase Will do for me and Bess with a day 5 pitch

If these two stay until close of play lead up to near 200 it will be fairly even, anything less and the Windies are in charge.

Playing to 630pm?

Ah, well 170 and these two still in then bit of optimism why not.

 

[Ghfd]

Ah, well 170 and these two still in then

Thatll do. Back in the morning, force the issue a bit, if buttler is there. Get 240 to 250, bowled out, have 30 mins pre lunch with around 65 overs post lunch to win.

the weather is set fair.
