Colly's ton is the high spot of the test for me so far. Especially after getting so near last time.

Good start.

Cricket is for the Bennys and the gays

It's not that much of a puzzle, is it?

Benny from Crossroads or men who bum other men

Isn't that a song by Elton John?

God this is boring. Get Harmison on.

Fookin Strauss. Couldn't catch a cold.

Bob Willis is having a go at the umpiring. Quite right too. They have been very poor. Tiffin should be thrown off the Elite panel.

That lbw was as plum as you will get. The twat.

I thought he got a little feather on it. If you watch closely I reckon the seam changes direction.

Yet another successful session passes.

Looks like we're trying to throw it away now.

who said anything about a flat pitch with no life in it? you dont see many better balls than that last one

It's flatter than a witches tit FFS.

Wow. One of the best slip catches you will ever see. Trying to refer it. Daft not nice people.

superb catch

The sooner this referring bollocks is binned the better. Collingwood knew he'd caught that clean for a fact, Simmonds was happy to walk off until his mates piped up in the dressing room.

I'd be ashamed to refer this one as well that Smith has, I'd want no fooker watching that ugly hack again what an awful shot in the situation!!

We will win this.

2 down!

I'm surprise at you PJ. It's an obvious draw.

Far from it. The West Indies are more than capable of shitting this and Swann and Panesar are bowling superbly. The draw is favourite of course but far dafter things have happened.

All the pressure is on them and they haven't won a series against anyone decent for a long time.

We need 2 wickets in the next 8 overs or it's a draw.

Swann gets Chanderpaul.

We have a tenth of a sniff.

Now an eighth. Exciting though.

Best day's cricket in ages. I can't see us getting them all out though. I think Gayle will come out to bat if they get 9 down.

Come on England! Seven down.

MONTY!
Game on!
and thats 6 OO

Good old Monty.


They should just bowl Swann & Monty in tandem.

I still think it's a draw like.

Yeah its looking that way.

Too little too late?

One more wicket in the next 2 overs and it might be on.

Must be a draw now.

COME ON!

Some ball that. Two more of those please Jimmy.

Thats it then. Won't take two in the last over.

The best team loses the series

We gave it a good go. Well done lads.

The media will pick us apart now which I think is unjustified.
The Windies have stuck a bus infront of the wicket after England had one bad session in the series.

They come to us in May. It will be a much better contest for us.

If I was Strauss I'd be making sure our Boys go for the whitewash and show them that blocking for 7 innings in a series doesn't work on our pitches.

Are we just sitting quietly waiting for the convicts?

Bopara could make history.

Go on Bopara.... 3 consecutive test centuries nice one the 5th Englishman to do so!

Everton Weeks holds the record 5 consecutive 100's in 1949

Bopara's last six knocks in tests 0 ( I saw that one first ball yorker by Malinga),0,0,100+,100+,100+

Funny old game

The Essex boys done good today. This could be over in three days again.

Not with that forecast and the amount of wickets we have left.

I might go down Monday if it lasts the full 5.

Well pleased for Bopara, the number 3 spot is so important as someone like KP would relish coming in at 4 with the confidence to play strokes from the start.
