Windies Test Series...Wait, didn't we have this a few months ago?

[DMR]

Ravi Bopara is sure as hell staking him claim here. Nobody's doubted his ability but his temparament really has suprised me, not really had too much of a slog away. Will be interesting to see if he can do it to the Aussies.

He certainly can - he's absolute class.

Why didn't we chuck this guy in at number 3 a year or 2 back when Bell has been constantly poor?

[Nemo]

He didn't do too well lower down the order, we tried him for a bit. He seems the anti-Bell.

And for goodness sakes, the Windies start bowling nasty balls and roughing a player up for the first time all day and it's the night watchman. Flat track bullies, the lot of them.

[DMR]

Cos he wasn't ready.

302-2 at stumps. Lovely jubbly.

This will be a draw. It'll rain for 3 days now.

And no duck for Anderson again.

Great run of form for Bopara, but he did have a mural  (three ducks in a row) before that, so let's not go overboard just yet.

404-3. Play back under way again. KP on 44 from 45 balls. Cook past 150.
