I would not get carried away with anything from this series, as West Indies best players are in the IPL. Imagine a West Indies side with the following :- Chris Gayle

Shiv can always bat them to a draw. I love watching him bat, Thorpe like. He'll probably get out cheaply now I've put that.
Optimistic as ever |

It does matter. Cook has now put himself under pressure for his place and Trott needs to go back to how he's been at his best for England, which is starting patiently and batting long around the quicker scorers. If one of the three I named earlier fails in this innings, and Buttler or another doesn't step up, we could easily lose.

Cook won't lose his place. Trott does need to be at #3, I'd bring in Lyth. As I said earlier in the thread, Ballance needs to go back to county for a few months. The biggest travesty though, which I alluded to during the WC, is how we continue to overlook players like Vince and Roy.

Root'll be made captain by the time the Ashes come round i reckon. That'll f*ck his career up good and sharpish.

The pyramid to beat all pyramids!! Find out what team is in which division, eg which division is Coppull United in? |

Ballance is covering for Bell's failure in the 2nd innnings. We should whack a quick 50-100 and declare.

Much needed ton for Ballance! I feel we should have declared an hour earlier though. I'm all for Root as next captain, in test and ODI. He'll go onto be England greatest ever cricketer imo
