Gone are the days when the likes of Boycott,Border etc used to dig in, showing grit and determination and not throwing their wicket away.These days it is all about being aggressive and scoring runs at a good rate. I know, I like the longer games and have never been to a 20/20 game and never will. Seeing as nobody can concentrate for any more than 10 mins these days, hardly surprising that tests never last 5 days anymore.

Yes I was born here. My parents are Jamaican and I was bought up watching the Windies at Lord's and thee Oval. I support England against everyone else but not the Windies. Fair do's fella. Growing up in the eighties I have always had the greatest respect for the Windies.
However from what I hear, the young West Indians aren't so interested in the sport though. Cracking test match.

Now having had them at something like 70 - 6 we have let them rack up nearly three hundred runs for the seventh wicket. What a complete shambles.
