2nd Test: West Indies v England at St George's

464

Lead of 165

---

144.1
Holder to Root, 1 run,  full on the stumps, dabbed out through midwicket and Root calls for the second, Anderson is just strolling

back, fails to run it bat into his ground and even though the throw back is well above the bowler's head,

Jimmeh Run Out

Last time England had 3 batsmen run out in 1st innings of a Test:

Adelaide, 1901-02.

202 - 2 after 75 overs


Brathwaite 101* Samuels 22*


Stumps Day 4 !!

Can't give away free wickets like that and expect to win. Great rear guard fightback from West Indies today to all but assure a draw especially on a wicket this flat. Bratwaite continues his impressive start to his Test career and looks like someone the West Indies can build around.

224 - 3

81.1
Anderson to Brathwaite, OUT, breakthrough! Terrific short ball, and it's lobbed to gully. Climbs towards Brathwaite's throat,

he had to play, fended at it with bat and gloves, the ball took the shoulder of the bat into the cordon.

Excellent delivery to extract that life from this surface. The new ball works.

Brathwaite c Root b Anderson 116 (252b 14x4 0x6) SR: 46.03
 

85.4
Anderson to Chanderpaul, the edge goes to Bell at second slip, at waist height, who parries it up in the air -

he should have caught it - and Cook manages to grab the rebound,

himself at the second attempt, flinging himself backwards and to his right at first slip.

Chanderpaul c Cook b Anderson 7 (16b 1x4 0x6) SR: 43.75
