Rain stopped play.Yeah, now that West Indies are batting and already 1 down
this test has draw written all over it.
My predictions aren't normally too accurate though.
I thought Cook was an idiot when he won the toss and chose to bowl at Trent Bridge in 2015 when Anderson was out injured and then Stuart Broad took 8-15

I don't think so tbh.....I think the West Indies are too inexperienced and will really struggle to put a big score on the board. Plus their bowling is atrocious at times. The rain could save them, though I think it will stay away for most of the rest of the game.
It's good to have a day/night Test. Strange to see them playing with a pink ball though!
Yeah that 8-15 from Broad was something special. I hope he can do something similar. Or perhaps Moeen will be a match-winner again

I know the West Indies are more than capable of a Calypso Collapso but the ball wasn't doing a lot and its a flat pitch.
Like I said though my predictions are normally wide of the mark.
It's funny Moeen says he's not really a bowler. His stats say otherwise though

You might well be right. It'll be interesting to see how the game unfolds over the next couple of days.
Yeah Moeen is a definite Allrounder now....none of this 2nd spinner or a batsman that bowls stuff.....

Calypso Collapso indeed

A double collapse. I didn't think it'd finish that quickly considering I thought the Test would be a draw yesterday

I never thought it'd be over so quickly either. A great display from England, even if the opposition was poor. Hope they put up more of a fight at the next game on Friday. Back to normal day time hours but don't know if that will make much difference to the quality of WI's batting!

I don't think it's a good preparation for this winter though.
I've got to sort out BT Sports for The Ashes. I don't think the ECB think about what's best for Cricket because if they did Channel 4 would still have the broadcast rights. Do you remember how the whole country got into it in 2005?

No, it definitely isn't good prep for the Aussies! Except for the catching practice and honing their lbw appeals 
I also need to sort out BT Sports for The Ashes - I hate having to do it...I also need to sort out another Broadband connection since I dumped Virgin so maybe I'll look into any deals that are on offer.
No, the ECB went all misty-eyed over the money on offer and forgot about the grass roots of cricket. They came out with this BS about the money being good for the game cos it trickles down to the grass roots but it doesn't encourage kids to get involved, which is obviously where the next gen of players will come from.
Yeah 2005 was amazing and it made it so much more so because of the C4 rights. It's a pity. The Ashes should be treated the same as The FA Cup etc, on free-to-air TV.

I know what you mean.
The Grand National and Wimbledon have to be free to air ffs
I think The Derby too.
Who cares about Wimbledon. "Come on Tim". Ffs
Edit. I just looked on Wikipedia. The ECB actually fought to have Test Matches downgraded ffs
