RE: England v West Indies 3 Match Test Series - lovebabes56 - 22-07-2024 06:30
I wouild imagine it gives us a boost in the WTC
I imagine in the next few years there is a good nucleus in this West Indies that actually does suggest that iif they can build on the positives, they are likely only going to get better & possibly stronger. When you consider their last test victory againstv us was on their soil in 2021/22 they haven't won a series in England since 1997. and overall over the last two years they have only only won 1 series against Zimbabe, Lost & drawn to Australia and lost the rest they played.
This series defeat might be a harsh one, but I think they will take some positives from it that does suggest there are signs there they could become pretty competitive over the next two years.
Who's next to visit?

Providing everyone is fit I expect England to be unchanged, I would however like to see Potts & or Pennington have a run-out. I understand that Bashir & Atkinson are new to the side, but Potts has played before.

England unchanged, West Indies have one enforced chance, with Sinclair suffering a broken arm while bating against Wood, Motie returns.

The new ball swing more than expected for England. Woakes wasted it by not bowling a fuller length. West Indies got off to a decent start, particularly Brathwaite, but 76-0 soon became 97-3 all in the space of 25 balls.

It looked on the surface to be a solid effort from England to bowl West Indies out for under 300, the wicket is good for batting & as the ball got soft Holder & Da Silva were mostly untroubled in their stand of 109. England forced their way back into the match as the last 5 wickets fell for 58 runs.
The fall of 3 England wickets in the 8 overs bowled last night took the shine off a decent bowling performance.

Root & Stokes batted through the remainder of the morning session after being in some trouble at 54-5 after the wickets of Pope & Brook. The century stand might well have not even got off the ground when the West Indies failed to review a potential lbw decision off the bowling of Shamar Joseph which proved to be out.

I see that rain has appeared in Birmingham. At least the scores are nearly level. England 8 runs behind with 3 wickets left.

The question is can the West Indies keep this performance up for 4 or 5 days. Bubbling up to be a great match.
