Yep, proper double take when he came on to bowl. Not much of a runup 😉 140kg aparrently! Desperately hoping he has to run a four at some point 🙂

I’m sure I read he had the club record for that when he was playing in England.
A proper athlete.

Brilliant from Windies. What a difference a day makes. Shaping up to be a fantastic match

WI bowled really well for the first 5-7 overs, but have been suckered into bouncing Broad out.

Yes Broady.
3rd fastest 50 by an Englishman in a test. Hilarious stuff.

Let’s see how hungry Jimmy is - does he want to delay his lunch 30 minutes?

Apparently he’s seen the menu & ordered for 1305!

It must be against the laws for the same bloke to play first and second slip?

Seems that dropping Stuart abroad for the first test of each series may be the way forward. Amazing bowling.

Test cricket.

Bloody brilliant, isn't?

Broad looking almost nailed on as MOTM, I'd say.

Come on Broady!

(I really wanted Jimmy to bag a few this series to get him close to 600)

Fingers crossed for tomorrow, I have a load of driving to do and TMS will help the day go better.

Watching the earlier days, what's with the stacking of caps? I thought I saw Holder with three or four on in one bit of the highlights prog? Has this been a thing for a while?

The umpires can’t hold the clothing so teammates have to do it instead.

Ah yes, I'd spotted the ball not being polished with spit, but had forgotten about passing clothes and equipment between participants and umpires.

It's a shame that a good series is ending with a WI slump.

Carlos has been a great addition to the TMS team, though.

Carlos has been brilliant, very insightful and a voice as smooth as silk.
Just need to skittle these wickets before the rain comes or the light meters come out.

Absolute nightmare situation for a side batting to save a game. Bowlers having frequent breaks, fielding team doesn't lose impetus like batters going on and off the field.

I'm still not quite sure what Holder was doing putting England in. If you opt to bowl first and lose the game it is a bit of a cardinal sin.

or the light meters come out.

I played club cricket with David Millns and still have a chat if ever I bump into him.

If I do bump into him (very unlikely obvs) I will ask him what the SP is with umpires taking players off even though neither side is complaining....

The light is something test match cricket needs to have a some discussions about. All to often if feels like the teams are taken off when the conditions are very playable, particularly with floodlights.
