The importance of Broads 60 odd run cameo is telling right now. With the lead still over 300 and 2 down. When we were staring being all out for under 300 at one point. Great bowling by archer there.. thumbup emoji

Chipping away at them, Archers short ball for the second wicket was a snorter

Windies most definitely on the ropes, here. This is the turning point of the match, one way or the other.

Good start after tea Anderson with a wicket.

There seems to be a lot of action at OT considering @Indaparkside ’s weather prediction.

Well done Jimmy. He seems to make more history in every spell the lad bowls.

Are the West Indies any good nowadays? They were garbage a couple of years ago. I haven’t been watching this series as thought it was a mismatch so was surprised when they won the first test.

They are improving and we gifted them the first test with our calamitous first innings

They always are for playing England and they did beat us last time we played them.

Always listen to Marvin for the weather mate

Got an end open now, 5 down

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

It's going to take a monumental rearguard action from Holder and Blackwood to save this for them. But I just don't see it, somehow. England have got too much firepower.

110/6wkts,Blackwood out for 26.

 

[jimharri]

6 down now. Blackwood gone. Still 60 short of the follow on mark.

@Indaparkside is blaming the official weather forecaster. I’m not sure if that’s Marvin or the Met Officr?

The miserable fooker is still saying it will be a draw as he’s expecting rain tomorrow and Monday.

@ancoats will be blaming Root for any dodgy weather knocking about the next few days ;-)

I think we should get a combined weather forecast from @ancoats @Indaparkside and Marvin

Gloomy with a major chance on pissing it down on someone’s parade

How’s the Yorks/Lancs “friendly” going at Headingley mate? Is it still happening?

Lancs 180 odd for 5

Never thought they would get a full days play in yesterday odds on now an England win.
