Seriously. When it is that hard to take wickets why does a bowler bowl no balls. It wasn't as if it were his first one - it was his fifth. For the sake of going back a few inches. Brain dead.

I'm guessing England took a wicket off a no ball? Who was it?

Mahmood - would have been his first Test wicket too!
I imagine that when the tour party was picked, very few pundits would have imagined that Dan Lawrence would be second in the 2022 Test bowling averages by now.
And absolutely none at all would have guessed he'd only be behind Ross Taylor.
It would take at least six days cricket to get a result on this wicket. I understand why they have done it but it's not good to watch.
I mean, it’s not awful to watch.
Not awful, just tiresome.
W.indies have no thought of doing anything but to bat, bat & bat some more......without accumulating many runs. I dont think I've seen a team take the 2nd new ball & the opposition having less than 400 runs.
This is a dead game. Even if it were a timeless test the teams would have to call it a draw as England would need to catch their flight home !
I hate there being DRS but the bowling side not being able to use it. Australia showed at Headingley in 2019 how "using up your reviews" takes away the fact there could be an umpiring howler & it goes unpunished. DRS should be taken away from the players & put it the hands of the umpires, like VAR in football.
In this situation, I think the previous rule where the reviews are renewed when a new ball is taken seems fairer. 182 overs is an awful lot with just 3 reviews
Leach 3-118 off one ball short of 70 overs. His average prior to this had been 22 overs per innings and he surpassed that with his 27 maidens alone in this innings
Those England batsmen who came out to the Windies to be destroyed by their legendary fast bowlers on fast bouncy wickets, would be looking longingly at this pitch with the Windies opening the bowling with a spinner.

Would have been his maiden wicket

The only way this game can be interesting is if England can bowl the Windies out fairly cheaply, bat quickly and declare, but it's a very long shot

But this match is so boring I forgot we were playing until about 10 minutes ago.

I could definitely tolerate it
