That was my point! 😊Covered End said:It's probably not bad to watch if you're in Barbados.
I could definitely tolerate it

@Pelling1993 ‘s alter ego ‘Powelly’ has finally showed up with 3 overs to go. The effects of day 2 clearly still apparent.2

Gower continues to demonstrate how Sky were so foolish to let him go. Botham went at the same time and not someone who I, personally, miss but when one adds Holding, Bumble and very sadly now Warne to that list, that's five names that were very much once upon a time part of the Sky commentary diet that have now departed5

I'd say a draw and an England win are roughly equally likely, but a lot depends on how many runs Root will declare ahead. 240 would be a brave, brave call, but an hour's slogging tomorrow will get to it0

Draw - 50%
England win - 50%
West Indies win - 0%
Let's set them 260-270 in two sessions and then see if Lawrence and Root can bowl them out.

England 25%
Windies 5%
Tough to get a result, but to tempt the Windies to go for it, they'll have to make the target achievable or else Brathwaite and co will just defend.0 -
The current Betfair odds are:
Draw 1.13 - 88%
England 9.80 - 10%
Windies 50.00 - 2%
Those odds reflect the fact that if we are successful in setting a target then the wicket probably hasn't deteriorated sufficiently for our limited attack to bowl the Windies out (19 wickets have fallen in this Test for 354 overs and we haven't bowled them out inside 157 overs in the series) - and the target is unlikely to be enticing enough for the Windies to have a go. Equally, even if we were to offer them say 270 in 50 overs, the Windies know that should they make any real inroads towards the target we will then bowl negative lines (there are no automatic leg side wides or inner lines on the off side) and we will also have half a dozen on the boundary too. So it's difficult to see which scenario offers anyone much of a chance of wining.

I wonder what condition Leach's spinning finger will be in after his marathon effort over 2 days?0 -

It took us 170 odd overs to get them all out. If the Windies aren't tempted to go for a run chase we'll be lucky to get more than 2 or 3 out in 2 sessions.0 -
Disappointing, but you overlook WinLeuth.
"I'd say a draw and an England win are roughly equally likely, but a lot depends on how many runs Root will declare ahead. 240 would be a brave, brave call, but an hour's slogging tomorrow will get to it"
Maybe he thinks that Jaiyesimi and Omar Bogle can bowl us to victory.0 - Sponsored links:

you will see. it will become clear
TOMORROW0 -
CricViz app says 95% draw, 5% England and 0% WI.Guess they are anticipating a late declaration and we will give them 50-60 overs of batting at most.0

England definitely trying to get some quick runs, though it seems that there's a risk of a shower0

England 70-2 with Lees and Root gone already so 30-2 this morning off 7 overs0

Edit 74-3 and 34-3 off 7.3 overs this morning. The lead is only 170 at the moment so I can see a period of consolidation. And it's drizzling nowAddick Addict said:England 70-2 with Lees and Root gone already so 30-2 this morning off 7 overs0 -
Rain stopped play at 76-3 for a lead of 1720

These showers are annoying. More reliable weather in England today!0

Stokes out and a lead of 2060 -
The 60 on Betfair currently on offer for the Windies might look a big price in a few hours time0

Which is more or less what I thought last night. However, the 60 on the Windies might have been value had we lost the rest of our wickets trying to set that target and more so than the 9 on offer for Englandblackpool72 said:100 % this will be a draw
163-5 and 259 ahead with 70 overs to go0 -
Slightly confusing tactics by England now. Lawrence keeping the strike to go for the big shots, but not declaring when he was out0
