Akshat: "I already prepared for an "Edged and Dropped" comment off Joseph in next couple of overs!"

Nathan Lyon:
It's been a couple of exciting days of Test cricket, Test cricket is challenging with different conditions in different parts of the world. There's no limit, it's about going out and doing the basics right and try to put pressure on the opposition when the opportunity comes. Every run is gold, no rocket science there, we need try to get our lead as high as we can. I think there's little bit of spin there, there has been a lot in it for the fast bowlers, if an opportunity comes, I will try to take it with both hands, a big day is coming up for us.

Non threatening over from AJ. Batsmen and bowlers feeling each other out. SJ almost had TH. That one kept low. This is a bad sign re the pitch

Shamar Joseph to Head, FOUR, intent from Head! That's his style and more often than not it works for him!

Alzarri Joseph to Webster, FOUR, lovely stroke! 134.4kph length ball around off, Webster leans into it and drives it on the up past the left side of mid-off. All timing and grace on that shot and he gets full value for it

DROPPED by Greaves

Alzarri Joseph to Head, no run, dropped! How often have we seen the Windies drop a catch in the slip cordon in this game! In the corridor of uncertainty, pitches and then straightens to square Head up. He pushes at it and gets a thick outside edge. Greaves at second slip dives to his left and gets his hands to it but the ball pops out. Should have taken that

Another dropped catch...seven and counting. I asked Sammy about that yesterday. Said he was extremely unhappy with them.

At the Press Conference yesterday I said to Sammy that this is test cricket not high school and its absolutely unacceptable. He concurred and pointedly said that he has addressed it in a firm way. But the truth is they are not babies. They should take responsibility. This morning they were practicing slip catching for some 30 mins. Go figure

Alzarri has lots of fans

Glad BCA has allowed free entry to students in Uniform (surprised more schools didn’t take up this opportunity on a Friday)
