Post Sammy's test record, then post Coley's and tell us if points were/are at stake who'd fare better. Shameless $...anyway

Hold my hands up I've frequently been very critical of our performances for some time including those in the first match of this tour but credit where credit is due got to applaud the application of the batting unit over the last 2 days and the enthusiasm and effort in the field prior to that.
Sure we're going to lose but we were expecting that anyway, sure the pitch was easy paced etc. etc but we took the game to the 5th day after being asked to follow on, and we caused a whole heap of frustration to a very good India team.
Big up John Campbell and Shai Hope getting the century (another in Shai's case) monkies off their backs.
The resolve and application with the bat was good to see. Is this something new, is it a change going forward, I don't know, I hope so.
I do know that it was just good to see.
Having said all that, the fact of the matter is that we are still going to lose by several wickets, a hammering however you wish to dress it up.
The fact that we can still regard this as one of our oh so infrequent decent performances tells us exactly where we are now.
So does this performances provide a glimmer of hope for our cricket
...I don't know.
Taking a line from the film Clockwise to sum up the plight of a current west indies supporter:
'its not the despair that gets you it's the hope.'

It is the posting of the same message in at least 3 chats that gets me,
@voiceofreason
Silence what?
Did we have a historic win in this test series that I didn't hear about?
@voiceofreason
Admire your sarcasm! Guess what... 5 Day test match...When last??
Last year when they beat Oz in Oz

Wait...Are we celebrating this match and test series in India?
😂
VOR are you really that desperate? You are celebrating 518 f0r 5 ?
@LBW375
He cannot celebrate that. Think Coley/McKenzie.
Now up step Campbell to make his idol look 1/2 decent.
