Off again. Looks like WI have been unlucky.

According to TMS this is the least experienced top four since the TB Test of 1989. That was Curtis, Moxon, Atherton, Smith.

Both openers were dropped for the next Test.

Might be play today according to the forecast. Overcast though, so maybe good for bowling.

Denly converts another start. Good bowling from Gabriel mind, stumps annihilated at good pace

Not a total shock to see Denly go. Always looked a bit vulnerable to the one coming back to him.

Nice piece of bowling though...

Might be no bad thing that a fourth opener is now coming to the crease. Probably don't really want the stroke players in just yet ...doesn't look bad for bowling right now.

Denly needs runs in the second innings or Root is taking his spot.

Burns may be in trouble here...


Yes . Thought that was out.

Good review ...would they have taken it if they'd only had two , I wonder ?

West Indies right on top now
