When they can't even bowl on one side of the wicket they have no chance.

Bizarre that the best west indies best players are at home playing domestic one day stuff.
How that can have occurred you'd have to wonder.

The pitch is flat, the boundaries are small, the ball favours the batters, the windies attack is shit.
Big hundreds for cook and root are there for the taking.

The WI first eleven are playing the T20 stuff for big bucks hence this lot turn out.

As an Ashes warm up this is a pointless exercise as it's harder to fail than succeed against this lot

Holding may as well go and bowl, ambrose is there as well, they'd be better than this shit.
When you think of the attacks the England teams of the 70s-90s had to play against.
Fielding is woeful as well.

Remember that Edgbaston test in 95 very well.
Shot out for 89 second go.
Smith made 43 on an absolute beast of a pitch.

Can't be good for the game when two players making centuries has been inevitable for hours.
