A photographer has just snuck beneath Daryl Harper's window, and popped up to take a few photos. Harper glared. No guessing who'll be on the back pages of the locals tomorrow!

WI no question r hard done by these 2 LBW

**just 23 more need to avoid follow-on

If Windies don't lose any more wickets today and finish on 410 odd for 5 they would back themselves to get upto 500 tomorrow which would almost ensure safety. England will then have to bat for two sessions and a bit to get a 350-375 lead which would leave them with less than a day to bowl WI out a second time, highly unlikely on this flat pitch
Re: Eng vs WI Test 4
WI finish the 3rd day with 398/5. An excellent innings by Sarwan on 184.

*app k kehney kee dair the

Unlucky not to get a triple hundred
Sarwan went for an expansive drive against Sidebottom and is bowled for** 291** off an inside edge, the ball knocking the off-stump off
Wonderful effort from him considering when he came out to bat Windies were 13/1 replying to England's 600/6d
WINDIES 595/6
West Indies have a lead now
Gerome Taylor pulls Sidebottom (how's that for a name!) for 6 & 4
607/6
Re: Eng vs WI Test 4
Wiendies piling on the misery for England
WI 701-7
Who says only sub-continental pitches are flat
Boycott thinks most English pitches are flat (barring one or two) and should be relaid?
WEST INDIES 710/8
Cricinfo - Records - Test matches - Highest innings totals
Re: Eng vs WI Test 4
^Exactly. But people only see faults in subcontinent pitches.
Anyway, this match heading toward a draw. WI should declare today. They're 725/8 with 10 overs remaining in the day.
I think Windies should bat till they are bowled out. There is little pointing in declaring. Who knows England might collapse under pressure tomorrow. Even in Karachi we saw some late drama on the final day
746/8
749/9
Windies have declared wth a lead of 149
Re: Eng vs WI Test 4
