^ They are probably looking at 1-0 series victory, they should've tried for a 2-0 victory I think.

WI 5 down for 88 runs with 152 to win or 23 overs to survive.

Make it 90/6

This is what last day pressure can do to you

Windies making a complete mess of it

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

16 over remaining. Windies are 142 run short of a possible victory, while Eng looking for 4 wickets

Panesar is going absolutely bonkers. He is a turbo-powered machine of frustration. :rotfl:

10 overs left for WI to survive.

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

My Dad who hates Tests just didn't move a touch off the couch for the last 2 hours or so :)

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

another minimum of 7 Overs to go

BTW can the fielding ask for extra time if light allows when he thinks he can the remaining wickets in 30 min time or so ????

I know that batting side can as for another 30 min or so if the think they can achieve a certain target within this time

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

4 Overs left

still to 3 wickets to get for Eng to level the series

Anderson gets one like Waqar Style : Inswinging yorker ..... not the pace but the accuracy is there

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

8 down, 2 more wickets and 3.2 overs remaining :hmmm:

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

Windies really put themselves into this position, you don't want to be overly defensive, because collapses occur when batsmen are overly defensive.

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

3 overs to go

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

Min of 18 balls to survive for tailenders.

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

Re: West Indies v England 5th Test @ Port of Spain, Trinidad

1 over for windies to survive and 2 wickets for England. I think windies will prevail.
