[Gunner]

Middle order looks flaky without Mitch there too.

Conway gone. A difficult 1st session ahead.

That was shit from him.

footwork like he was wearing cinder blocks.

Thought once Stead went so would have the conservative selections but alas here we are. Why is Larsen still there as a selector?

[MajorPom]

Did Conway want to be there? Absolute nothing shot, just threw the bat out there with soft hands. Only thing that could have happened was an edge.

He was brought back when Sam Wells left. I'm not sure if it is permanent or temporary.

[MN5]

Jayden Seales has a hell of a good record. World class.

Bugger, rain coming in.....covers coming on.

[Cyclops]

Back on but tough going out there. Kane looking very scratchy and the bounce maybe a bit inconsistent too.

[Cyclops]

And off again for rain, early lunch at 17/1.

[Virgil]

pretty good session for us, we only lost 1 wicket *

Agree on the nothing shot, but there was certainly late swing. Didn't know where his stumps were, thought he had to play, played away from his body with no feet movement, ball swung even further outside off, voila.

[MN5]

Tom Latham saying fuck you to Bazball, batting with a strike rate of 2.94.

[Chris B.]

Little Kane beaten and comprehensively bowled by Shields... but, it's a no-ball!

Cricketing gods pulling a WG Grace. We're here to watch Little Kane bat....

[MN5]

These inexperienced Windies bowlers are making the BCs fight. Latham in particular. 73/1

Gotta feel for Shields, he's a PE teacher, getting KW as his first wicket woulda been quite the yarn to tell the kids !

[Chris B.]

@MN5 Arguably his story is even better now - he'll have two punchlines!

[mariner4life]

you may not have paid much attention to the Windies v Aus series earlier this year, but despite a 0-3 scoreline, the Windian bowlers were all over Aus
Seales took 13 wickets @ 22
we're fucking lucky the Joseph boys aren't there.

[MN5]

What the hell ?

Williamson doesn't get out for 50 odd .......he goes on to make a ton ! this is intolerable.

[MN5]

Yikes, Latham gone too. Scratchy innings comes to an end. Windies persistence pays off and Greaves gets another.

Young in to join Ravindra. 95-3. Things very even at the moment.

[MN5]

Seales cleans up Ravindra. Beautiful ball. 103/4.

[Gunner]

Fuck sakes, we were going nicely last time I checked the score.

Come back to see we lost 4/24 or something fucking ridiculous.

Going to need our lower order to do a lot of wagging

The BCs do bat pretty deep.

Henry is at home and will come out firing, it might just be a low scoring test.
