@richard-futter tbh, Gower,Holding,Botham and LLoyd were well past their sell by date - and also (Lloyd apart) not very good - imo.
Ageist... totally disagree - apart from Botham!
I suppose its one of those situations where we agree to disagree ! Its not ageist - otherwise i wouldnt pick LLoyd as one i liked ! The comment 'well past their sell by date' was mainly aimed at their pundit style - they spent too much time reminiscing and talking about their time in the game as opposed to the new style of (preferred) added insight, which the likes of Key,Warne (RIP) and Ward provide. I dont want to hear about what happened in 1981 - give me some insight to the game going on .

@stuart-wallace Backing the Windies was always going to be the better trade; with the draw price and England price drifting with wickets, the downward trend of the West Indies price was bound to be much bigger.

Early wicket but no real movement on England price...
There we go. 2 down. 1 more (especially if its Root) and it will go north big time.

Amazing how much the Windies price has drifted in the last 15 minutes since the toss; quite fancy a back of them at around 4.8, knowing how brittle the England top order can be.
Certainly wouldn't want to be backing England at evens, and the draw looks short too - although there have been five draws in ten matches at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, so laying the draw might not be so straightforward as it often is.
Mind you, hopefully it won't be such a ridiculous batting paradise as we saw in Pakistan - definitely a place for draw backers rather than layers.
....... didn't take long

@chris-osborne more so now with Shane Warne not about for the summer, always loved his commentary. As for Bumble, I LOVED it when he was in the box, hardly ever spoke about the match just random musings
you are spot on, pretty stale looking! -
@andrew-macdonald Sky need to get him back or do something drastic with Lloyd and Holding retiring that commentary box will have zero personality between them
-
@richard-futter ah that makes sense. I was so shocked to hear his commentary for the ashes, thought I was hearing things at 3am all bleary eyed, then I read a bit more about his dumping, harsh!!! Place in the sun for him though!

Do BT sport have all the England test matches now? Or is it just the away tests? Sky won't pay the air fares
Sky still has the rights to home Test matches for another two years at least. Normally, it's up to TV companies to come to deals with the home nation when it comes to series away from home; guess BT just came up with the better offer, which is great news for David Gower, who was unceremoniously dumped by Sky last year.

I am.
Draw price has come right in to 3.3 - made a nice green before the game started -

Amazing ENG price on the road tho could be stupid -

LTD price has come down to 4 in last 30 mins.
Is i tlikely to rebound up a little or continue slide?I've jumped in on the Back side , Lots of liquidity on Lay side so unlikely to go upwards, and not much on Back side, so Order Flow dictates the slide might continue. Now down to 3.9

@stuart-wallace I think even the commentators are looking to the next test based on todays commentary, hopefully more wickets in the next test.
