Over-by-over report: can the visitors bounce back from their ODI series defeat? Join James Wallace for updates
Andre Russell joins Pooran in the middle, West Indies need someone to stick with Pooran. A couple of watchful singles to end the over.That’ll bring a smile to his face. Electric reflexes at slip to pouch a thick edge from a back foot drive by Rurtherford. England take another and Rashid has two wickets in no time at all.Debutant Dan Mousley is given a bowl, he scuds down rapid off spin… the first ball of which is a horrible full toss that is duly moosed away into the crowd by Pooran for SIX..
Oh no. Topley cuts a disconsolate figure and leaves the pitch after that one ball, there’s something clearly not right with him.Shut your face Wallace, here come the players and the sun is shining. We’ll have play imminently!stainsNovember 9, 2024 I fell asleep in the cinema earlier. Woke up with popcorn stuck all over me and walked out looking like I was about to film a CGI movie a la Andy Serkis. Go on then, how’s your Saturday?Full. Too full from Mahmood. Southpaw Lewis gets on the front foot and drives away handsomely for four. Lewis looks in fine fettle, he cracked 94 against England a week or so ago and notched a century against Sri Lanka in Pallekele just a few days before that.
Buttler’s first act upon returning to the fold is to win the toss under sunny skies in Barbados. He says that England, in modern parlance, will prefer to chase. You might know him as England’s greatest ever white ball batter, all whip-crack wrists and ice-veined composure. A player of such class and confidence he was made England’s white ball captain after Eoin Morgan hung up his armband. And yet, the F*** It famously scrawled on Buttler’s bat handle offers a glimpse into his own fragility.
