    He shouldn’t be selected for the rest of the summer imo.

    Apparently he ‘spent 1-2 hours with a friend’, so hopefully that was worth it.

    Shows how important Stokes is.

    Windies are 437 behind with a wicket gone already.

    Crap forecast tomorrow though by all accounts.

    Lose the 1st Test

    Most likely draw, due to inclement weather the 2nd

    Strike Weapon bowler severely breaches Team protocol

    Should be demoted for the Series at least, if not the Season.

    No problem ... smack on the wrist, 'undisclosed fine' and a promise not to get caught next time and hey presto ...

    England vs West Indies: Archer learns his fate as downpour leaves host’s series hopes on the ropes





    Jofra Archer will be available for England’s third and final Test against the West Indies next week after being ruled out of the second match for a breach of coronavirus protocols, it was announced Saturday.

    The England and Wales Cricket Board’s statement came as the hosts’ quest to level the three-match series at 1-1 was frustrated by rain washing out the whole of the third day’s play in Manchester.

    Not a lot to disagree with there Dave. The match is ambling toward a draw, another 152 required by the Windies to avoid the follow on. If its a draw the best Eng can do is tie the series.

    Getting tense, 7 down and 15 to get to avoid the follow on, not as plain sailing as it was an hour ago.

    Look you two this is England. We excel at fuking up, its what gives you the emotional roller coaster that is at once addictive and also doomed to disappointment.

    37-2, going to take some magic tomorrow to make it 1-1.

    It could be an entertaining final day if England can get 100 quick runs.

    It could be entertaining indeed if England can hit out with the bat and declare leaving the Windies with a target that tempts them. Then of course, England need to bowl brilliantly to win. Simples.

    The sooner we get at that tail the better, they've shown they can hang around.

    The Windies have a long tail. One of the best.

    Well England shook of the rust of the defeat and came out firing. Good to see Shit Bloke make his case after being left out.

    Not long until they lock horns again, the decider starts on 24th July.

    I wonder if that will be too soon for Stokes?

    Gabriel has gone off with hamstring problem again. Holder is looking dangerous though.
