Right  now  I'm  celebrating  the  fact  that  I  didn't  get  SKY  so  I  could  watch ( so  very  nearly  said  enjoy yell)  the  England  v West Indies  test  cricket.  After  all  the  wonderful  reports  of  how  the  team  is  building  up  into  a  World  Beating  Side  it  seems  that  it's  just  another  race  to  the  pits.  I'm  getting  the  feeling  that  watching  Sunday  football  between  a  couple  of  over age  pub  teams  will  bring  much  more  excitement  &  pleasure  until  Easter Egg  Rolling  commences  wink

Well the Third and Final Test Match against the W. Indies starts today and it will be the final game for "The Wisden Trophy " ~~  in future it will be for the Richards ~~ Botham Trophy.  With the threat of rain over part of the w/end I reckon the Windies just need to hold on for a draw in order to maintain their hold on the Wisden.

But with a 6' 7" 22 stone off spinner I won't be arguing the toss  !!smileinnocent

Mr Cornwall is indeed a giant of a man and looks a little out of place on a cricket field. His stature is more akin to a Linebacker but there's absolutely nothing wrong with his reactions, after taking a superb catch at slip.

Today will be crucial, as the forecast for tomorrow is grim.

So the Windies eased down to the inevitable defeat and loss of both the Series AND the Wisden Trophy.

But as I said some days ago, I'm just thankful that they bothered to come to this virus riddled country to play any form of cricket at all.

So  Thank you all, West Indies players, Management, Baggage staff  Et Al. Now enjoy yourselves !!
