Fred has injury problems and has gone off after no training today,not bowling early on and now only 4 overs in his spell, Harmison had to leave the field after being sick afte 4 overs. Not what you need when you have to get 20 wkts to square the series.

At last, Powell finally out. Good catch from Colly at slip.

Interesting, another 2 wickets couldve fallen in that over if the referrals system had been up.

Happy Birthday to Ryan Hinds, who should have been given out first ball. Equally, though, a reprieve is deserved by a man born on this finest of days.

haha bob willis just said both umpires are not very good and swann needs to appeal more like Monty, as swann didn't appeal for one that was actually a stonewall lbw.

Harmison bowling fairly well atm beating the bat a few times. 86 mph which i think is the speed where he bowls best. But so far the west indies look like getting past the follow on. If they do that, they have a very good chance of not losing the series. Now as I say this harmison looking as if he is gonna be ill again. No sign of fred bowling. Think Broad is probably gonna get a bowl next replacing Harmison next over. Harmy looks ill.

cant afford to be without harmison or fred but certainly not both. WI must fancy getting a draw now.
Harmison off the field. Looks really ill. Fred's on but not the usual fiery fred. He's struggling. Hip injury apparently.

games heading for a draw. Dunno why KP is bowling and Broad isn't. Why?
― The User Formerly Known As Pfunkboy Latterly Known as.. (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 17 February 2009 17:50 (seventeen years ago)
a wicket or 2 now and games changed. KP isn't going to take wickets, he's just easy runs for 2 good batsmen.
cant see where a wicket is going to come and you know who is still to bat
― The User Formerly Known As Pfunkboy Latterly Known as.. (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 17 February 2009 17:59 (seventeen years ago)
well well. fred gets the edge. Hinds out. But sarwan looks in awesome form and guess who is in next.

If we can get Chanderpaul out now, we should bundle them out for under 300 I think.

Good height too. Sarwan wouldve been a great wicket. He's playing very well. Will probably be made to regret that.
― The User Formerly Known As Pfunkboy Latterly Known as.. (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 17 February 2009 18:29 (seventeen years ago)
Sarwan out on 94. He had a touch of the KP disease there. Tried to bring up his century with a 6 and hits straight to fred. He looks utterly disgusted with himself.

Fred takes a few wkts to bowl WI out but clearly isnt fit. Really struggling so a remarkable effort by the big man. Harmison is clearly quite ill but bowled manfully too with decent pace (and making himself more sick in the process) was unlucky not to get a few wickets.Not enforcing follow in since the bowlers arent fit. Botham and co are moaning like fuck but you cant blame strauss. Im sure they know more about how ill/injured they are than botham and willis in their comfy chairs.Now lets hope england dont give away cheap wkts chasing quick runs. Add a quick 150 by lunch tomorrow is i assume the plan. Lets see what happens. Lose a couple tonight and batting again will have been the wrong decision.
