A series of dead-end mistakes from the West Indies allowed England to return for a second time in two days, from 50 to zero to 95 to six, but neither side is good enough to offer the deadly touch. . England could not finish the West Indies at 176 in eight and take their own lead, instead Josh Da Silva made a terrific 54 in more than 51 overs in the cup to overtake his team 28 ahead, at 232 for eight , the balance test. Both teams are tired after two test matches in two weeks and just three days between each game, which is hardly the time to unbutton, let alone recover. Tired minds and bodies combined with an unreliable pitch created two great test cricket days and with more locals expected at the weekend, the atmosphere for the series finale will be fun, welcoming after the first two clichés. England bowling, like their strike, is fragmentary. Chris Woakes launched three afternoon wickets, but his line was again lost with both new balls and this is the last test of his career abroad. Craig Overton is an effective bowler or cross seamers in bowling, but he is not fast enough when looking for a seam or swing. Saqib Mahmood is the possible winner of the match in the final innings, full of youthful fun and threatening more with the new ball, reversing the old one. The Wickets fell in batches, the West Indies put up a fifty open kiosk but not long after. Their first hour was 41-0, the second in England with 30-3. After lunch, the West Indies lost three for 35, but clashed with their stubborn goalkeeper, Da Silva, losing only one for 98 in the last session, the soft ball made hitting an evening hobby two days in a row. A terrible first 90 minutes threatened to undo the last stand last night of Jack Leach and Mahmood. Wooks and Overton wasted the new bowling ball too close or wide. West Indies players left 12 of the Woakes’ top three overs and 33 percent of their total deliveries in the first hour. Accuracy is usually its strength. There was nothing like the same sewing movement created by the West Indies. The heavy roller had drained some life from the pitch, but even if it did, England would have failed to find it, John Campbell and Craig Brathwight were posting a third fifty-fifth opening stand in the series, again Overton and Walk they made it. hit with the new ball. Ruth was out of her mind and slipped, disgusted and with her hands on her hips in a full teapot. This time he could not blame Brod and Anderson. The answer, as usual, was to call Stokes in the eighth over. Hitting the pitch in the middle of the road was England’s answer, and they were also lucky, doors fell on the shooters and he was strangled in the leg. From the River End he would fly in, from the Darbeau End, he would scuba dive. Even Craig Brathwaite’s defense could not keep out of the pitch and did not even bother to look at the referee when he was hit on the board by Stokes. From the other end, Overton left abruptly, hitting Campbell in the front and back of the head in two balls and Sharmarh Brooks in the ribs. Root removed the slips, putting the men to the side, going towards the body allowing the variable bounce to do the rest. Brooks finished with the low bounce, Mahmoud made one to fly low for another leg before. Campbell’s mind was shuffled and caught in the foot by Overton.
