So what do we reckon....all over today, or will this match slip into Sat? Can't see the Windies hanging around, quick runs and quick wickets from 2 I say, followed by.....eesh, more quick wickets and a crushing loss by end of day 3 of 1st session day 4

All over today. WI out in the first session, England to lose no more than three wickets in the second to awaken HOPE... then crash to an ignominious defeat in the final session, including a collapse of 3 for 2.

West Indies to be all out for a total between 145-155.
Therefore, the target for England will be 358-368.
England will be all out something between 150-200. Innings lengths to be 65-75 overs.

Rashid is not a test quality bowler.

People always say that and then he rips out a couple of batsmen that nobody else looked like getting out. Say it again Matt!
Mind you, he’s probably one for spinning pitches, which this transparently is not. Shite.

Rashid is barely a county bowler on his form the last 2-3 years....but he's certainly good enough to be part of a spinning attack on spinning pitches, like in India, but on a pitch like this, he's kind of hung out to dry, it's not a spinning pitch, we've bowled first put nothing on the board and given him nothing to defend so not sure what is expected of him really
