England played far better than previous matches on day 1. Although they had lost 4 wickets within 107, Buttlar and Stokes have carried England to 231 and still no more wicket fallen. I think they are going to have a 350+ scores which will be a good score.

Indian woman could not convert this well played innings into the victory and lost the match by 2 runs. they would be really disappointed with this performance.

In man after India winning the toss elected to bowl. NZ are on fire and batting at 135/2 in 13.2 overs. 200+ should be the target and this will make more difficult for Indian batsman to chase down with average of 10+ in over unless some one bats really well in India's innings.

England is looking good because of Buttler and stokes, though they were lucky not to get out, Buttler was edging here and there. At one point Rory burns and Joe Denly were looking good too and moving the scorecard well despite Windies hostile bowling attack. Joe Root dismissal was disastrous. He threw away his wicket very easy.

The second new ball is due. One good spell in the morning can ruin the party for English batsmen if both batsmen can play well against the new ball then England should cross 300 easily, after that new target of 350 runs Mark.

Jonny Bairstow batting in lower order in this match and English tailenders are capable of holding their ground as well. They have to watch out for any hostile spell.

New Zealand scored 212. It will be harder for India to win. They are now batting at 56 for 1 wicket after 5.5 overs. They lost Shikhar, Rohit have to play a long innings to chase this score. I don't see any alternative to it.

I feel sorry for India, it was really a good enjoyable match. Enjoyed it. Well played by both team.
England was 231 for 4 in Day 1 but now lost all of the wickets within 277. What a greate comeback by West Indies.

Eng Vs Windes

The second day of the test match was a bummer if you are a batsman. Two major collapses in one day, that's what bowler need in any test match.

England is on driving seat in this test match and its not a brainer that they are going to win this test match unless something dramatic happens here. Windies need a couple of miracles.

here, with the bat and ball if they want to fight back.

If England somehow manages to bats all three sessions in the 3rd day, then Windies are looking for a 400+runs chase and winning chances are thin.

But I  don't mind another collapse in the second inning for both teams and let's wrap this match in the 3rd day itself. which is very unlikely but would love to witness that bloodbath if it happens lol

We need to appreciate pandya brothers and DK who tried max to taste the winning moment, but unfortunately they did not make it.
