Did they declare or are they going to keep batting?

 

[andrew_nixon]

If they declared I'd have said.......

 

[jeromedascorp]

Why wud ne team declare in the first innings with a score of 300? That wud jus be stupid to do.

 

[squiz]

they might wanna lose

 

[jeromedascorp]

Well after 311/9, they didnt score any runs, so overnight score was wat stood.

 

[f0bstyle]

edwards and best have some major pace. Edwards bowling it around 85-95 mph and Best consistently getting it at 90 mph. The best thing about htem is, they are very young. I think Best is 18 and Edwards may be about 20. Don't hold me to those ages, but they are young. They definately have the potential to lift the Windies bowling attack. All they need is a spinner
