Not shite, in fact I think it's a great game, but I must admit to finding it difficult to get enthusiastic about this England v W Indies series. I was quite hopeful yesterday after both of our openers went cheaply as I thought there was a chance of a good close finish with England winning of course but it wasn't to be. I think the last chance of excitement for me went just after tea when a slip catch was dropped.

Still, I think the W Indies did play better in this test and I'd like to think it is a sign that maybe they will pick up again. Maybe I'm just nostalgic but it does seem to be a shame to see them reduced to a mere shadow of what they once were.
