England won toss and decided to field. Then rain!

[Bitter]

I just knew that Samuels would be out soon after getting the century.
He sat at 97 for so long...

[Aviator]

I have a feeling that ENG is going to bat once and build up a 500+ score in this inning and that will be the end of us.

Kraigg Brathwaite, at 22 years and 144 days, is the third youngest West Indian to reach four Test centuries, after George Headley and Gary Sobers.

Not bad company to be among!

It's back to business as usual with the Windies  They could have easily drawn this match. Losing six wickets in the morning session in the manner they did was inexcusable.

I'm glad a batsman was able to score a century in each innings of each match, but if we are to post challenging totals we need at least 2 centurions per innings with some supporting cast members as well...sub-300 totals are just not good enough.
Now on to "little England" for the last match...

(Chanderpaul hasn't had a decent score in back to back series; I think the writing is on the wall for him...maybe time to call it a career.)

What will it take for Chanders to finally retire? What next milestone is he chasing?

Every batsman suffers a loss form now and again.

It's been years since Chanders was out of form. He's entitled. We are too weak to discard him, rest him, yes but why discard him. Were Lloyd and Viv discarded at 40.
