What a poor performance again if they cant bowl the west indies out they have no hope of doing it to the aussies Nobody in the world would get wickets on these pitches so I wouldn't read anything into it. The f***ing useless Windies administrators have ordered lifeless pitches after the Sabina Park win. These types of pitches will kill off test cricket if they're not careful. Take a look at the Karachi pitch. Sri Lanka have the two best spin bowlers in the world in Murali and Mendis and Pakistan clubbed 765 off them.

If we don't win 2-0 when the Windies come over here, I'd be worried...

A very small chance for England...
The Windies went from 519-6 to 544 all out, giving England a first innings lead of 2.
England were 80-3 at the close from only 15 overs and the Windies have already used up both referrals.
England will have to set the Windies a reachable target to stand any chance of winning the match themselves...

We've won a few... Pietersen was given out lbw third ball on Sunday and was reprieved via referral. He was then bowled off a no ball, which wasn't referred...
