Any thoughts on Ed Rainsford as commentator? Was a bit tentative yesterday but finding his feet now with Manners as company (which is a kinder proposition than bearing with Mr Fredericks on mic debut).

We scored 370 in the first innings of the test back in 2011, can we beat that?
Why not? We can even score 400 and look for innings win ;)

Meth and Shingi making some progress here. Don't know how they will bowl, but this 7-11 is our strongest for many years.

I'd rather go to the dentist than listen to Fredericks. I lose the will to live when I hear his voice.

4/160 today and 150 overs batted out. Pretty good backing up from the wasteland of the Windies. 400 would be a great milestone if they can make it.

Ahh. Meth goes. Nice 20 odd. Hopefully Jarvis can make it to double figures and get us to 400.
