500 up, Broad just smashing a big 6 and looking very comfortable.
We should be declaring and having at least 45 minutes bowl at these tonight...I fancy they will be ripe for a couple of wickets - come on Jimmy!!

Have they had a full days play up to now??? I don't know and don't have access to a tele right now......

If so, they had 92 overs yesterday and have declared after 165 , which should leave about 20 odd to play with now. Plenty of time for some wickets today.....

The balls doing allsorts but catching the edge, jumping, keeping low etc. Gayle must have had half a dozen scares like.

Gayle, Gooooooooone as Athers says, playing an expansive drive, he's been playing his shots, hit a six, four etc.

Darren Powell in as night watchman.

Windies close on 55 for 1. End of day 2.

England need to bowl the Windies out before lunch, and enforce the follow-on. Should be all over by tea.
