Proteas take crucial lead but Sri Lanka keep chipping away
DALE STEYN led the way with four wickets as the Standard Bank Proteas continued their run throughout the summer of bowling their opponents out in the first innings inside 60 overs. Sri Lanka only batted two balls fewer than the Proteas had done in their first innings but it was sufficient to give the Proteas a crucial lead of 44 runs in what is turning out to be a low-scoring Test match. Steyn took 4/48 in 20 overs to move at least temporarily ahead of England’s Stuart Broad into seventh place on the all-time wicket-taking rankings with the other three seamers providing five wickets while Aiden Markram contributed a run out from a smart piece of fielding at short leg. The Proteas top-order, however, failed to bolt the back door when they batted a second down as Sri Lanka kept chipping away with wickets to leave the opening Castle Lager Test match at Kingsmead reasonably balanced at the close of play on day two with the Proteas leading by 170 runs with 6 wickets in hand. The pitch was a lot more docile than it had been on the first day but there were nevertheless 13 wickets that fell compared with the 11 on day one. While the Sri Lanka batsmen struggled to cope with the Proteas pace, the big change in Sri Lanka’s second innings bowling effort came from the debutant left-arm spinner, Lasith Embuldeniya. His control had been poor in the first innings but this time he bowled with accuracy and guile and captured important wickets in Temba Bavuma and Dean Elgar. He contributed a good all-round performance by holding up his end with the bat as did some of the other tail-enders to enable Sri Lanka to score 49 runs for their last three wickets in 20 overs to turn what looked like being a three-figure deficit into something a lot more manageable. The top score for the visitors came from Kusal Perera (51 off 63 balls, 7 fours and a six) and he would probably have been less inclined to throw his wicket away if he had known how the tail was going to buckle down and play their part. The Proteas are in the comfortable position of still having Faf du Plessis and Quinton de Kock at the crease and the latter will relish the opportunity to bat with a fellow specialist instead of having to shepherd the tail and curb his natural instincts.
England can't tempt Alastair Cook back but the top order can at least try to bat like him
Subscribe to our channel: https://goo.gl/pqS0mLEngland can't tempt Alastair Cook back but the top order can at least try to bat like him. Do you know what England should do? Get down on their hands and knees and beg Alastair Cook to put down his microphone, come out of retirement and open the batting in St Lucia to try to salvage some pride from this wretched series. Cook has not picked up a bat since his perfect, emotional farewell at the Oval last summer and, in truth, he would never agree to return. But right now, nobody in this England Test team seems to have the application to bat properly in Test cricket like Cook did. No one looks capable of displaying the guts and character coach Trevor Bayliss admits have been woefully lacking during England’s Caribbean horror show. It was almost surreal to see England’s most prolific Test runscorer — looking as fit and ready to play as ever — sitting in the media centre at the Sir Viv Richards Stadium in his new role with the BBC as he watched one of his country’s most spectacular calamities unfold. The very old-fashioned but still valid attributes Cook always epitomised are precisely what have been missing in Barbados and Antigua, where the Wisden Trophy has been lost in fewer than seven days of cricket. There has been no stomach for the fight, no realisation England cannot always succeed in red-ball cricket playing the white-ball way. Instead there has been stubbornness, complacency and almost an arrogance about them. Yes, there are reasons why a domestic structure that has marginalised the first-class game does not produce Test batsman any more, just as the Twenty20 revolution has pushed the ultimate format into the margins and threatens the existence of the greatest game. And that is before the accursed Hundred comes into existence next year and sends an already crammed fixture list past bursting point. We will be playing Championship matches in February and October next to leave ‘summer’ free for the ECB’s huge gamble with our game’s future. That is not England’s fault but the point is these players are better than this. Much, much better than a side who lost all 10 wickets for 54 in their first innings in Barbados; all 10 for 161 in their second there; all 10 for 183 in the first innings here in Antigua and then, again, all 10 for 97 on Saturday when they must have known that even a lead of 130 would have given them a good chance of victory. Instead they could manage an advantage of just 14. Goodness, they have lost wickets in this series every 32 balls, which is an even worse rate than the 1985-86 tour that is commonly regarded as their worst ever in the Caribbean. Truly, they have been more desperate here than even England sides playing against the greatest of all West Indians. It is a real low. But for an example of how it should be done, England do not even have to look up to the press box to try to persuade their former captain, who deserves to be left in peace to enjoy his new life, to come and rescue them. Step forward Darren Bravo who, since calling West Indies board president Dave Cameron a ‘big idiot’ on Twitter nearly three years ago, has been spending much of his time in international exile playing Twenty20. Yet Bravo, who hit five sixes in one over during a Caribbean Premier League match last year, was discipline personified in surviving all Stuart Broad, Jimmy Anderson and Ben Stokes could hurl at him on an unsatisfactory pitch to reach the slowest Test 50 this century and set up West Indies’ triumph. Now that is adapting. England have to prove they can do what Bravo did and have a Plan B, to find the right blend of defence and attack and sell their wickets much more expensively. It is something they have failed to do ever since Bayliss said on taking up his post that he prefers two ‘positive’ players in his top three. Those words have come back to haunt the Australian, whose methods have still not resonated with England as
Na sser Hussain's player ratings as England suffer first Test defeat to West Ind ies
Subscribe to our channel: https://goo.gl/pqS0mLNasser Hussain's player ratings as England suffer first Test defeat to West Indies. As England slumped to a first Test defeat to West Indies in Barbados, Sportsmail's resident expert Nasser Hussain runs judgment over individual performances. Keaton Jennings - 3 Put on a good partnership in the second innings but it was mainly down to his opening partner and he looks vulnerable to seam, particularly on the drive, playing robotically away from his body. Rory Burns - 8 Played really well, getting his tempo and the balance between defence and attack absolutely right. Will have been disappointed to get out just before lunch to a ball that didn’t spin. But a real tick for me. Jonny Bairstow - 5 His technique looked better here than in England, moving back and across more to cover off-stump. Possibly would have viewed himself unlucky in this Test — bowled off his elbow and caught down the leg-side. I like an attacking No 3 and he is attacking. Joe Root - 4 Made errors with team selection and as captain he has to take responsibility for that. Leaving Stuart Broad out was a massive mistake on that pitch. Soft dismissal when steering Roston Chase to slip second time around. Ben Stokes - 7 Bowled really well. The pick of the England attack on the first day for me, before Anderson’s burst with the second new ball. Showed great fitness. Looks a little out of nick with the bat. His strike rate is down over the last year and I would like him to be more positive. Jos Buttler - 5 Got a good nut in the first innings when Roach extracted extra bounce and fell to a brilliant catch at midweek in the second — but a soft way to go. Moeen Ali - 3 Bowled well to start a mini- collapse on day two but two brain fades — as even he himself calls them — with the bat. A frustrating cricketer. Can be brilliant but also capable of ordinary games. Ben Foakes - 5 Kept well, apart from a little phase on day two when a couple of deliveries burst through his hands. Very unlucky when the ball ended up at short leg from a sweep. Despite being man of the series in Sri Lanka could be vulnerable if England look to revert to plan A with Bairstow keeping. Sam Curran - 5 Firstly, it was not his fault he was picked to take the new ball. He is not a new-ball bowler in the Caribbean. He is probably a fourth seamer. Also, No 9 is too low for him to launch his counter-attacks with the bat. Needs to work on the short ball. Adil Rashid - 3 Bowled poorly. Wasn’t trusted by Root on day three when he bowled only seven overs, making the workload too heavy for Stokes and Anderson. If it looks like it is going to turn in Antigua, England might want the more accurate spin of Jack Leach. James Anderson - 9 Turned around the first day with his mastery of the second new ball and his first-innings figures were remarkable. He is actually getting better with age and the batsmen keep letting him down. A team score of 77 did not provide him with much of a rest. WEST INDIES John Campbell - 6 Looked very organised and showed good composure. Took a good catch. Fine start to his Test career. Kraigg Brathwaite - 6 Involved in two 50 partnerships but is a player capable of big innings and he will want to convert these starts. Shai Hope - 6 After a recent poor patch he would have been pleased to see England — a team he always does well against. Outstanding stumping for the last wicket too. Darren Bravo - 3 Looked like a guy who hasn’t batted much recently, highlighting the importance of preparation. You cannot just throw people into Test cricket. Roston Chase - 9 Runs in the first innings and performance of a lifetime with the ball. Chase (right) probably could not believe how England played him but answered the question West Indies had before the match. If they played four quicks, was he up to the spin role? Shimron Hetmyer - 7 Very enjoyable to watch. A big future ahead of him.
