WI are not at 161 for 3 and they require 96 more runs with 7 wickets left to atleast to cover up the first innings of England and make some extra runs. Brathwaite and SD Hope are playing quite well to chase down the runs but the other batsmen were terrible to get out at less than 5 runs. They need better players at the top order to win these matches. I guess they'll manage to get the score and put up an extra 50 runs atleast but to win the match they would need to put up atleast 250 runs in the first innings which seems too tough for them.
I hope West indies doesn't collapses like earlier, they have a real chance in this game now, but England are giving them a tough fight. I hope this will be a close match, my bets are on England on thou.
England scored less runs this time in the test match. Just 258 and now WI have lost 1 wicket for just 12 runs. Although WI is the weaker team, their bowlers played really well by restricting England to a score below 260. They were 71 for 4 and had Ben Stokes not to get those crucial 100 runs, the score would be less than 200. The other batsmen just came and left. Roach and Gabriel played fabulously in getting those wickets. Hope that I get to see WI win this game but chances are pretty less.
whatever the performance of England batting they will perform on the bowling side. I think West Indies will not get any opportunity to lead the result of this match. England has enough strength to dominate this match though they have scored less runs. already West Indies has lost 1 wicket by scoring less than 10 runs.In this match, England batsman didn't do a good job except for Stokes and Root. Most of other batsman got out very cheaply and the credit should go to the WI bowlers who manage to put England under pressure. But WI batsman needs to do a good job to build a good total otherwise England will again manage come back in this match easily. WI batsman just needs to concentrate on building good partnerships slowly instead of going for scoring fast.
Tomorrow is the start of the 1st test match between Bangladesh and Australia. This will be an interesting 2 test series as it won't be an easy task for Australia playing on their pitches. Australia did perform well in the recent test series against India so they have learned a lot playing on these Asian pitches now but still it won't be easy and I wonder if the recent pay dispute will have an effect on the Australian players. I think it will be a close fought series which any team can win but I am hoping Australia can win as they need to find some form heading into the Australia summer of cricket where they face England for the Ashes.
I don't think it will be a close match between these two teams. I do agree that Bangladesh will be doing good in their home grounds but Australia many players are playing in IPL and they are used to these spin pitches. So they are the favourite team to win this match but they may need to put more effort to win because Bangladesh will not give up so easily.

Dhoni managed to take away whatever hope Sri Lanka had. But credit should be given to Sri Lanka. They managed to have the strong Indian batting line up on its knees at one point.
The match displayed some wonderful bowling performance from Srilanka and a good composed batting performance from the reliable Dhoni yet again,since it is not a high scoring match and was not below the required run rate,they had the time to chase down the score and credits goes to Bhuvaneshwar who batted really well till the end. 
Even after the good bowling performance from Dananjaya other bowlers were not able to support and take last 3 wickets. India side Dhoni gave a good support and Bhuveshwar played really well and used all bad balls to score and both of them gave a record 8th wicket partnership and won the match. Now i think no one will question Dhoni position in the team as he is the one who is giving support when ever needed.
Again Dhoni has proved that he is a good finisher after a long time. It was an outstanding performance from Dhoni and Bhuveshwar Kumar in 8th wicket partnerships. This is what SL need to learn because I didn't see in both test and one-day matches they never really try to build good partnerships. Anyway, yesterday it was much better performance compared to all previous matches but they couldn't turn the performance into winning the match.

England teams bowling seems to be destructive and defending. But the runs are quite low, so WI has fair chance. Now its totally upto their performance.

No doubt Kumar played a very crucial innings to make India win the match from almost lost position. But the actual binding of his innings was none other than Dhoni. His experience and guidance made the Bhuvaneshwar batting more easy and constant nurturing and speaking to him helped him attain this feet. Indeed Dhoni is still the master class among the lot.
As per me, Bhuvneshwar Kumar should be given the credit for India's win; his partnership with dhoni made the difference. Sri Lanka was already out of the contest when they failed to score decent score in the first inning, it was a extraordinary spell from the Dananjaya who kept Sri Lankas hope alive.

No Surprises in the couple of past days, England and India have won their respective matches as they were expected too. WI had not a single idea how the pitch was behaving. As for Srilanka, total disappointment. They had a wonderful start but lost their way in the middle. Srilanka are playing like Pakistan used to play, Collapsing all of a sudden, They did collapse in the Champions trophy too. I think both England and India will whitewash their opponents in this series. England for sure, Srilanka may win a game by chance. But the series result is clear. Its a one way road from here.
The West Indies collapse was beyond reason. The West Indies has decided to play Chris Gayle and Marlon Samuels in the ODIs. I suspect their decision might have been prompted by the abysmal performance of the West Indies team. Nobody gains if the West Indies keeps losing.
It was really pathetic to see how WI players scummed to England bowlers. Seeing this WI team its hard to believe if their main stars do not play there is no Team B available for WI who can give some good fighting spirit on the pitch. Well it would be cake walk for England to win this series .
West Indies and Sri Lanka both are big teams, and they had the capacity to beat any team. Specially SL was very strong in the home ground to win any test match in SL pitch the away teams will suffer lot. But now the ZIW team can beat SL main team, and Bangladesh will beat WI. At present two series is going on, so it will be a cake walk for both teams India and England. No extra putting effort these two teams will win series.

Can't believe that SL played so well. The bowler Dananjaya just smashed in and took 6 wickets out of 7 with an economy of less than 5. Now still India has a chance to win if Dhoni manages to stay till the end and I do believe that he will manage to save the game as he always does. Kohlli, Jadhav, Rahul completely failed in today's match. 57 runs left to win.
Only Dananjaya's bowling was watchable in the whole 2 sides of innings of Sri Lanka. Bhuvaneshwar Kumar showed some class hits and hopefully another all rounder for India. Good support by MSD. Let's see what Sri Lankans will do in the next match.
Yup but still he did a great job while Dhoni was the only one from India who was managing his team and hence both sides seemed balanced till the end. Had Dhoni not been there, they would have surely lost as there were over 7- runs to get while 7 wickets were already down. Of all, Kumar supported MSD while the batsmen failed completely. MSD should be again appointed as the captain.
