    Currently 115-2 Strauss out for 15 and Cook made 42 just before lunch. Pretty slow start but now starting to come into it. Pietersen & Vaughan at the crease

    Vaughan gets his 50 on return with a mis-field.

    Vaughan makes 50. Maybe his career's not finished yet.

    Nice to see Vaughan, bat again soo fluently, I wish he finds his form back, its a beauty to see him pull those pace bowlers

    Centuries still flowing for England. Any England batsman (pretty much just Strauss left) who doesn't get a century in this series is going to look fairly crap.

    Collingwood gone for 29. Was scratching around anyway, didn't ever look like he was going to get a big score.

    West Indies 146/9, Sarwan can't bat so they're all out.

    Will take 3 days of rain to prevent an England victory now.

    The Windies just cant cope with the swing. No resistance from them this time around and an innings victory is inevitable.

    Close, Day 2
    Eng 570-7d

    WI 146 & 22-2

    Yeah, the rest of them are totally clueless. Sideshow bob is ripping through them.

    Wow, the West Indies really suck these days. It's not like England are the best team in the world but they ripped them to shreds

    England are the 2nd best team in the world so its not that surprising. WI are woeful and should be trashed in the last two tests if the weather holds out.
