All over. Two in two balls, both SHOCKING decisions by Tiffin. MacGill undeservedly finishes with two wickets.

most teams suffer due to poor decisions :P

They've certainly to quote the old cliche got plenty of positives they can take out of this game. Edwards bowled at a pace I haven't seen from him since he broke Graham Thorpe's finger during a ferocious spell at Old Trafford a few years back.

They're a young team and can get better. They definitely weren't outclassed by the world's number 1 team, and that alone is cause for West Indian supporters to be optimistic.

my heart is full with tears of joyous appreciation from u guys/gals :22:

:22: :) tks

I agree. Two enjoyable Test matches.

Even my wife who supposedly doesn't like cricket got into both these games to a degree.

As a biased Englishman I'm encouraged by how ordinary the Australians looked in this game. MacGill was awful today. He doesn't look like a long-term (or even short-term) option to carry on where Warne left off, and unless they can find someone to replace him, their seamers are going to have a very heavy workload. I think they're seriously going to need to take a look at playing an extra bowler, because they won't win many Test matches against top sides playing like that.

Yes we are in deep trouble with spin options.
