TRJ looking good and Stokes getting it off the straight again. 102 for 7. Normal service is resumed. And we can all smell a 500th for Jimmy after tea.

Stokes so unlucky. Jimmy will get a wicket next over.

blackeyedangles · 7th September 2017, 16:07

I think Stokes will have some fun with the bat later.

Corbo 61 · 7th September 2017, 16:11

Oops. Always a boundary after a dropped catch.

Jock McTuffnel v3 · 7th September 2017, 16:22

Cricinfo notes that it could be a double 500 after tea.

Jimmy wickets and Bishoo runs.

Corbo 61 · 7th September 2017, 16:39

Late swinging ball from Stokes. Good long spell. 119-8.

blackeyedangles · 7th September 2017, 16:44

That Anderson over impregnated me, and I'm male. How did he not get a wicket?

blackeyedangles · 7th September 2017, 16:46

And then a wonderful leap from Jimmy to catch at slip and give Stokes his five-for. I really hope he gets his 500 to wrap up this innings.

mustardcharlie · 7th September 2017, 16:47

Just bowl a straight one Jimmy. Far too good for this tail. The way he (and Stokes) was bowling before tea was just too good. Holder knows which end of a bat to hold. In a way, I hope he gets stranded. Would love his 500th to be Warner c Bairstow b Anderson 0.

Corbo 61 · 7th September 2017, 16:47

Stokes on board. Fifer.

blackeyedangles · 7th September 2017, 16:48

And Stokes denies Anderson his chance to do it this innings by castling Gabriel.

Stokes is good when it's swinging.

Corbo 61 · 7th September 2017, 16:49

Stokes 6-22.

Corbo 61 · 7th September 2017, 16:49

W.indies. 123. England 456?

Michelle Fivefer · 7th September 2017, 16:52

If it be not now, yet it will come. The readiness is all...

Psyduck · 7th September 2017, 16:52

Magnificent spell from Stokes. If Root had got him into the attack earlier the Windies might have struggled to reach 50. He shouldn't be afraid of taking the senior bowlers out of the attack if they are having a bad day. That's the whole point of a five man attack.

Psyduck · 7th September 2017, 16:56

Should be a tricky session for England's top order. They will need to leave well but if the Windies bowlers drop short they ought to climb in.

mustardcharlie · 7th September 2017, 16:58

Brilliant! Jimmy does all the hard work and Big Ben gets all the wickets. Seriously though. 8th (?) person to get his name on both boards at Lords. Pretty good company.

It's one of those little situations in cricket where the pressure on individuals is far greater than the pressure on the team. England would struggle to lose from here but Stoneman, Westley, and Malan will still be looking over their shoulders

Jimmy took a fab catch at slip, by all accounts. What a guy!
