That is it from this Test. The series is still deadlocked at 0-0 and we now move to St George's, Grenada where the final Test will be played starting from 24th March. The first ball will be bowled at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT) but the build-up will begin well in advance. Do join us for that Test. Until then, it's goodbye!
Kraigg Brathwaite, Windies skipper and Man of the Match, says he wants to thank to the Windies fan for the support. He just wanted to play straight and stick to the basics. Mentions they would love the wickets to provide assistance to the pacers but it was a big effort from them and he is pleased. Adds to okay the knock he did in his hometown was really good and he is very happy. Ends by saying it was a tremendous team effort, Blackwood played really well and he is proud of the fight they showed.
Joe Root, England skipper, says Mahmood and Leach were brilliant, there has not been a lot from the wicket but they have shown a lot of skills and it is great to see the delight on the faces of them when they were picking wickets. States they did not want to make it too close and give a lot of overs, you can look in hindsight and feel they could have declared earlier but credit to the Windies for the way they played. Adds they’ll have to see the kind of wicket they get and then decide what team to play. Further says it is good to see the way Leach is bowling and he is finding his feet at this level.
... TIME FOR THE PRESENTATION ...
Then with a lead of around 100, England added quick runs and set a target of over 280. They have themselves around 60 overs to have a go at the Windies but that was never going to be enough on this placid surface to bowl a team out.
In reply, the Windies batted close to six sessions but still fell around 100 short of England's total. However, the important thing was they took a lot of time out of the game which is what they were aiming for. Kraigg Brathwaite and Blackwood were brilliant with tons. The former especially who batted close to 500 balls.
The game though goes down as yet another one dominated by the batters. It was England first who scored above 500 courtesy tons from Stokes and Root.
England on the other hand, did their all though on Day 5! Played with aggression earlier on, scored quickly. Declared with two sessions to go. Got wickets at regular intervals but it just wasn't enough. The wicket just did not play its part. It did not detoriate a lot and was still good for batting. Saqib was really good and so was Leach but in the end, Joshua and Brathwaite showed great resilience to ensure their side did not lose the game.
The two captains have seen shaking hands which means that is the end of the game and it ends in another draw. Credit to both Joshua and Brathwaite. The two joined association with around 15 overs to go, it was a tricky period but the two have fought hard and come out with flying colors. A word of appreciation for Brathwaite who is the difference between Windies heading into the third Test all level and not 1 down. A monumental effort from the skipper and he has led from the front.
