Well England bounced back well in this final test match to win it easily by 232 runs. The positives that can be taken out of this series is that WI have some good talented young players and that they can be competitive in matches. The question is can they continue on with this form playing away from home? I think the future looks very good for the WI.

I don't really feel that the future looks good for them because the problem always in WI has been the board . Players who become popular expect high renumeration but the board doesn't care and the players will lose interest  in playing for the country.

Bangladesh is badly missing Sakib Al Hasan. Top order batsman failed to score a good one. They scored 212/7 from 44.1 overs. Bangladesh were playing good for last couple of months but today, it is unexpected.

I wish Little Mouse would accepted my bet. WI lost as I expected. England won by 232 runs and this should give England a small boost that they can win hehe. This test was hard for WI especially after having a bad first innings.

Bangladesh is badly missing Sakib Al Hasan.

What happened to him?
Winning in NZ is always a hard test for any cricket team.

Shakib is injured in the final of BPL. He will miss the full current tour.
But i don't think bangladesh team is not capable to win against NZ without Sakib.Today's opening was very bad for Bangladesh. They lost 6 wickets in just 96 runs which cost them the match.Guptill played a brilliant knock of 117 not out and won for NZ.

Shakib is a key player no doubt but Bangladesh team has some other brilliant players like Tamim, their keeper, Mahmudullah, the fiz, Mashrafe. I was not watching the live match but looking at the scorecard it's clear that Tamim did not well today. He is in good form which I noticed in BPL.

Hopefully in the next match we will see a very close match.

Nz are high on confidence after after winning from India and thus it was reflective in today’s match as well and thus brilliant performance by the whole team and turned the match into their side very easily and won by match by 8 wickets and more than 7 overs were left .

NZ always plays good cricket in their ground so do everyone else. Don't forget that in the past Bangladesh whitewashed NZ in their ground too. I think from the next matches Bangladesh will be able to bring some fight even they may win the matches. The recent performance of Bangladesh team is also good.

Netherlands is better than Bangladesh but we can't underestimate their recent performance.

I have not seen Netherlands so I do not have any idea about their games. I don't think they have the test status, do they? Are they playing in world cup?

Finally as expected England won comfortable beating West Indies by a margin of 232 runs. WI made 98 runs more than their first innings in the 2nd innings. But it was not enough to reach to England score anywhere. WI will need to think and make changes if they have to won the matches.

Their is lot of problems going on in the West Indies Cricket Board due to that lot of experience players are not playing for their country and playing the T20 county matches where they get good money for it.

Anyone see the great bowling performance by Sri Lanka bowling South Africa out for just 235 runs in less then 60 overs on day 1 of the first test match. Sri Lanka are now batting and are 49/1 so if they can get a partnership together they could actually have a big chance at winning this test match, they currently trail by 186 runs which isn't a lot if they can get a couple of good partnerships and could even take a nice lead in the match.

Bigger problem is that board are not even caring to resolve this issue which is existing from last couple of year and have left talent players out from the test and ODI side. Also they are not even worrying how badly the team is playing this days due to lack of quality players. They need to work on something in order to get the best payers back.

Who is watching South Africa vs Sri Lanka? Day 2 session 1: Sri Lanka is trailing by 128 runs with 5 wickets remaining in the first innings. Seems like South Africa did not well in their first innings. Can Sri Lanka take the advantage of it? Although they have lost 5 quick wickets.

Hey I don’t think Srilanka will be able to take any kind of advantage as they’re already eight wickets down in the first Innings, and now are trailing by 57 runs. I feel Africa’s batting let them down, but their bowlers especially Steyn bowled brilliantly to get them back in the match. I feel tomorrow Srilanka will be dismissed quickly, and if Africa can score 300+ runs they will win this match.

Poor Sri Lanka. They almost forget to win. Bad time with Australia, Bad time win NZ and another bad time with South Africa. I hope they find some confidence from this tour however it's hard to do anything in South African pitch. Sri Lanka scored 180 for 8 now.

Srilanka had a good chance in this match because SA wasn't able to pick a good total in the 1st inning, poor Lankan batsman, lol. Still there is chance if they can manage to resist SA at below 300 in total, Of course, batsman have to do some good.

A very interesting test match is on the way because I am guessing anything can happen in the match of SL vs RSA,Though RSA is ahead by couple of runs now but if SL can make them all out in 200 runs,this match will surely turn to SL. The pitch looks very favorable for bowler so SL should take the advantage & all out RSA as soon as possible.

right now South Africa is 80 runs ahead and they lost just one wicket if they able to reach 280 to 300 then surely this could be very difficult for Sri Lanka to chase this in fourth inning as they have not good and experience battling line up and Steyn is on fire with very good support from Rabada and Veron.

[Pffrt]

if SL can make them all out in 200 runs,this match will surely turn to SL.

Even if SL manages to KSA all out within 200, there is no guarantee that SL will win because their batsman is not playing good, moreover, the pitch will be more bowler friendly in the 4th inning of course.
