West Indies batted brilliantly in the first innings of the second Test between West Indies and England.Perhaps their innings was a wake-up call to their fans that they could win or draw the second Test match against England.But no we saw an exceptional batting performance from them in the second innings which was a poor performance to say the least. West Indies managed to score only 143 runs in their second innings. England's young spin bowler Shoaib Bashir single-handedly stymied all the West Indies' batsmen in their second innings. He achieved the feat of taking five wickets in that match, perhaps the first five-wicket haul in his Test career. Due to his outstanding performance in both innings of the second Test match, Ollie Pope was selected as Man of the Match. The England team took the Test series with one match in hand.
Only one test match has left in the series between England and West Indies. This series has been won already by the England team and no match won by the West Indies but there are still chances for the West Indies team to maintain their respect by winning the last match and they could win it if they are willing to focus and dedication.
They have to remember the Australia series that how they gave defeat to the Australian team with full struggle. There is feeling to me that they will win this last match and will have something to celebrate in this series. This is a time for them to change the history as they changed in Australia. Let's hope for a more close fight between the two teams in this final test.
And for the England,
Ollie Pope: England aiming to become 'more and more ruthless'
