Some good games lost to the weather so far.

Friday brings England against the Windies at Southampton.

The weather is certainly now the main factor. Lots of rain early morning but it looks to dry up from late morning onwards so I’m hopeful we get some play, even if reduced overs.

I think Windies will be champing at the bit for this game. Gayle, Hope and Hetmyer are all due big and expansive innings. The fast bowlers have looked up for it as well.

It’s hard to see England not being too strong though, they have the explosive batting that runs for miles and decent bowling, though there must be question marks about their capabilities in the spin department.

If it goes ahead, England to edge it, though I would love to see the Windies take a scalp here and they have the players to do so.
The Windies need to be more disciplined to beat a well oiled machine like England. Hopefully the weather plays the game as it has the makings of a cracker with two teams that are capable of posting huge totals.
