Default W.Indies v England Test (R)

Seems this one has escaped the notice of people here.

But bugger me - England won!
On day 4!
The Windies second innings collapsed - well 'collapsed' would do collapsing things a disservice. They were all out for 47.
Harmison gets 7-12.

What in the world has gone wrong with the West Indies batting? With a player like Brian Lara in their lineup, it's hard to believe such a thing. Take a look at this scoresheet in the second inning. It's almost surreal.

A day of shame and apologies in the Carribean. It seems Lara had a dislocated finger, which maybe a good excuse for him personally. But the rest of the team can't have any excuses for such a performance.

Unhappy Daaaaamn!

Sarwan: Duck! (his second)
Lara: Duck!
Chanders: Duck!

High score in 2nd innings: 15!

Truly pitiful. Even with the W.I. playing like this, I would like to follow the second test in POS. Anyone know of any (free) live audio feeds? BBC?

So my question is, what did headline writers in England do since they couldn't run the traditional "England Collapse" headers?

Not free, but live pay-per-view video over broadband internet available at:

Subscription based live audio available at:

Nothing on BBC Five Live, or Five Live Sport Extra that I could find.

You won't find it on the BBC.

You will, however, find it here.

Next test starts on Friday.

Thumbs up

Thanks mac! You da man! You wouldn't happen to have any links for the India/Pakistan series, would you?

My immediate answer would be no - I only knew about the England link because I was listening to it in the car here and just assumed they had an online station.
However I could look around.

I don't know who's got the rights to it over here.
My guess would be sky - in which case it's unlikely to be free.

Why don't you check the India/Pakistan thread for that info? There is no known free service. But whatever services there are, are very cheap deals.
