Dwayne is such a great talent. Unfortunately he's failed to translate that in to success. He still has time on his hands and I can still see him being a very good batsman at this level.

England should chase 239 easily here. With this poor bowling and fielding unit I dont see any hope for WIndies. Besides Bell is in outstanding form who cant be stopped with this WI side tbh.
England require another 56 runs with 9 wickets and 15.0 overs remaining, unless any Pakistan-like collaps Eng is winning this comfortably. The IPL hero Narine still wicketless a big flop in English wicket. Cook going for a ton here.

Not sure if English batsmen can be termed 'quality players of spin'. I think Narine's ineffectiveness has more to do with English conditions and unresponsive pitches rather than the batting acumen of the English players. These were the same players who struggled against Herath in Sri Lanka.
Looking back at the recent series' played on English soil against England, I have to say the win we had against them in Bristol looks more and more impressive. They don't seem to lose at all in their own country!
Looks like England even wining the last match, this twenty20 easily, Hales-Bopara in record partnership there.
Very entertaining & unfortunate 99 there by Hales.
