West Indies vs England Cricket Series 2008-09

WI v ENG, 3rd Test, St John's: West Indies drew with England (WI 1:0)

West Indies drew with England on a thrilling last day of the third test at Antigua Recreation Ground on Thursday.
West Indies, set an improbable 503 for victory, finished at 370-9 but the tailenders held out the English for the entire last session, and in fading light for the last half-hour.
England twice declared at 566-9 and 221-8, while West Indies scored 285 in its first innings. West Indies won the first test in Jamaica by an innings and 23 runs, and the second was abandoned as a draw on Friday when the outfield was deemed dangerous at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.
The fourth test starts on Feb. 26 at Bridgetown, Barbados.

WI v ENG, 2nd Test, Antigua: Second test abandoned due to poor outfield (WI 1:0)

The second Test between England and West Indies was abandoned after just 10 balls because of a dangerous outfield.
Only 45 minutes of action was possible at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground before play was called off with England at 7-0 in their first innings. The second Test will be recorded as an abandoned match with the game on Sunday to be considered as the third Test of what is now a five-match series. The ARG hosted 21 Tests between 1981 and 2006 before the Sir Vivian Richards Ground replaced it two years ago ahead of the World Cup.
West Indies bowlers constantly struggled to keep their feet on the soft SVRG outfield which had been smothered in layers of sand after heavy rain.
England captain Andrew Strauss, who was on six when play was abandoned, believes the Antigua Recreation Ground would be safer.
In the 2007 World Cup, the game between the West Indies and Australia was played over two days because of rain with ground staff mopping up the outfield by treading down on small squares of sponge.
In 1998, the first Test against England in Kingston was called off after less than an hour's play after both captains agreed that the pitch was unfit for play.
West Indies lead this series 1-0 after they bowled out England for their third-lowest total in Tests of 51 in the second innings at Kingston.

WI v ENG, 1st Test, Jamaica: West Indies demolish England by innings and 23 runs (WI 1:0)

West Indies bowled England for 51 to sweep to an incredible win by an innings and 23 runs just before tea on the fourth day Saturday of the opening cricket Test.
Fast bowler Jerome Taylor claimed a career-best 5-11 on a lifeless pitch in helping to dismiss England for its third lowest total in 132 years of Tests.
Left-arm spinner Sulieman Benn snared 4-31 as England was crushed in front of an ecstatic and stunned 10,000-strong crowd that included Olympic gold medalist Usain Bolt, who celebrated with the players on Sabina Park.
West Indies completed its first innings only in the morning at 392 for a 74-run lead. Then the unexpected dramatic ending began as West Indies sent the England batsmen back to the pavilion almost as soon as they walked out. Andrew Flintoff was the only player to score more than 10, with 24.
The second of four Tests starts on Friday in Antigua.
