There was a sense of perverse pleasure as I saw the team of overpaid whinging gits get bowled out for peanuts agianst a West Indies side finally showing signs of life after all these years. I remember only the back end of the West Indies era of dominance. The 95 series in England was the first year I really followed cricket, Walsh and Ambrose were in their prime, Lara had just done the double and England were woefully inadequate. There were hints of that all over again here, and it isnt such a bad thing.
Now if we can find a big dark hole for Ian Bell and Steve Harmison we might stand a chance in the next game.
