Roach 4-71(19.5 ov)

70.5
W
Roach to Woakes, out Caught by Dowrich!! That's it, well done the Windies. Well done Kemar Roach. Well done Shannon Gabriel. Roach wraps it up with a back of a length corker in the outside off window; Woakes slashes wthout any conviction and snicks a glove-edge through to the keeper. No problems for Dowrich this time around. Headingley rise as one to appreciate the Windies off to the pavilion. Great scenes. Woakes c Dowrich b Roach 23(35) [4s-5]
70.4
Roach to Woakes, no run, driven to mid-off
70.3
Roach to Woakes, no run, curves it back in from a length, Woakes pokes and inside-edges it into the off-side
70.2
Roach to Woakes, no run, good length shaping back in, Woakes solidly behind it
70.1
Roach to Woakes, no run, back of a length outside off, Woakes shoulders arms
68.6
Roach to Woakes, no run, nicked and falls short! Kemar Roach is running out of expressions. Oh dear! What did he do to deserve this? So, so unlucky I must confess. Should have had at least 6 wickets by now. Bowls a zippy full ball in the channel, Woakes looks to block, but may have gone with hard hands while doing so. The edge falls just short of first slip
68.5
4
Roach to Woakes, FOUR, short ball, asking to be punished and Woakes obliges in kind. Rocks back and rolls the wrists on the pull, a couple of bounces and into the fence
68.4
Roach to Woakes, no run, stationed feet, throws the bat at a length ball outside off and ends up chopping it towards point
68.3
Roach to Woakes, no run, stands tall and smothers the swing with a straight bat face towards cover
68.2
Roach to Woakes, no run, fiddles at a wide-ish delivery and the soft edge drops short of gully to his right
68.1
Roach to Woakes, no run, full and tailing back into middle, driven firmly to mid-on
66.6
Roach to Stokes, no run, blocked into the leg-side
66.5
C
Roach to Stokes, 2 runs, Andrew Flintoff had 5 Test hundreds, Stokes now has six! Gets there with a soft intentful drive through covers, much devoid of the mad rush bloodrage last ball, where he holed out to mid-on.. only to be dropped! Guess good players earn all the luck they have
66.4
Roach to Stokes, no run, dropped on 9.. and dropped on 98 again! Guess he's just lucky, or Windies plain poor. Sort of a hack this was, which he intended to play much squarer. But sliced it, found Gabriel at mid-on, and hammered home another life
66.3
Roach to Stokes, no run, gee, don't. No Stokes, no. He's reached out to such a wide ball and misses this. Tries to cut. And then some. Not to be. Sports a smile knowing that it could have been left
66.2
Roach to Stokes, no run, punch-drives it off the back foot, but hell yeah, extra cover intercepts
66.1
Roach to Stokes, no run, comes in as Roach goes wide of the crease. But Stokes has his stumps covered; leaves
64.6
Roach to Woakes, no run, left alone outside off
64.5
Roach to Stokes, 1 run, waits, sits low, and wafts a single though backward point
64.4
Roach to Stokes, no run, cannot pierce the cover region with a drive. Could have been his hundred, had he found the placement
64.3
Roach to Stokes, no run, punches it from the crease to mid-off. A typical hold-and-release shot with no followthrough
64.2
Roach to Stokes, 2 runs, he has so much time. Crease-bound, but he's having his weight on the front foot for a back of a length delivery going across him, so he's turned it away through mid-wicket, cocking the wrists and all stylishly
64.1
Roach to Stokes, no run, rocks back and blocks a back of a length delivery back to the bowler
62.6
Roach to Stokes, no run, overadjusts with a wide line outside off, that Stokes leaves
62.5
Roach to Stokes, 2 runs, and first ball from over the wicket is on leg-stump, as feared. Easy tickle to fine leg
62.4
4
Roach to Stokes, FOUR, not the first time he's done that today. The off-side is heavily packed, so he shuffles across a touch and walks into a clip through mid-wicket. Flows, this shot from Stokes that takes him into the nineties..
62.3
Roach to Stokes, no run, crisp drive, and this full ball deserves this, but he finds cover. Straight to the fielder, as the cliche goes
62.2
Roach to Stokes, no run, tries to play on the up but finds mid-off with this push
62.1
Roach to Stokes, no run, opens the face of the bat and steers the ball to gully
60.6
Roach to Woakes, 2 runs, presents a straight bat, and with hard hands, but gets lucky. The outside edge rolls across through covers, allowing him a couple to get off the mark
60.5
Roach to Woakes, no run, that's a good bouncer, rising right between the shoulder and the head. A little straighter and Woakes was fending this straight to gully, say
60.4
Roach to Woakes, no run, Woakes now gets a full, very full, ball. Jammed out, hurriedly
60.3
Roach to Woakes, no run, swing from a length, Woakes lets it go. It's his first ball after all
60.2
W
Roach to Moeen Ali, out Caught by Roston Chase!! Just credited him last ball for lunging into a forward push, and this time, he decides to just waft his bat at the width. No feet. Since the length is fullish, he attempts a drive and edges one to backward point, where Chase takes a good, sharp catch. Moeen Ali c Roston Chase b Roach 22(35) [4s-4]
60.1
Roach to Moeen Ali, no run, with two slips and a gully waiting, Roach pitches up, and Moeen Ali pats him to cover. Good forward lunge into the shot, nearly guaranteeing against an edge
44.6
Roach to Stokes, 2 runs, full and nicely set up for the drive, Stokes forces his weight into the shot while moving his feet towards the line, all along the carpet through covers
44.5
Roach to Stokes, no run, doesn't draw any sort of interest from Stokes, wide
44.4
Roach to Stokes, no run, hits the channel, and Stokes is back to shouldering arms
44.3
4
Roach to Stokes, FOUR, short and had ample space to crack the cut past a diving backward point. Cries of catch it, but that was far away from the fielder
44.2
Roach to Stokes, no run, slips away way wide of off, left
44.1
Roach to Stokes, no run, good length curving in just outside off, Stokes hoists it through
42.6
Roach to Root, no run, a yawning room outside off, Root practices his leaving dance with an air of nonchalance
42.5
Roach to Root, no run, jumps back and mistimes the cut towards point
42.4
Roach to Stokes, leg byes, 1 run, curls back in a long way and takes Stokes's pad after he missed the flick. Shouts of hit it as Dowrich ran to collect the ball, he hits direct at the striker's end, but Root was well in
42.3
Roach to Stokes, no run, chips down and across and drops the ball with dead hands into the pitch
42.2
4
Roach to Stokes, FOUR, that's feeding to Stokes' strengths. Pitched it up whilst offering room, Stokes crouch-drives to pose for the newspapers and to collect a boundary through the covers
42.1
Roach to Stokes, no run, full and dancing back towards off stump in a snaking motion, Stokes shuffles across to get behind the line solidly
40.6
4
Roach to Stokes, FOUR, edged and through! Frustrating times for Roach. Induces a thick outside edge from Stokes and it goes between second slip and gully. Flashes at a delivery that moves away late and the edge sneaks through Windies' lack of luck
40.5
Roach to Stokes, no run, gets across and goes hard on the drive, the ball nips in to catch the inside edge which further deflects onto Stokes' pad
40.4
Roach to Stokes, 2 runs, full and mediocred with width again, Stokes leans into the drive and places it in the same region
40.3
4
Roach to Stokes, FOUR, plenty of width on offer, Stokes latches onto it with a muscular slap through extra cover
40.2
Roach to Stokes, no run, blocked from the crease
40.1
Roach to Stokes, no run, on a length and just outside off, opens Stokes up slightly on the back foot defence
38.6
Roach to Stokes, no run, on a good length, solidly behind in defence
38.5
Roach to Stokes, no run, hops across, rides the bounce, bunts it at his feet
38.4
4
Roach to Stokes, FOUR, tries the sucker ball. And finds it nailed through the covers. Right forward, head-on-ball stuff and drills it away
38.3
4
Roach to Stokes, FOUR, another one down. My word. Stokes gets a life. Another. Spits up off a length, Stokes doesn't pick it up, goes hard with his defence and has the splice flying to second slip. Over him, reverse cupped and popping over
38.2
Roach to Stokes, no run, the wide floater getting a few inches too full. Doesn't pitch as Stokes leans in a drill to mid-off
38.1
Roach to Stokes, no run, 82.4mph, shapes up for a soft defence, opens up his bat face rather late too. Steers it to point in the end
36.6
Roach to Stokes, no run, behind the channel, and indulges in a block
36.5
Roach to Stokes, no run, angling across, off a good length. Treats himself to a leave
36.4
Roach to Stokes, no run, a loud appeal. With a certain deviation on the ball. A noise too. All of it turned down. Was another wide tease, and Stokes throws the bat out on a drive. The bat jams the ground, perhaps the edge as well as the ball flies to the keeper. Holder isn't on duty, Kraigg Brathwaite is on skipper duties..and they deny the review. Very difficult to call. Even for the third umpire. Had it gone that far i.e.
36.3
4
Roach to Stokes, FOUR, 82.3mph, a half volley. Compounds the misery on it further with the longest of strides possible. Right to the pitch of it and clubs it down the ground
36.2
Roach to Root, 1 run, a one-handed waft. Straight down the pitch, airborne to start off. Roach cannot quite clean up
36.1
Roach to Root, no run, 80mph, decent clicks. Starting from wide of the crease, straightening in on middle. Tappy defence follows
16.6
Roach to Root, 1 run, no footwork, so he's sliced this full ball throguh covers and gotten to the other end
16.5
Roach to Root, no run, na na na. Short ball, yes, but jagging away and Root has gotten himself into an ungainly cut shot. Reaches across and then some, but still can't. "Could have toe-ended it," Hussain says on air
16.4
Roach to Root, no run, stays in the crease and gets on top of this length ball
16.3
Roach to Root, no run, blocked off the back foot
16.2
Roach to Root, no run, goes wide of the crease but overpitches it. Driven but it's been stopped with a dive at extra cover. Roston Chase
16.1
Roach to Root, no run, back of a length and nibbling away. Beaten on the back foot is Root here. Oh Windies, you've been good here today, this morning
14.6
W
Roach to Stoneman, out Caught by Dowrich!! Inside-edges it to the keeper. Now that's a situation-defying drive. Hell it needed a rebuilding after those early wickets but Stoneman has decided to throw his hands at a drive that I'd term 'ambitious'. And if you indeed have to drive at something that far away, get your front foot across, closer to the pitch of the ball at least. Stoneman doesn't. And the ball seams back in from a full length to exploit whatever gap - lots of it! - is between the bat and the pad. Stoneman c Dowrich b Roach 19(47) [4s-2]
14.5
Roach to Stoneman, no run, clipped into the leg-side off the back foot
14.4
Roach to Stoneman, no run, that's a full tempter outside off. Little swing and the invitation to throw your hands at the drive. Stoneman plays the ascetic; lets it go
14.3
Roach to Stoneman, no run, stays in the crease and blocks this ball right on off-stump. Much better line this. Now to build on this
14.2
Roach to Stoneman, no run, so he's overbaked the line outside off this time. And that little swing makes it unplayable in a way the bowler doesn't want..
14.1
Roach to Stoneman, no run, shuffles a touch towards off and so he's able to leave this back of a length delivery on leg-stump. Roach is not happy with that line. Shakes his head and walks back to his mark
12.6
Roach to Root, no run, front foot arrested near the crease but the bat face opens slightly, accommodating the little away-seam on this ball
12.5
Roach to Root, no run, length ball outside off, left alone
12.4
4
Roach to Root, FOUR, there's my coffee. I eat crow. Just as I questioned his foot work, he gets an overpitched delivery. Gimme ball alright but look how elegantly Root has put it away, driving through covers and all. Gorgeous to watch. That's a right swipe for me..
12.3
Roach to Root, no run, ah beats him now! Channel outside off and that first day's nibble in the pitch. Enough for Root, who's feet hadn't quite had coffee..
12.2
Roach to Root, no run, brings him forward with a slightly fuller length. Defended
12.1
Roach to Root, no run, squirts the ball out to fourth slip but really, it's been played to both gully and the fourth slip, who escape the collision that could have changed the course of time
10.6
Roach to Root, no run, full on off, a flowy drive towards mid-off
10.5
Roach to Root, no run, greets the English skipper with a bouncer, not dealt with
10.4
W
Roach to Westley, out Lbw!! An action replay of first Test. The only difference was the bowler. Cummins then. Roach now. Westley's dreams of buying a ticket for Ashes bus are being lbw-ed by the Windies. He sits too far deep inside the crease, doesn't account for a full delivery that came back in after hitting the seam. Looks to drive, but the inward movement defeats him. Ends up playing way outside the line and is plumb. Technology shows THREE REDS. Hitting the middle of middle to be precise. Westley didn't even think about the review and rightly so. Westley lbw b Roach 3(11)
10.3
Roach to Westley, 2 runs, short and wide, sat up nicely for Westley who went too hard on the flat-bat-slap. Skews it off the toe-end wide of extra cover
10.2
Roach to Westley, no run, still wide, Westley won't play
10.1
Roach to Westley, no run, good length nipping in late from fourth/fifth stump, Westley trusts his instincts and leaves it on line
8.6
Roach to Stoneman, no run, dishes one outside off, no shot offered
8.5
Roach to Stoneman, no run, smidgen fuller on middle and leg, Stoneman's back knee doesn't bend as much, flicks and finds mid-wicket
8.4
Roach to Stoneman, no run, swings away late from fifth stump corridor, Stoneman plays inside the line and is lucky not have nicked that
8.3
Roach to Stoneman, 2 runs, that's possibly the best shot of the morning. Stoneman doesn't try to hit it too hard, just relies on timing on the punch-drive and gets it through the gap at cover. Good enough for a couple
8.2
Roach to Stoneman, no run, too full, too wide, nothing doing from Stoneman
8.1
Roach to Stoneman, no run, very full, veering in just outside off, Stoneman squirts the drive to gully
6.6
Roach to Cook, no run, full floater on off, Cook's soft-handed drive rolls to short cover
6.5
Roach to Cook, no run, down the leg-side, Cook misses the tuck
6.4
Roach to Cook, no run, good length, a touch close to off, lifts his bat and lets it go
6.3
Roach to Cook, no run, outside off channels, Cook won't play
6.2
Roach to Cook, no run, comes forward and blocks the length ball
6.1
4
Roach to Cook, FOUR, Nasser Hussain made an interesting point just before the start of the over. That Cook likes to score his runs towards third man and Windies should think about their field setting. And guess what? Cook has just soft-edged one down to third man, deliberately at that. Opening the bat face late at a wobbly delivery and piercing fourth slip and gully
4.6
Roach to Cook, no run, hits the in-between length and darts it back into Cook's pads. Cook was slightly hurried by the line, nearly falls over while shuffling towards the ball in defence
4.5
Roach to Cook, no run, another leave alone outside off
4.4
Roach to Cook, no run, fourth/fifth stump channel, Cook has got his eye-in, won't play at that
4.3
4
Roach to Cook, FOUR, Blackwood gives chase from backward point, but ball wins the race. Cook spotted the length early, transferred his weight onto the back foot and laced the cut behind square
4.2
Roach to Cook, no run, that's a wood-pecker! Roach cranking up the pace and getting this to straighten past Cook's clueless push outside off. Everything right about that shot; the line, length and movement
4.1
Roach to Cook, no run, gets a touch forward and leans into the defensive stride on the off-side
2.6
Roach to Cook, no run, good length, zippy bounce through to the keeper, Cook leaves it on length
2.5
Roach to Cook, no run, full outswinger far from off stump, that's asking too much from Cook, he won't play at that
2.4
Roach to Cook, no run, back to round the wicket angle to Cook, Cook square-drives to Blackwood at point
2.3
Roach to Stoneman, 1 run, hits the middle of the pitch and gets it to rise sharply at Stoneman who had to hop to tickle it round the corner
2.2
Roach to Cook, 1 run, full, tailing in towards off, Cook prods at the drive and places it to the left of point. Sneaks in a quick single
2.1
Roach to Cook, no run, way short, too wide, Cook does the leaving dance
0.6
Roach to Cook, no run, shuffles across off and pushes the drive towards cover
0.5
Roach to Cook, no run, 83.3mph. Beaten! Well bowled Kemar Roach. Draws Cook forward with a pitched up away swinger that swerves away ever so late; flirting past the outside edge on the drive
0.4
Roach to Cook, no run, way wide of off stump, Cook lets it be
0.3
Roach to Cook, no run, sticks with the fuller length, nips in a touch off the seam, Cook is well forward to bunt that out
0.2
Roach to Cook, 2 runs, offers a bit of width outside off, Cook opens the bat face to send the dab square on the off-side. England and Cook off the mark
0.1
Roach to Cook, no run, Roach starts full from round the wicket, very little movement inwards, Cook is half forward to smother that
