West Indies show hitherto hidden steel

West indies is really showing the character of temperament in the ongoing series against England.English batsmen toiled West indies Bowlers to add 566 runs to their score card which clearly made ways to a victory against West Indies.It was totally one sided at the end of the first innings of the West Indies who were a made out for just 200 odd runs.After that things changed .English batsmen made a convincing score in the second innings and set a target of 503 .West Indies batsmen made a good start ,but the target was too huge to chase.At the end of day 4 it was decided that English is going to make the best of the match.But as the play moved to the final session of the final day,West Indies team glittered on the shines of the Powell and Edwards solid defense for 3 hours to save the match.It was really a feast to watch that West Indies audiences clapped for every solid defense by this bowling pair Edwards and Powell.
This was a great blow to English team as they would tasted the victory of Success easily.Hope they will do well in the next match.Meet you with more updates.
