They still only need 3.5 an over.
After 17 more overs have been bowled, then they'll go into T/20 mode and pi$$ it.

Much depends on the new ball. The run rate's fine, so the question is whether a flurry of wickets will make WI go defensive.

A draw will keep the series alive, but I feel this is the best chance the Windies will have of winning a Test and still have the chance of winning the three-Test series.

Maybe if the required rate starts climbing? WI have enough wickets and time to do this without taking big risks.

One hour later and my confidence in a draw has greatly diminished.

'Tis getting exciting now.
76 runs required off 20.5 overs with 6 wickets in hand.

England in a bit of a no win situation here. What a game!

Premature from wiki!
With still 10 runs needed!
On the 29th August 2017 Hope became the first batsmen to score a century in each innings at Headingley in a First Class game, in a test victory against England.

Here for rides.
If the Windies are shoot, and are about to beat us, what does that say about England?

Complacent and a bit arrogant after the first test.

Fake news!

It's a bit more complicated than that...
Sometimes the better team loses.

No need to add anything, eh.
Except to say that cricket is wonderfully unpredictable (for some people
).Well done to a good team effort by the Windies. Who knows, maybe it'll rejuvenate domestic (white-clothed) cricket in the Caribbean.
And all to play for at Lord's.

2 days ago I predicted a WIndies win. I spent most of yesterday regretting my choice. Phew!
