Obviously, England would strike back after the defeat at
Southampton and in the end they not only bounced back at Old Trafford but
bagged the series at Oval.
There might be a school of thought that despite winning the
toss at Old Trafford and Oval, Jason Holder’s decision to field was not
correct, but the way, West Indian batters failed to counter the swing and pace
of England bowlers, the opposite decision might not have made a big change.
Stuart Broad became the new member of 500-club, while there
had been some impressive batting from Ollie Pope, who along with Jos Buttler
stabilized the ship on Day 1. On Day 2, there were jitters but that man Broad
pulled the innings out of the mud and his swashbuckling half-century set the
tone for the rest of days.
England would win and this is not a surprise!
