Series decider - Barbados Today

ST GEORGE’S, Grenada – A minimum 100-run partnership between opening batsmen and early wickets are what head coach Phil Simmons believes will give West Indies a fighting chance to win the crucial third and final Test against England starting on Thursday.With the first two matches of the series ending in draws, the two sides will be battling at the Grenada National Stadium to lift the newly-minted Richards-Botham Trophy in the Apex Test series. Simmons said both batsmen and bowlers will need to play key roles with the series on the line.“In the first Test match we got a couple of good starts from the opening pair and I would like to see another couple of good starts, or one good start leading to a 100-150-run partnership. I think that it’s important for us as a team to be able to start getting those sorts of starts and giving the batsmen a little leeway to play with going down the order,” he said at a press conference today.“The second thing I would love is for us to be able to get early wickets like we did in the first match in Antigua…. If we can do that and stick to our discipline then we can maybe get England out for a small score and then work from there.”
