Even without 'naughty boy' Ben Stokes in the side, England fought back really well when facing a huge West Indies target of 357.
The lads from the Caribbean had batted superbly after being in deep trouble at 33 for 3. Lewis - later to retire hurt after blasting a ball into the back of his own ankle - made a dazzling 176.
England would have to set a record to chase down this mighty target.
But the England batsmen realised that bad weather was on the way and cleverly stayed ahead of the Duckworth-Lewis (no relation) calculator and when the heavens opened - they were six runs ahead.
In Friday's match - the Windies will only be playing for pride.
Self explanatory title. I abhor that nicey nicey, politically correct, pseudo-Christianity which almost always supports leftwing attitudes - which in most cases are profoundly anti-Gospel. This Blog supports persecuted Christians. This Blog exposes cults. This Blog opposes junk science. UPDATED DAILY. This is not a forum. This Blog supports truly Christian websites and aids their efforts. It is hardhitting and unashamedly evangelical so if it offends - please do not come to this site!
