Neither did the windies, they must have confused it with a t20.

Its calypso collapso time: 6 wkts for 18 in 4 overs. Jimmys farewell completly overshadowed by
Gus taking 7-45 on debut, including 3 in 1 over.

The umps are on a go slow, maybe theyve never seen a cloud before, anyway the floodlights are back on.

Bizarre innings from Ducky, nearly ran himself out, was dropped then caught driving soon after.

Atkinson 7-45 on debut is useful! Just missed Dom Cork's England debut record of 7-43.

Sadly the Ganjas were predictably bad.

Hopefully 'Mr Bean' will last longer (and be less of an obnoxious pain in the arse) than the other bloke you mentioned.

So innings loss in 2 days?

Vague memories suggest that happened in Cork's match.

7 on debut.

Does this mean we’ll not hear again from Atkinson a few Tests from now?

Windies narrowly avoided 2 day innings defeat. It will be all over by lunch on day 3.

Abject. Where is the team that beat Aus in Brissie last year?

Barring Laker and Bedser, history suggests this. For every Laker there’s a Hirwani, Krejza and Peter Taylor; for every Bedser a Massie and a Cork.

All over quickly. Jimmeh got 4 in the match to finish his career on 704. What a bowler.

Cricinfo’s bigging up Atkinson and that new wk Smith like they’re the second coming. All breathless and congratulatory.

Unlike Bash who didnt score a run, take a wkt or a catch. Quiet first test in england for him.

The last bloke to take 7-for for them on debut already on the scrap heap?
