Edgbaston Test Match Drawn

It was always the case I guess having lost the opening two days to the great british summer, but rain on the final day as well, ensured the third test match between England and the West Indies ended in a very tame draw....

The only real notable point of action, came on the morning of the 4th day, when Tino Best became the highest ever scoring number 11, with his 95.

Best added 143 runs for the last wicket with keep Ramdin, who reached a century before showing petulance, by holding up a sign to West Indian Viv Richards, who had offered opinion on the keeper following the Trent Bridge test match.

It means that England warp up the series 2-0.
