61-8
Recovered from worse positions than this before and gone on to win.

Slim. Very slim.

That's now a 449 lead with no wickets taken in the first session. Only one winner in this match.

Nice to see the Windies back winning again though. It was shocking to see how far they'd tumbled from the team I used to love watching in the 70s and 80s.

Indeed brought up watching Sobers et al too long been in the doldrums
The small matter of 628 to win

I wonder when that last happened in a full day's play.

I think Sri Lanka may have managed it just last month against New Zealand? They racked up a massive Day Four partnership and guided the Test to a draw.
Pitch seems to have died completely, though may yet turn in the last couple of days. Rain forecast tomorrow, still a vague glimmer of hope for the draw, though it'd be a titanic battle to get there.
