West Indies captain Kraigg Brathwaite has come under fire for his tactics to begin Day 2 as the tourists headed into lunch well behind the eight-ball.
Brathwaite picked up the only wicket to fall in the session with the final ball before lunch, but it was an otherwise morning to forget for the tourists. "I wasn't happy with the way they approached it. The fields were so defensive. There was enough there in the pitch," said Mark Waugh on Fox Cricket's coverage.New Zealand great Ian Smith called the West Indies' approach one of "regression".
"They came out with basically a brand new cricket ball, but they didn't back it up with the attitude," he said.
Bit like the Sydney to Hobart yacht race .Only the press give a hoot

Three contenders left vying for Victorian Liberal leadership after Ryan Smith drops out of raceRyan Smith drops out of the race for the leadership of the Victorian Liberal Party. Matthew Guy left the top job in the party after his second election defeat. Why has counting for the seat of Hawthorn stalled at 71% since Sunday? Whoever ends up with the leadership, how about you run a party that has clear principles and has the courage to stand for those principles vocally, visibly and with conviction. Rather than being 'Labor but slightly less so'. 80% of Victorian's don't care about politics, so they just vote how they always do, unless you can cast a vision that gives them a clear, distinct and motivating reason to think deeply about their vote. The electorate might reject it, but it beats being a milk-toast loser again.
