Commentary

  • 45.4
    Alzarri Joseph c Ben Stokes b Toby Roland-Jones 8 (24)

    OUT! Caught. Toby Roland-Jones to Alzarri Joseph. Back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pushing, outside edge to gully, by Stokes. A great performance from England as each bowler has pitched in. Of course a particular mention to Stuart Broad who surpasses Sir Ian Botham to become the second highest wicket taker in England history. England bowled brilliantly all day here taking 19 wickets, albeit with the help of some poor Windies batting. Most showed promise but nobody managed to create an innings from it, bar Blackwood in their first innings. They'll have to improve for the second test at Headingley, and value their wickets more, as well as cut out the loose deliveries with the ball and create some pressure in the field. An all round sub-par performance here in the first test match. England have flourished on the back of the win against South Africa, and although it was the key players that hit the runs with the bat everybody pitched in with the ball for a brilliant win of an innings and 209 runs. England go 1-0 up in the series, winning the game inside three days, and will go to Headingley in high spirits as captain Root returns to his home ground, where expectencies will be high. Thanks for being here with us and we will see you then.

    FOUR! Toby Roland-Jones to Kemar Roach. Seaming away short, outside off stump on the back foot pushing, well timed past deep backward point for 4 runs.
