  1. Anderson sets new England recordpublished at 22:32 British Summer Time 17 April 2015

    More from James Anderson on Sky Sports: "I think the difference from when I started is that I know my game now. When I started I didn't have a clue, ran up and bowled as hard as I can. I developed skills over the years that stand me in good stead to hold my own in the game.

    "[Breaking the record] has not been a target. I love taking wickets for England, you pick up milestones along the way. It was a huge landmark for me picking up 100 Tests this week, that's what I focus on.

    "My target is to keep my place in the side. We have a hugely talented side at the minute and everyone is very excited about where we go."

    Ex-England batsman on BBC Test Match Special

    "The fourth day and today have been the best cricket of the match - you could tell as local people were coming to see if West Indies could hang on. England did everything they could, the pitch was very difficult to bowl people out as it's slow and low, and gives people time to defend. Devon Smith got out slogging, Marlon Samuels has lots of talent but not much brain as he missed being stumped, made another airy-fairy drive and got out, and Jermaine Blackwood played about the worst shot in Test cricket. If you see one worse, you can ring me up - and reverse the charges."

  4. Anderson sets new England recordpublished at 22:29 British Summer Time 17 April 2015

    England bowler James Anderson on Sky Sports: "We got into a great position. We got ourselves back in the game with a great hundred from Belly and Gaz [Gary Ballance] but we couldn't find anything in that pitch whatsoever, we tried our hearts out.

    "My immediate emotion [when I got the wicket] was we were back in the game. We were hoping to get the win. Hugely proud, great to have my family here as well and taking over from an English legend is a hugely proud moment for me."

    "England missed a trick by not playing Rashid in this match. The leg-spinner could have been a real threat on the fifth day. But in terms of tactics, England were excellent all day. They just didn't have enough variation in the attack."

    ben brown: How did we not win that, how many overs do we need to get a very average West Indies team out!

    nick gibson: hat off to Jason Holder. But England have contributed to their own downfall with team selection.

    Antony Stewart: The media have goaded this young Windies team for having no discipline and playing on tilt, Holder has proven them wrong.

    I'm sure the knives are being sharpened for certain members of the England team already - but let's not take credit away from Jason Holder, who stood up to be counted when some more experienced players played some pretty awful shots today.

    "It was tense, but not as tense as I thought it was going to be. What an innings from Jason Holder. Clearly the West Indies have found a cricketer who is going to be around for a long, long time. When he came to the crease, it was looking like it would be all over by tea, but he barely played a false shot."

    Martin, Worcester: Why do we expect the West Indies to just roll over? English arrogance.

    "It was a magnificent knock. I like this Jason Holder fellow, I think he's going to be a magnificent cricketer. It was a marvellous effort from the West Indies, I think a lot of folks would have come here today expecting them to crumble."

    "A star is born in Jason Holder. He's so easy on the eye, like a West Indian Mark Waugh."

    What a game for Jason Holder - surely a contender for man of the match. With a previous best first-class score of 52, his unbeaten 103 came from 149 balls and has ensured the series remains level.

    And one stat remains: England have still never won a Test in Antigua.

    "West Indies have put together a tremendous fightback. I hope Jason Holder walks of to a huge ovation. England will be hugely disappointed, this match seemed destined to end at tea-time, but it's gone the whole distance."

    Pitched up, fended off to short leg. Only a hat-trick can win the game from here...

    Ed Hillman: Delighted that England have regressed to the disappointment and mediocre levels of my youth. Last few years have been all wrong.

    John Kershaw: Based on this match and terrible World Cup campaign, Moores should be making a few calls to sort out his future employment.

    Paul Collins: Jason Holder. Stood up and made it count when it mattered most. Take note Alastair cook. Well done Holder.

    Howad Horner: Jason Holder. The future of West Indies cricket is safe as long as he's around. Wonderful innings, wonderful cricketer.
