Big appeal from Stuart Broad when he raps Samuels on the pads, but no dice from the umpire - sliding down leg that one. Samuels has barely played a shot in anger today but he does get the final ball of the over through the infield - only for Chris Jordan, probably England's paciest outfielder, to haul it in just before the rope.

"You wondered how long it would take England to realise that two spin options on this pitch was needed. It has only taken 20 overs really. Broad is bowling a decent spell. It is going to be one of the weeks where the cricket is going to called attritional. I would rather they turned to Joe Root next. He got Chanderpaul's wicket in the last match."

Moeen Ali hasn't quite got it right so far - he's just struggling to test the batsmen with a consistent line and length. There is good purchase off the wicket though - he gets one to spit off the track and beat Chanderpaul's tentative forward poke.

"They were playing the patience games and then Bravo just lost his patience. It was a good catch from Cook - any slip catch on this ground is going to be a good one because of how close they are standing."

Jack Mendel: That sums up Darren Bravo in a nutshell. Beautiful cover driver.. comparable with Lara. Then dreadful waft outside off...

Shiv Chanderpaul won't be overtaking Brian Lara in any hurry of course - more like a venerable old motor crawling past you when you're stuck in traffic than a boy racer screaming past you in the fast lane. He blocks out Stuart Broad's latest over.

Colin Stephenson: There is a couple from my home town, Warrington. John Crawley and Neil Fairbrother and Rick Astley and Jay from Five.

If 'Cricketers and Pop stars' isn't a reality TV show in the making, I don't know what is...

Mo' from Mo. Chanderpaul, who fell to spin in both innings in Antigua, gets going with a nudge past backward point.

"It was just angled across, it was a very non-descript ball and an even more non-descript shot. He faced an hour and half of Jimmy Anderson, with the ball swinging every where and left it alone and this was a non-descript ball from Stuart Broad and he's just stuck the bat out. There was one of the most pointless dives after taking the catch from Alastair Cook."

Darren Bravo was closing in on his first half-century against England, his bogey side. He won't get there though. Stuart Broad sends down a tempter outside off stump and Bravo, perhaps emboldened by having just driven the bowler for four, has a fiddle at it. Captain Cook pouches the catch at first slip.

Moeen Ali, whose first over before lunch was a rather inauspicious return to Test-match tweakery, is thrown the cherry. He gets some appreciable turn off the pitch - that is what he will offer over someone like James Tredwell, at the expense perhaps of a little guile and experience. Bravo and Samuels continue to push the score at a slow-and-steady pace.

Tom in Leicester: I think England are right to be stubborn by picking Jordan, he is an exciting talent Flintoff struggled early on in his England career before changing his action.

James in Sevenoaks: Good to see a sizeable crowd out there today after all the talk of the demise of test cricket outside of England and Australia.

Ben Stokes is OK to play on. Hard as concrete-coated nails, that boy. Is he OK to bowl though - he could be needed before long. The first ball after drinks sees Darren Bravo smear Stuart Broad back down the ground, but he doesn't quite time it and it's reeled in before the rope.

Liam: You so called journalists often refer to Jimmy Anderson as Burnley's finest (18:34). However, you seem to forget that two members of 90s pop sensation Chumbawumba are also from the town.

Can anyone think of any other cricketers who share their hometowns with famous pop-stars?

Drinks have been called while Ben Stokes receives treatment. It doesn't luck too bad, luckily. It seems to be his hip that's troubling him, actually.

"Stokes went for a slide in the pitch but there was no slide in the turf. This is Ben Stokes - the hardest man in the side by a country mile. People might remember Simon Jones doing the same thing in Australia and it ended his career. It was good to see the batsman not running the second run - it is good sportsmanship."

Ben Stokes has fallen awkwardly and it looks like he may have injured his knee. The physio is on. Let's hope it's not too serious...
