That wicket ball from Stuart Broad was clocked at 91mph - not too shabby for a man whose pace has been questioned in the wake of his recovery from knee problems. Kemar Roach, who frustrated England in Antigua, blocks out the rest of the over - a wicket maiden.

"That was a beautiful delivery, as good as we've seen. Perfect line and length, just outside off stump. He was trying to forward but couldn't got stuck on the crease and it left him ever so slightly. hat's as good as it gets."

Are West Indies unravelling here? They lose their second linchpin in a matter of minutes. Stuart Broad sends down an absolute beauty on a fourth-stump line, just nipping away a fraction off the pitch, and Ramdin is too late in withdrawing his bat. Jos Buttler gleefully accepts the edge.

We saw in Antigua that Jason Holder can play some lovely, straight-batted shots and his first boundary here is no exception: back foot, full face of the blade, pushed back past Jimmy Anderson's toes. He nearly gets another one, but Anderson sticks out a leg to make a boundary-saving tackle, meeting the ball with impeccable timing. The Burnley Baresi?

"The point I made about Samuels earlier was that, when he gets to a hundred, he would relax because he had to work so hard to get there. That's what happened the last time he got a ton, against South Africa."

Holder, tall and correct, connects sweetly with a trademark, high-elbowed extra-cover drive but the ball is well fielded by Moeen Ali. A second straight maiden for Broad, who has found a fuller, more testing length.

"This is a different sort of test for Jason Holder. There were no demons in Antigua. Here, it's muggy and humid with a ball only five overs old. It will be an examination of his technique if England bowl well."

The great Clive Lloyd was up in the stands, watching that shot from Marlon Samuels. You could almost see the steam coming out of the big man's ears. It was a terrific innings from Samuels, but if you were being critical you might say that the final stages of his knock smacked of a man playing for his century, not for his team. Holder is off the mark with two past backward point.

Karl: It takes something to go over and beyond a century, just ask Sir Geoff.

Jason Holder, who made that terrific, match-saving century in Antigua, is the new batsman. He batted well in partnership with Denesh Ramdin on that day and here they are, together again. Ramdin blocks out an accurate, probing over from Broad.

"He's a mercurial individual. That was very airy-fairy, he played poor shots after he got to 50, too. It was a good ball and he didn't move his feet. More times than not, you'll get out to that. It's a silly, pointless thing to do after you've grafted for all that time. You wonder what goes on between his ears."

He had shown the patience of a saint. After his century it was more like an unholy rush to get on with it. Samuels is fortunate to miss with one attempted whack at an Anderson delivery, but his second big shot finds the edge and squirts into the hands of Ian Bell at second slip. All over - and not without some parting words for Samuels from the England fielders.

"It's fair to say that England haven't rushed to applaud the hundred. They should have done better than that."

It's there! Marlon Samuels rather nervously chases a Jimmy Anderson delivery and manages to flip it just over the slip cordon and away for four. But what a superb effort from the Jamaican, who has shown the patience of a saint in this innings. Or at least...

"At the moment, this Test doesn't look healthy for a result, unless something inexplicable happens."

Samuels moves on to 99 with a nudge to fine leg. Nearly there, Marlon. Ramdin, who has batted beautifully in very awkward, intermittent circumstances, latches onto a short n' wide one from Broad and slashes it to the point fence.

"More than the rain, the sweating under the covers is the problem. That's what might make the ball do a little, too."

Rejoice. Cricket is back. Stuart Broad has the ball, and Marlon Samuels, who has been stuck in the 90s longer than a die-hard Supergrass fan, is on strike...

On a serious note, we have now lost a serious amount of time out of this game. Are England's chances of claiming that coveted first Test win since 2012 receding into the distance? Or can some explosive bowling, or perhaps some inventive captaincy from Alastair Cook, still force a result?

The restart has been delayed until 19:00 BST due to a still soggy outfield. Patience, patience...
