  1. WI 25-3published at 16:52 British Summer Time 2 May 2015

    A great contest between James Anderson and Shiv Chanderpaul: one man all easy, fluid grace; the other cussed, stubborn survival instinct. Chanderpaul blocks out studiously, then picks up two through midwicket.

  4. WI 23-3published at 16:47 British Summer Time 2 May 2015

    England bowling coach Ottis Gibson enjoyed watching that one on the laptop - he's giving it the full double fist-pump on the balcony. Shiv Chanderpaul gets off the mark with a single to square leg.

    "Huge, huge, huge wicket. These are the best two players for West Indies. England haven't got a good score but I fancy they can bowl this West Indies team out for less."

    Ripping out middle stump two-thirds of the way up. Samuels sheepishly avoids watching the review on the big screen, he knows he's frittered one of his side's challenges there. Done up like a kipper by Jimmy, two overs of outswing, a subtle change of seam position, and the ball dips in and pins him on the crease. Lovely.

    "Just a possibility it might have done too much but the umpire has given him out so it only has to be clipping."

    Now then! Marlon Samuels misses an inswinger from Jimmy Anderson and is hit plumb in front - he's going to review it but he looks dead...

    "They are two different types of bowlers Anderson and Broad, that's why they complement each other."

    Crowd

    Samuels absolutely smears Broad through the off-side, but then is beaten all ends up by one that holds its line from the England bowler. Good contest, and as this picture from our colleague Tim Oscroft shows, all eyes are glued to the action in the middle at the Kensington Oval.

    "These are the best Test matches, the low scoring ones. It's not because it's a bad pitch, there is just a little bit in it for the bowlers, which is great."

  12. WI 16-2 (Anderson 4-3-2-2)published at 16:32 British Summer Time 2 May 2015

    Anderson is bowling with real venom here. He pins Darren Bravo with such a good bouncer that the batsman can't get out of the way in time and is rapped on the back. That will be sore, get the frozen peas on that at lunch.

    "I think we have just witnessed something we have never seen before on a cricket field, Stuart Broad saying that wasn't out."

  14. WI 14-2 (Bravo 4, Samuels 4)published at 16:28 British Summer Time 2 May 2015

    This is a nervy start for the West Indies, and they could be three down. First Darren Bravo flashes one just wide of Chris Jordan at third slip, then he nearly chops one on to his stumps, then he's struck on the pad. The hosts are living dangerously, but they do pick up a couple of boundaries.

    David Long: 5-2, Anderson and Broad all over West Indies like a cheap suit!

    "Very good from Jimmy Anderson, with a fuller length. The seam, when we saw the slow motion replay, was absolutely glorious. It's been very straight recently but here it was angled to third man, causing that away swing."

  17. WICKETpublished at 16:20 British Summer Time 2 May 2015

    We go through the usual rigmarole with umpteen different camera angles, before the third umpire eventually decides that Hope is out. It was a tentative poke at a full delivery from the debutant, who has to go.

    Instant redemption? Well, it's not going to be instant redemption. Alastair Cook thinks he's caught Shai Hope down low, but the umpires want to have another look...

    "Very promising start from the England bowlers, Jimmy Anderson has got his length spot on with a bit of swing, Stuart Broad steaming in and should have had a wicket too."

  20. Dropped catchpublished at 16:16 British Summer Time 2 May 2015

    Dolly! An absolute howler from the England skipper. Stuart Broad sends down a sharp lifter outside off stump that gets Darren Bravo wafting, and the edge loops gently to Alastair Cook at first slip. It's a nice height, but it goes straight into the fingers and out again. Cook looks mortified, like a man who's forgotten to water his neighbour's house-plants while they're on holiday. Let-off for the West Indies, frustration for Stuart Broad.
