West Indies v England: second Test
Lunch (day three) England 187 & 9-0, West Indies 306 all out

Best prices 4-9 West Indies, 13-5 England, 20-1 draw

England have been trimmed to 13-5 from 5-1 at the start of the day to win the second Test against the West Indies after bowling out the hosts for 306.

The Windies opened on 272-6 with Jason Holder and Darren Bravo at the crease and while Holder only added three runs to his total on the third day before being dislodged by James Anderson, Bravo was patient with the bat.

The 29-year-old was the final wicket to fall for the Windies after scoring the third-slowest Test 50 of all time, taking 342 minutes and 216 balls to reach the half-century mark.

Having posted a poor 187 runs in their first innings, England pulled themselves back into contention with Anderson taking two wickets and Ben Stokes and Moeen Ali claiming the scalps of Alzarri Joseph and Bravo respectively.

Rory Burns (4), a 5-1 shot to finish as England's top runscorer in the second innings, and Joe Denly (0) are at the crease heading into lunch.

England are 9-4 to reach 325 runs with Sky Bet and 3-1 to make 350 runs with the same firm.

Kemar Roach finished with figures of 4-30 in England's first innings and is quoted at 5-2 to be the Windies top wicket-taker in the second.
