Day 3 Session 1
Spinner Jack Leach then anchored down one end, bowling 47 successive dot balls at one stage, but Holder opened his broad shoulders occasionally, notably hitting part-time spinner Joe Root over long-on for a towering six. A frustrated England could not break through again before the close on a day when intermittent showers briefly interrupted play several times. The second new ball, 13.1 overs away, cannot come quickly enough for England.
Ben Stokes gave England a much-deserved breakthrough at the start of Day 3 of the first Test against West Indies as he dismissed Jason Holder. Jason Holder and Nkrumah Bonner shared an unbeaten 75-run partnership as West Indies recovered from a mini collapse and advanced to 202 for four at the end of second day at Viv Richards Stadium in North Sound. The pair could however add 4 more runs as Ben Stokes bowled an outswinger that took the edge off his bat and flew straight to keeper Ben Foakes who collected a simple catch. Holder departed scoring 45 runs. With the new ball due in few overs, England will look to take quick wickets new ball can change their fortunes.
