West Indies 272 - 6 (111.0 overs - KC Braithwaite 49, JD Campbell 47, SD Hope 44, SCJ Broad 3-42, lead England 187 all out (61.0 overs - (M M Ali 60, J M Bairstow 52, K A J Roach 4-30) by 85 runs. Stuart Broad led a spirited fightback from England’s bowlers in Antigua but missed chances and belligerent batting from the West Indies left the tourists battling to save both the second Test and the series. Frustration turned to despair when a booming edge from Campbell, on 27, sailed to third slip and Buttler spilled. Stokes denied Campbell a devil-may-care half-century, Buttler making partial amends by gathering safely at second, ending an English wicket drought lasting 101 overs. Buttler caused Broad further anguish when Bravo, on 20, squeezed a full ball into the cordon and the vice-captain juggled it to the floor.
