Bowled alright in that session without reward. Looks like Chanderpaul is in full on limpet mode

Doesn't it just. Get a wicket, that brings that strokemaker Brendan Nash to the crease.

Turgid stuff.

Now, I don't know for sure, but with the technology available, why didn't England know that rain was forecast for today and if they did, they should have made the West Indies follow on.

196 - 3 at lunch. Sarwan and Chanderpaul looked well set. Let's hope lunch spoils their momentum.

If Chanderpaul is still in by tea and the Windies have only lost 1 or 2 wickets, England won't win.

The bowling wonder that is Owais Shah is on to demolish the windies batting line up

I'm surprised the Windies aren't going for it, a target of 503 is easily achievable against England.

Bowled him! Absolute pearler from Broad, uproots Sarwan's off peg. Kept a bit low.
