2nd Test, England tour of West Indies 2019, Watch WI v Eng Cricket highlights today – Second test day two from Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua (West Indies) Friday 1st February 2019.
England lost the toss and batted first. The visitor team England scored 187 runs in their first innings in 61 overs. England was six down at 93 which was not a good start but after that, MM Ali and BT Foakes † took charge and scored good runs. The home team West Indies faced 21 overs in yesterday’s play and scored 30 runs.
BT Foakes † scored 35 runs and out, MM Ali scored 60 runs by facing 104 deliveries. When his wicket dismissed then it was (55.3 Moeen is gone! It looks a horribly tame dismissal, but that surely kicked from a good length. Moeen was looking to drive, and yes, there was some awkward bounce that just lifted the ball into the splice rather than the middle. Up it pops, a simple chance to midwicket, and another enterprising knock is done 178/7). KAJ Roach took four wickets, ST Gabriel took three, AS Joseph dismissed two English batsmen and JO Holder took one wicket.
West Indies win the toss and will bowl.
