ENG v WI, 3rd Test, Day1: England recover with defiant 10th-wicket stand against West Indies

The Hindu  

England recovered from the brink of disaster thanks to a 10th-wicket stand of 90 between Jack Leach and Saqib Mahmood against West Indies on the first day of the deciding Test of the series in Grenada on Thursday. 10 and 11, who helped themselves to runs almost at will, a far cry from earlier in the day when the five-pronged West Indies pace attack made the lively pitch look like a minefield. Bowling all-rounder Mayers picked up two vital early wickets without conceding a run as West Indies eyed winning the Caribbean series following draws in the first two Tests. Watched by Keith Mitchell, the prime minister of the tiny island nation of barely 100,000, Mayers took the first two wickets, getting opener Zak Crawley caught at short cover for seven.
