West Indies fight back against England to put a whitewash on hold - as Gus Atkinson dazzles with the ball but England look ropey with the bat on the opening day of the Third Test
Daily MailThe hosts close an enthralling first day of cricket at 38-3 – 244 runs behind England's hopes of the whitewash that many had regarded as a formality were dealt a blow by three late wickets as West Indies fought back on a topsy-turvy day at Edgbaston. Four wickets for Gus Atkinson and three on his home ground for Chris Woakes had limited the tourists to 282 – only for Jayden Seales and Alzarri Joseph to reduce England to 38 for three as the shadows lengthened. Gus Atkinson took four wickets in a stand-out performance, limiting the tourists to 282 all-out Chris Woakes, also hit three wickets on his home ground, in a solid opening session for England's bowlers But the final delivery of the over was wider, luring Crawley into a drive that flew to Jason Holder at second slip. Chris Woods made a mess of Trinidadian Jayden Seales' stumps, before England took to bat The tourists staged a fightback, knocking out England's opening batters before close of play West Indies' response could prevent an anticipated whitewash in the Third Test at Edgbaston Replays, though, suggested his hand might have been off the bat handle when ball brushed glove, conjuring up one of this ground's most famous moments: back in 2005, Steve Harmison had removed Michael Kasprowicz in similar circumstances to secure a two-run win for England in the second Ashes Test.
