Archer is struck on the pads. Given not out. West Indies don't look overly convinced but have decided to review. I think it could be close.

It just nips back. It is whether it is going down leg or over the top.

Archer has gone for a duck. Five wickets for Jason Holder as yet another umpire decision is reversed, replays showing the ball would have gone on to cleanly hit leg stump.
The ICC number one ranked all-rounder is leading from the front for the tourists.

Holder has five. There are whoops of delight. What a moment for Holder.

What a review. Holder thought about it, stopped himself, then made the sign and shrugged his shoulders. The Windies could barely believe it when they got three reds.

The first two referrals I think West Indies were confident. This one looked like it might have been going down the leg side but it hit flush on the leg stump.
This game has been turned in the last 20 minutes by the West Indies captain.

An hour to go until tea as Alrazzi Joseph continues to trouble Dom Bess. The England number eight flirts with one outside the off stump and is lucky not to have nicked it.
He does eventually connect with a back-foot punch through cover for three runs. And Mark Wood is off the mark with a clip into the leg side.

Holder averages 11.80 in his last 10 Tests. No bowler has averaged less than 13 over a 10-Test period since Tony Lock in the 1950s. Other than him the only other bowler since the First World War to have done it is Jim Laker.
