The Wisden Trophy - 2nd Test

England v West Indies

England won by an innings and 83 runs

Overs 1-50  | Overs 51-100

4.1

Anderson to Smith, OUT, bang! Got him! Anderson finds his length and, with it, some inswing - both of which are too good for Smith and his concreted feet, the ball bending back to bowl him through the gate

DS Smith b Anderson 7 (19m 14b 1x4 0x6) SR: 50.00

West Indies 18/1   CH Gayle 11* (11b 2x4)   JM Anderson 2.1-0-7-1

8.2

Anderson to Gayle, OUT, that's the one! Almost a carbon-copy delivery, but six inches straighter. That raps the pads, but is surely going over the top. Asoka de Silva doesn't think so, and that is a massive, if fortuitous, breakthrough

CH Gayle lbw b Anderson 19 (42m 24b 4x4 0x6) SR: 79.16

West Indies 38/2   RR Sarwan 10* (13b 2x4)   JM Anderson 4.2-1-13-2

14.6

Anderson to Simmons, OUT, Anderson has three! Superb bowling from Jimmy, angled in on off stump, straightening, taking the edge, and Strauss at first slip completes a dramatic-looking catch diving away to his right and losing his glasses in the process

LMP Simmons c Strauss b Anderson 8 (31m 18b 2x4 0x6) SR: 44.44

West Indies 68/3   RR Sarwan 28* (35b 4x4)   JM Anderson 8-2-28-3

44.6

Broad to Chanderpaul, OUT, that extra delivery has turned out to be a blessing in disguise for England! Broad bowls the offcutter outside the off stump and has Chanderpaul fishing for it, there's a very thin edge to the keeper and de Silva agrees with the rest

S Chanderpaul c †Prior b Broad 23 (138m 103b 2x4 0x6) SR: 22.33

West Indies 167/4   RR Sarwan 80* (113b 12x4)   SCJ Broad 10-1-46-1

52.3

Broad to Sarwan, OUT, well Broad's clearly been working to a plan here! He bangs in a superb bouncer angling on the body and Sarwan hangs his bat high to fend it off but the ball clips his glove and balloons to Bresnan at the slips

RR Sarwan c Bresnan b Broad 100 (222m 138b 14x4 0x6) SR: 72.46

West Indies 188/5   BP Nash 1* (20b)   SCJ Broad 13.3-1-59-2

62.3

Anderson to Nash, OUT, the full length ball does the trick, and in such unlucky circumstances! Nash gets the toe-end of the bat on an attempted drive, the ball loops agonisingly backwards into the crease, and flicks into the leg stump as Nash belatedly realises what is happening and attempts to deflect it

BP Nash b Anderson 10 (66m 52b 1x4 0x6) SR: 19.23

West Indies 205/6   D Ramdin 7* (28b 1x4)   JM Anderson 21.3-5-59-4

65.4

Onions to Taylor, OUT, absolutely arrow-straight, Taylor plays all around it, and that is utterly plumb! Well bowled Onions, that's his first of the match, and England are right into the tail now

JE Taylor lbw b Onions 10 (14m 11b 2x4 0x6) SR: 90.90

West Indies 216/7   D Ramdin 8* (36b 1x4)   G Onions 15.4-6-43-1

79.3

Swann to Benn, OUT, a wicket against the run of play here, Benn shovels a full delivery towards long-on and the ball drops in front of Pietersen, Benn's ball watching and fails to make his ground before the direct hit from KP

SJ Benn run out 35 (60m 48b 6x4 1x6) SR: 72.91

West Indies 286/8   D Ramdin 43* (71b 5x4 1x6)   GP Swann 13.3-4-43-0

83.2

Broad to Edwards, OUT, one of the more comical dismissals in this match for sure! Edwards shapes to biff a short delivery over deep square-leg but he flays too early and the ball clips the toe of the bat and falls safely in Strauss's hands at first slip

FH Edwards c Strauss b Broad 11 (21m 16b 2x4 0x6) SR: 68.75

West Indies 310/9   D Ramdin 55* (79b 7x4 1x6)   SCJ Broad 15.2-2-62-3

84.3

Anderson to Ramdin, OUT, that's a five-for for Anderson, bowls a good length delivery outside off and gets it to come back in slightly, Ramdin pushes forward and gets a thick outside edge to Swann at second slip

D Ramdin c Swann b Anderson 55 (140m 82b 7x4 1x6) SR: 67.07

West Indies 310/10   LS Baker 0* (4b)   JM Anderson 26.3-5-87-5
