bowled him! Brilliant slower ball completely foxes Anderson's attempt to smack it over midwicket, and that's game, set and match to West Indies

Full commentary
Excellent comeback by West Indies after the Dyson howler in the first match. Chanderpaul and Sarwan set up their innings with two knocks of predictable class, and England...well, only Strauss got going. The rest floundered. It's 1-1, ladies and gents, with three to play, so join us on Friday for the third match of this series. For now, it's goodnight.

clipped to leg for another neat and pretty single. England need ugly fours and sixes

Pollard to Anderson, 2 runs
good, straight ball but Anderson turns it to leg. Here comes the throw - Harmison is miles short here but there's a misfield at the stumps!
And that should be it for West Indies I think
