  • Mark Wood has given England an excellent start with the ball.

    Jos Buttler was dismissed early by Shannon Gabriel on day two of the third and final Test between West Indies and England at St. Lucia.

    It kept getting worse for the visitors following his dismissal with England ultimately folding for just 277 runs in their first innings.

    The Windies fared no better with the bat in their response with a four-wicket burst from Mark Wood reducing them to 79-6.

    Buttler and Ben Stokes had put on a unbeaten stand of 124 runs for the fourth wicket on day one to help England overcome a dismal start with the bat in the first innings.

    Stokes was given a lucky reprieve when he was dismissed by Alzarri Joseph but was belatedly called back to the crease by the umpire after replays showed a front-foot no-ball by the Windies pacer.

    The all-rounder was unbeaten on 62 while Buttler was batting on 67 as the tourists posted 231-4 before stumps were drawn on day one.

    The Windies are chasing a 3-0 whitewash of the tourists after two emphatic victories at Barbados and Antigua. Will the hosts succeed in their endeavours? Follow the ball-by-ball action from day two at St. Lucia below to keep track.
