England vs West Indies, 2nd Test, Day 1: England will aim to make amends as they take on the West Indies in the second Test of the three-match series from Thursday. The Windies side registered a brilliant four-wicket victory in the first Test in Southampton, riding on Jason Holder, Shannon Gabriel and Jermaine Blackwood's match-winning performances. England are boosted by the arrival of Joe Root, who missed the first Test to attend the birth of his second child.
