2nd Test: Windies elect to bowl, Stuart Broad returns

England have never won a Test match in Antigua.

West Indies captain Jason Holder won the toss and put England in to bat at the start of the second Test of the three-match series at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua on Thursday.

Following their comprehensive 381-run victory inside four days in the first Test in Barbados a week earlier, the home side have predictably named an unchanged XI. (LIVE, West Indies vs England, 2nd Test: FULL SCORECARD)
