The Latest Breaking News from Grenada

Upbeat tourists’ batters are in good nick, but their bowlers will need something better to work on if the series is to be won

England expect to have Ollie Robinson and Craig Overton available for Thursday’s Third Test against West Indies in Grenada.

England and West Indies head to Grenada with the series in the balance after the Second Test followed a similar pattern to the opener in Antigua and finished in a draw.

Just as they had in Antigua last week, England spent the final day pushing for victory on a benign surface. They got one wicket closer this time, with West Indies five down, but were thwarted once more. The series heads to Grenada for a decider, starting Thursday.

On day four in Barbados, the second draw of the series seems a safe bet, which would set up a decider in Grenada. Perhaps there will be a tumble of wickets, but few are holding their breath.

England are resigned to losing Mark Wood for the Third Test against West Indies in Grenada. The quick bowler injured his elbow in the First Test in Antigua, and England are awaiting the results of his second scan since arriving in Barbados. The first clearly did not tell them enough.
