England vs West Indies 2nd Test Day 1 Highlights: Ollie Pope rode his luck to a hundred as England ended the first day of the second Test against the West Indies at Trent Bridge on Thursday in a commanding position at 416 all out. Both sides had reason to feel frustrated, with the West Indies dropping four catches — Pope was reprieved twice — and wicketkeeper Joshua Da Silva missing a stumping, while several England batsmen gave their wickets away. Ben Duckett launched the innings with a rapid 71, after fellow opener Zak Crawley fell for a duck, with England racing to 50 in a mere 4.2 overs — the quickest a side have reached that total in a Test match.

It was all very much in the spirit of ‘Bazball’, the nickname for England’s aggressive style of Test cricket under captain Ben Stokes and coach Brendon McCullum. (Scorecard)
