Hello and welcome to Sportstar’s LIVE coverage of day two of the first Test between England and West Indies, being held at Lord’s in London.
ENG vs WI, 1st Test Day 1 Recap
England debutant Gus Atkinson stole the spotlight on the opening day of James Anderson’s farewell Test, claiming seven for 45 at Lord’s as the host took a 68-run lead over West Indies at Stumps with seven wickets remaining.
The home of cricket was primed on Wednesday to pay tribute to Anderson — lining up for his country for the final time after a record-breaking 22-year career — but instead witnessed Surrey pacer Atkinson assume center stage as he helped to topple the tourist for 121 all out in the first Test.
Anderson dismissed No. 11 Jayden Seales to end the innings and give a sellout crowd the moment it came for.
England had assumed complete control by the close at 189 for three in its first innings with half-centuries from Zak Crawley (76) and Ollie Pope (57).
