James Anderson did not disappoint on Wednesday when he came back in action for one last time for England. The 41-year-old took the wicket of Jayden Seales, and in the process, he became his 701st victim in Test cricket.

The West Indies fell like a pack of cards, courtesy of a devastating show from Gus Atkinson. Anderson then finished things off, trapping Jayden Seales plumb in front to bundle them out for 121.

Batting on 2* off 8 balls, Seales took the review, only to see on the big screen that the ball would crash the middle and leg stumps.


At the time of writing this, England are 29/1 after West Indies' 121. Zak Crawley and Ollie Pope are in the middle, with the former being the aggressor, batting on 24* off 33 balls.

Earlier, Mikyle Louis top-scored for the West Indies, but the others failed to live up to the lofty standards. All four English bowlers -- Atkinson, Anderson, Chris Woakes and skipper Ben Stokes -- took at least a wicket in an innings thoroughly dominated by the hosts.
