Windies top order falls to England pacemen
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 26 - 05 - 2012

England's bowlers tore through the West Indies' top order on day one of the second Test at Trent Bridge, reducing the tourists to 84-4 at lunch.
James Anderson took 2-22 and Stuart Broad 2-34, leaving West Indies to rue its decision to bat after winning the toss Friday morning.
Shivnarine Chanderpaul, unbeaten on 19, was once again left trying to hold a West Indies innings together alongside Marlon Samuels, who was 14 not out.
Kieran Powell was West Indies' top scorer with 33.
West Indies has never lost a Test at Trent Bridge, but that record already looks in danger after a calamitous morning session.
The tourists made two changes to the side that lost the first Test at Lord's, bringing in Shane Shillingford and Ravi Rampaul for Fidel Edwards and Shannon Gabriel. England named an unchanged side.
In the fourth over Broad produced a delivery that bounced up sharply and Adrian Barath sent it straight to second slip, where Anderson took an excellent one-handed catch to dismiss the opener for a duck. Kirk Edwards was lucky to survive in the next over when he edged an Anderson delivery and was put down by the third slip Tim Bresnan, who dived in front of Graeme Swann when the latter was arguably better placed.
Edwards scored just 7 before he was clean bowled in the ninth over by Anderson, who produced an inswinger that found a gap between bat and pad and smashed the middle and off stumps.
Darren Bravo fell in the 15th over, caught by Swann at second slip off Anderson for just three and Chanderpaul made a nervous start, sending the first ball he faced off his arm guard to the boundary before bisecting the slip cordon with an edge in Anderson's next over.
Powell had looked well set, but on 33 he wafted at a Broad delivery and was caught in the slips by Anderson.
Samuels was on one when he was adjudged lbw to Bresnan, but he successfully referred the decision and looked increasingly confident in surviving to the end of the session.
