West Indies struck two early blows, including the run out of England captain Joe Root, in the opening session of the third and final test at Old Trafford to leave the hosts on 66 for two wickets at lunch on Friday.
Root was caught short as England attempted a quick single and dismissed for 17 runs as some smart fielding reaped a major scalp for the tourists.Opener Rory Burns and Ben Stokes will resume after lunch after England were put into bat under cloudy conditions in Manchester, where the sun was threatening to come out for the afternoon session but the weather forecast over the five days of the test remained gloomy.
Yet Root and Burns put on 46 runs for the second wicket before Burns set off for a quick run after steering spinner Rahkeem Cornwall towards third man. Gabriel then went off with a suspected hamstring injury halfway through his fourth over, but returned to the attack after an hour, which included time off the pitch for treatment and strapping.
