West Indies skipper Jason Holder and wicket-keeper batsman Shane Dowrich batted positively on Day 3 of the third and final Test match against England at Old Trafford. The pair helped Caribbeans to avoid the follow-on successfully. They added 76-run for the seventh wicket.
The visitors began the day needing 33 runs to make England bat again, and Holder and Dowrich did everything to make it possible.
Things were beginning to look comfortable for the tourists, but England speedster Stuart Broad had some other plans. He started the morning session on Day 3 by dismissing Windies skipper for 46.
First wicket of the day!

Broad was not in any mood to stop as he continued his aggressive spell. During the 63rd over of West Indies first innings, the Nottingham-born bowler bagged two more scalps in the form of Rahkeem Cornwall and Kemar Roach to register his Test career’s 18th five-wicket haul.
Dowrich (37) was the last man to be dismissed, and West Indies were bundled out for 197. Broad took the final scalp and completed his 6-wicket haul as well.
