2nd Test Preview: Root returns, Denly dropped (Manchester)

Skipper Joe Root, the best English batsman in the team returns, so there is every chance of reviving a home side that is in the uncomfortable position of being 1-0 down in a three-match series.

Root discussed his return as Joe Denly is dropped to make way.

With a forecast for dry conditions, Windies skipper Jason Holder says they may keep the same side, unless the pitch looks so brown and inviting for spin bowlers that he brings in Rahkeem Cornwall for Joseph.
