Broad dominates Windies after collapse: 3rd Test, Day 2 (Manchester)

Veteran Stuart Broad shone with both bat and ball as England took a huge step towards winning the series against West Indies.

No 10 Broad’s swashbuckling 62 took them to a first-innings total of 369. Broad came in with England tottering at 280-8. He struck a blistering 33 ball fifty to rescue England.

Broad then combined with James Anderson using the new ball to leave the Windies in disarray at 137-6 when bad light forced an early close. The West Indies need 33 more to avoid the follow-on with the series on the line. 

West Indies 137 for 6 (Holder 24*, Dowrich 10*) trail England 369 (Pope 91, Buttler 67, Broad 62, Burns 57, Roach 4-72) by 232 runs.
