ST JOHN’S, Antigua — West Indies captain Jason Holder Holder was again a key performer with 4-43 as his team beat England by ten wickets in the second Test to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match Wisden Trophy Series.

Kemar Roach ended with 4-52 – to record match figures of 8-82 and capture the Player-of-the-Match award. Roach is now the leading wicket-taker in the series with 13 wickets (average 12.07). This continued his good returns at the venue – 25 wickets in just four matches here. Overall in his career, the 30-year-old is the tenth highest wicket-taker in Windies Test history with 179 wickets in 52 matches.

Holder and Roach were well supported by fellow fast bowler Alzarri Joseph, who bravely decided to play on in the match after learning of his mother’s death before play started at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground on Saturday. The 22-year-old was a game-changer as he bowled with raw pace and got the ball to move both ways from the Sir Curtly Ambrose End. He ended with 2-12 – match figures of 4-50 – in his first Test on home soil. England were bowled out for 132 in the second innings – as West Indies captured all 40 wickets in two Tests wins so far.
