Jack Leach and Saqib Mahmood were the unlikely heroes for England on Day 1 of the third and final Test against the West Indies being played at the National Cricket Stadium, St George's in Grenada. The visitors were staring down the barrel after being reduced to 114 for nine by the hosts. But Leach and Mahmood combined brilliantly to rescue the visitors from their dire situation to give some respectability to England's fist innings total. The duo put on 90-run partnership for the final wicket to take England to 204 all out at stumps on Day 1.
England suffered a shocking batting collapse on Day 1 of the third and final Test against the West Indies at the National Cricket Stadium, St George's in Grenada. Having been put into bat by the West Indies, England found themselves tottering at 114 for nine in the first innings. However, a 90-run last wicket partnership between Jack Leach and Saqib Mahmood saved England blushes and brought about some respectability to their total. Mahmood fell for a valiant 49 in the last over of the day as England were bowled out for 204 with Leach unbeaten on 41.
Saqib Mahmood proved his team-mates wrong for a lack of faith as his last-wicket stand with Jack Leach helped rescue England on the opening day of the third Test against the West Indies.
Saqib Mahmood was pleased to get his highest first-class score but even more delighted to wear West Indies "into the ground" on day one of the deciding Test in the series in Grenada on Thursday. If England go on to win the Test at the National Cricket Stadium it might well be No. 11 Mahmood's batting rather than his bowling that turns out to be a match-winning performance. In scoring 49 he and Jack Leach (41 not out) not only lifted England to a respectable 204 all out total by the close with their 90-run partnership, but also significantly shifted the mood in the two camps.
