Jonny Bairstow joins list of England centurions in West Indies

Jonny Bairstow joined the list of England batters to score a Test century in the Caribbean.

His unbeaten 109 helped rescue England from 48 for four to end day one 268 for six.

Here, the PA news agency takes a look at some memorable Test tons scored by England on tour in the West Indies.

England won the toss and elected to bat first and Sandham scored an incredible 325 runs across 10 hours at the crease before being bowled by Herman Griffith to help build a first-innings total of 849, Les Ames adding 149.

The hosts were bowled out for 286 and England declared on 272 for nine – Sandham scoring 50 – before the match was drawn as the West Indies finished 408 for five in their second innings.

Sandham, who turned 40 three months later, never played another Test.

With the West Indies already 1-0 up in the 1974 series, England scored 353 in the first innings in the second Test at Kingston before efforts from Lawrence Rowe (120), Roy Fredericks (94) and Alvin Kallicharran (93) saw the hosts declare on 583 for nine.

Amiss’s knock of 262 not out in the second innings helped England secure a draw as the rest of his team-mates fell around him, with the next best score coming from John Jameson (38).

The 1974 series finished 1-1 when England won the final Test following three straight draws.

England endured a difficult tour of the Caribbean in 1981 and were thrashed in the first and third Tests – first by an innings and then 298 runs, respectively, but had drawn the fourth Test.

The visitors were up against one of the best bowling attacks in the world in the form of Michael Holding and Colin Croft, who would go on to take 41 wickets between them in the series.

In the fifth and final Test, England made 285 before Clive Lloyd’s side
