West Indies vs England LIVE SCORECARD: Follow the latest from day one of the third Test in St Lucia
- England play West Indies in the final Test of the three-match series on Saturday
- Tourists are playing for little more than pride after going 2-0 down in Antigua
- Ben Stokes passes late fitness test with Keaton Jennings and Mark Wood recalled
- Joe Root lost the toss and invited to bat first for second match in a row
England will be playing for little more than pride in the third and final Test against West Indies in St Lucia, beginning on Saturday.
A 10-wicket thrashing in Antigua last week confirmed a series victory for the hosts, after a one-sided affair in the first Test in Barbados.
The tourists have rung the changes once again as they look to end the long-form segment of their tour on a high.
Ben Stokes was named in England’s side despite struggling with a bruised right heel as England lost the toss and were put in to bat for the second match in succession.
He returned to training on the eve of the match and came through his session unscathed.
That meant no place for fellow all-rounder Sam Curran, with Mark Wood recalled to add pace to the bowling attack and Keaton Jennings back to open the innings just one match after being dropped.
Play gets underway at 14.00 GMT.
