Day 3
How did Day 3 pan out?
WI continued with their overnight score of 124/8 before they were bowled out for 131.
Following-on, WI had an ideal start, however, Trent Boult got rid of Kraigg Brathwaite soon.
Brathwaite's opening partner John Campbell showed some intent, but departed on 68.
Notably, Holder and Joshua Da Silva propelled WI to 244/6 (trail by 85 runs) before bad light stopped play.
