Left-handers Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Brendan Nash completed defiant centuries on Monday to lead the West Indies to within two runs of England's first innings total, with the visitors aggressively pressing for a series-levelling win in the fifth and final Test. The West Indies were bowled out for 544 in reply to England's first innings of 546-6 declared. The visitors closed on 80-3 off 15 overs in the final 75 minutes, an overall lead of 82 runs with one day remaining. Kevin Pietersen led the intent with a swift, unbeaten 34 off 27 balls on a day that the TV review system again caused controversy. England trail 0-1 in the five-match series and must win to retain the Wisden Trophy.
