WATCH: Chief correspondent GEORGE DOBELL answers readers' questions after day one of the second Test between West Indies and England

The tourists closed on 244 for 3, with Dan Lawrence making a career-best 91.

The Cricketer’s chief correspondent takes questions from readers about events in Barbados, from Matt Parkinson's continued omission, the state of the pitch and what awaits Lawrence after his fine knock.
