The three-Test series is level after West Indies held on Saturday to draw the opener. England made a bold declaration on the last day at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium and got within six wickets of winning on a sluggish pitch with an undermanned bowling attack. 

"It was a hard-fought first match in Antigua and we decided to stick with the same 13 players for the second match in Barbados," West Indies lead selector Desmond Haynes said on Sunday.
