An unbeaten 75-run stand by Jason Holder and Nkrumah Bonner has left the West Indies 109 runs behind England after day two of the first Test in Antigua.
West Indies are 4-204 at stumps on day two of the first Test against England in Antigua, trailing the tourists' first innings by 109 runs.
Jason Holder and Nkrumah Bonner combined for unbeaten stand of 75 runs with the day's play coming to an early end at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground due to rain.
The pair took no risks and offered no chances, and safely managed a largely toothless England attack.
Holder, 43 not out, and Bonner, 34no, were in no rush as they complied runs at just two per over until they were interrupted by a fourth shower of the day and stumps were pulled.
Their stand was in contrast to the innings' breezy start.
The openers, captain Kraigg Brathwaite and the recalled John Campbell, coasted after England were bowled out for 311 from 6-268.
Brathwaite and Campbell cruised past lunch and hit 13 boundaries and a six until Campbell's demise ended their stand on 83.
Campbell was out down the leg side for 35.
Brathwaite reached his half-century in only 62 balls but was prised out for 55 by fast bowler Mark Wood.
Shamarh Brooks edged Ben Stokes to the slips on 18 and Jermaine Blackwood made 11 before he fell to Chris Woakes.
From 83 without loss, West Indies lost 44-4 in 16 overs and a great start was at risk of being wasted until Holder and Bonner got together.
They survived a period of reverse swing, and nine consecutive maidens by spinner Jack Leach, but the pressure wasn't applied from both ends.
Woakes and Craig Overton led the England attack for the first time in the absence of the dropped James Anderson and Stuart Board and the injured Ollie Robinson, and failed to impress with the new ball and the old ball despite taking a wicket each.
They were the most expensive, apart from a couple of overs of spin from captain Joe Root.
England added 43 runs to their overnight total.
Jonny Bairstow moved from 109 to 140 off 259 balls before he was last man out, slicing high to backward point.
Fast bowlers Jayden Seales (4-79) and Alzarri Joseph shared the last four wickets.
