Holder to Markram, out Bowled!! Holder strikes first ball! Markram is cleaned up and left looking clueless. That was a lovely delivery, on a length and just outside off, nipped back in sharply off the deck. Markram was rooted to his crease, neither forward nor back and he left a big gap between bat-pad, the ball rushed through to hit the top of off-stump and uprooted it. The West Indies have managed to get a wicket in the first hour. Makram will be bitterly disappointed with that. Markram b Holder 9(34) [4s-1]
