Summary

Jonathan Agnew is alongside Alastair Cook, Michael Vaughan & Fazeer Mohammed for reaction to the first day’s play between England and the West Indies at Trent Bridge.

Century-hitter Ollie Pope reflects on a "strong" day for England and West Indies spinner Kevin Sinclair says they let England get too many runs as poor fielding and dropped catches hurt his side's determination to limit the home team.

Plus, author Simon Lister joins Aggers to talk about the first permanent black captain of the West Indies, Sir Frank Worrell. Ebony Rainford-Brent joins the chat to discuss her unique link to the West Indian great.
