England made two changes to the side selected for the abandoned second test on Friday.

West Indies captain Chris Gayle won the toss and chose to bowl in the third test against England at the Antigua Recreation Ground on Sunday.

England made two changes to the side selected for the abandoned second test on Friday.

Spinner Graeme Swann came in for Monty Panesar and seamer Steve Harmison replaced Ryan Sidebottom.

West Indies made no changes from the side that took the field for just 10 balls on Friday at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.

That game was abandoned due to an unfit outfield and a hastily arranged third test was set up at the Recreation Ground, the traditional home of cricket in Antigua.

Play was due to start at 1045 local time (1445 GMT) after a rain delay.

Teams: West Indies: Chris Gayle (captain), Devon Smith, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Ryan Hinds, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Brendan Nash, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Jerome Taylor, Sulieman Benn, Daren Powell, Fidel Edwards.

England: Andrew Strauss (captain), Alastair Cook, Owais Shah, Kevin Pietersen, Paul Collingwood, Andrew Flintoff, Matt Prior (wk), Stuart Broad, Graeme Swann, Steve Harmison, James Anderson.
