England holds a slender 16-run first innings lead at stumps on day two of the first cricket test against the West Indies at Lord's.

The hosts are 259 for three in their first turn at bat courtesy of an unbeaten 121 from captain Andrew Strauss.

It's his first hundred since the Ashes series in late 2010.
