England 's interim managing director Sir Andrew Strauss has defended the controversial decision to drop both James Anderson and Stuart Broad for their tour of the West Indies, despite the injury problems which have blighted the series so far.
Ollie Robinson missed the first Test after suffering back spasms and failed to recover in time for the second. Mark Wood also picked up an elbow problem in the first Test which could sideline him for the remainder of the tour.
Craig Overton, who opened the bowling alongside Chris Woakes in Antigua, has also missed the second Test after falling ill, with England handing Test debuts to Saqib Mahmood and Matthew Fisher. Despite the raft of problems which has already affected England's seam attack, Strauss insisted he has no regrets over dropping Anderson and Broad.
