West Indies captain Jason Holder challenged his side to "look at themselves in the mirror" after they suffered an innings and 209-run thrashing by England in the first Test at Edgbaston. "It's been a tough few days. We were disappointing in this Test match. We lacked consistency when we bowled and we didn't put up any runs," Holder told reporters. "We got beaten in three days and just weren't up to scratch," he added.

'Series is not lost'
"We have to regroup. It's only one Test, and we can't drop our heads down. The series is not lost. I have to believe because every team is beatable. But each player has to look at themselves in the mirror and see where they can improve," said Holder.
Brathwaite under scanner
Meanwhile, West Indies' Kraigg Brathwaite has been reported for a suspect bowling action. Primarily an opening batsman, occasional off-spinner Brathwaite bowled just six wicketless overs for six runs as England surged to a thumping win inside three days in Birmingham on Saturday. "The match officials' report, which was handed over to the Windies' team management, cited concerns about the legality of Kraigg's bowling action," the ICC said.
