England defeats the West Indies in 3rd cricket Test

I noted the West Indies side surprisingly upset England in the second test of their three-Test series.  Of course, they had to play the third Test, and they did it at the venerable Lord's cricket ground.

It was a surprising Test, because the bowlers had a decided advantage over the batsmen - meaning that the score was very low as cricket scores go.

It was also notable because Jimmy Anderson, a true cricket superstar bowler, took his 500th Test wicket, first time that's ever been achieved by an Englishman -- and then kept on going.  Anderson was one of the main reasons England won.

The Windies had 123 runs in their first innings and 177 in their second, for a round total of 300.  England had 194 in their first innings, and hit the number of 107, totaling 301, to win the Test.

Stokes was the top England batsman in the first innings, with 60 runs, and didn't even have to bat in the second innings.

The five-Test series Ashes match against Australia (in Australia) is next.
