England on top after Broad blast

Stuart Broad
Stuart Broad completed his 10-wicket match haul as England at last shifted Shivnarine Chanderpaul and put themselves back on course for victory in the first Investec Test at Lord's.
They had Graeme Swann to thank for the end of Chanderpaul (91), just before tea on day four, after the previously immovable left-hander's crease occupation here had extended to 425 balls in all following his 87 not out first time round.
But Broad, adding four for 93 to his first-innings career-best seven for 72, was again the principal driving force as England bowled the West Indies out for 345.
He became only the fourth cricketer to put his name on all three honours boards - for a century, five-wicket innings haul and 10 in a Test - helping to leave England with a perfectly feasible target of 191 on a benign and still relatively unworn surface.
