Port of Spain: The fifth and final Test match between the West Indies and England looked set a for a draw as the Windies reached 519-7 at tea on the fourth day here on Monday.
The hosts, in reply to England's 546-6 declared in the first innings, were trailing by 27 runs at tea break with Shivnarain Chanderpaul unbeaten on 133.
West Indies, resuming from overnight score of 349-4 reached 433 without losing any more wicket at lunch. As English bowlers were toiling to get any breakthrough, BP Nash fell in the middle session after a hundred. He was caught by Collingwood off Broad for 109 that included 17 fours in the 257-ball knock.
The Windies lost two more wickets in the session in Hinds and Ramdin. Hinds was stumped for 23 off Swann while Andersen trapped Ramdin leg before for 15.
However, England's bid for a series-levelling win now look difficult with only four sessions of game left.
