Georgetown, Mar. 10.
A brave innings of 55 by 24-year-old__off-spinner Dave Allen led a magnificent recovery by England's tailenders, who put on 120 for the last four wickets against West Indies, on the second day of the fourth Test here today. England's earlier batamen failed dismally but Allen, batting at No. 9, helped the side to total 296, and by the close the West Indies had made 32 without loss.
