(Reuters) - Jason Holder struck his maiden first-class century to lead West Indies to a draw in the first test in Antigua on Friday after James Anderson had become England's leading test wicket-taker.

Denesh Ramdin and Holder shared a resolute seventh-wicket stand of 105 and although the former became Anderson's 384th test victim in the final session, the hosts did enough to ruin England's hopes of going 1-0 up in the three-match series.
