London - Tom Westley kept his place in an unchanged 13-man England squad announced on Wednesday for next week's decisive third Test against West Indies at Lord's.
The Essex batsman has come under scrutiny after three single-figure scores at number three.
But he has been given another chance to nail down a place in
the team in what will be England's last Test before the year-ending Ashes
series in Australia.
Mark Stoneman and Dawid Malan have also held onto their places after both chipped in with second-innings half-centuries in the five-wicket loss to West Indies at Headingley.
Left out of the starting team in Leeds, Middlesex seamer Toby Roland-Jones and Hampshire leg-spinner Mason Crane will both hope to force their way into the XI for the series decider.
England will be aiming to return to the form that brought them a crushing innings and 209-run win in the first Test at Edgbaston.
