9.2 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Would you believe it? Roston Chase strangles Phil Salt down the leg side and West Indies get a timely wicket. Quicker through the air and on the pads, angling just down leg, Salt gets across to pull it fine but just gets a tickle on the way through. Nicholas Pooran takes a sharp catch just low to his left and the finger goes up. Salt cannot believe it as he walks back for 55 off 35 balls. 102/2

5 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! The hard length ploy finally brings a breakthrough for Alzarri Joseph and the Windies! Alzarri Joseph sticks to bowling on the back of a length, it skids through and comes off the deck very quickly off the deck. He follows the batter as Will Jacks shuffles outside leg to execute the pull shot. Gets cramped up for room but still goes through his shot. Gets no bat on it and the ball lobs high up in the air off his gloves. Nicholas Pooran behind the pegs runs to his left and calls for his catch and does the rest. Phil Salt departs for 25 off 21 and England are 54/1 after 5 overs. 54/1

12.3 OUT! TAKEN! Gudakesh Motie gets his first wicket and removes the English skipper! England three down now. Motie bowls it from around the stumps, on a quicker pace and a flatter trajectory. Pitches it full and just outside off, Jos Buttler premeditates and executes the reverse sweep but gets no real connection on it. The ball goes flat and low towards the short third fielder where Roston Chase takes a good sharp catch. Jos Buttler departs on a quickfire 38. 129/3

15 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! No real celebration from Motie on this one but a wicket whatsoever for West Indies. Motie dishes out a full toss around middle and leg. Livingstone is taken by surprise due to the pace. He does goes through the shot as he sits on his knee and executes a tentative heave across the line. Doesn't get the timing right at all and also loses the grip of his bottom hand. It travels in the air and lands straight into the hands of Shimron Hetmyer at deep mid-wicket. Liam Livingstone departs for 4 off 6 and England are 155/4 now. 155/4

20 OUT! RUN OUT! They had to go for the second but it just wasn't there and it will be a joint-highest T20I total at this ground. Full and straight at the stumps from Obed McCoy, Sam Curran stays back in the crease and flicks it away through mid-wicket for one and they press hard for two. Shimron Hetmyer picks up the ball and fires in a good throw at the keeper's end as Nicholas Pooran takes off the bails in a flash and Curran gets out on the last ball of the innings as England finish with 218/5 on the board. 218/5

9.1 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Finally, a respite for England! Rehan Ahmed strikes and removes the dangerous Evin Lewis! Rehan Ahmed dishes out a wrong'un, full and just outside off. Lewis gets deceived by the flight and the googly. Goes for another big hit down the ground but the bat turns in his hands and it goes high for an eternity towards deep cover. Dan Mousley runs forward from the deep and takes an easy catch while sliding. Evin Lewis departs on a well-made 68 off 31. 136/1

| Shai Hope | 54 | 24 | 7 | 3 | 225 |

9.2 OUT! RUN OUT! Oh, dear! What an unfortunate way to get out! Another googly from Rehan, outside leg. The ball spins sharply away from the left-hander. Pooran flicks it to mid-wicket and looks for a quick single to get off the mark but eventually sends his partner back but Hope is backing too far as he is already more than halfway to complete the single. He does turn around and tries to retreat back to the bowling end. But Liam Livingstone is very quick to pick and the throw comes flat to the bowler where Rehan does the rest. Shai Hope is nowhere in the frame and this is a suicidal run out, to say the least. Both the set batters are into the pavilion now. With this, West Indies has lost both openers in a snap. England making inroads now. 136/2

9.3 OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! What a turnaround this has been! Three wickets in three deliveries and England has well and truly roared back in this contest. Rehan Ahmed dishes out another deceptive googly, lands it on a good length. It lands, grips and turns away from the left-hander. Nicholas Pooran goes deep inside the crease and finds himself a bit cramped up for room to tuck it across. Plays the wrong line and inside edges it into the stumps. Rehan dismisses Pooran on a duck and West Indies in heaps of trouble now. The hosts have now slipped from 136/0 to 136/3 within three deliveries. 136/3

16.3 OUT! LBW! A huge, huge appeal for LBW and up goes the finger this time. Rovman Powell checks his shot and eventually goes for a review to challenge the on-field decision. John Turner steams in from over the wickets and sears it on a length, angling on the middle, Rovman Powell clears his front leg to hoist it across in the air but plays over the line of the ball and gets rapped on the front pad. UltraEdge shows nothing and the Ball Trackig comes up with three reds with he ball hitting the middle and off stumps. Rovman Powell departs after playing a crucial captain's knock. Also, the maiden T20I wicket for John Turner. 196/5

13.2 OUT! TAKEN! That is an unbelievable catch from Liam Livingstone but he seems to have hurt himself in the process as well. Rehan Ahmed comes from around the wicket and tosses the ball up in the slot around middle, tempting the batter to go big. Shimron Hetmyer clears the front leg and looks to go big but miscues it a mile high over mid on. Liam runs back over his head and covers a fair distance as well before leaping back and grabbing it with both hands. His right knee though gets stuck in the turf and that doesn't look good, hopefully he is fine. England get another timely wicket and just keep themselves in the game. 172/4
