Presentations coming up...
Earlier in the game, England chose to bowl first and initially struggled, but Mayers and King recovered to form a 43-run opening partnership. They then lost some quick wickets. Despite this setback, Brandon King and skipper Rovman Powell put up a strong fight, scoring 80 runs together. Their partnership also resulted in Sam Curran's most expensive over, conceding 30 runs. Brandon King's unbeaten 82 off 52 balls, along with Russell's quick 14, helped West Indies reach a total of 176. Adil Rashid was the standout bowler with 2/11 from 4 overs, while Mills also contributed with a couple of wickets.
For England, Sam Curran was excellent as he scored his half-century off just 32 balls. The rest of the team played small cameos but it wasn't enough as they fell short of just 10 runs. Moeen Ali at the end gathered some hope but the penultimate over from Jason Holder stole the game from England. They will look to bounce back from this and win their next game.
The Windies have a 2-0 lead in this 5-match T20I series now! They will be happy with their performance and will be looking to carry on with the momentum and win this series. They bowled well from the start but Andre Russell conceded 66 runs in his 4 overs, marking his most expensive spell in T20I. Alzarri Joseph chipped in with three wickets and Akeal Hosein picked up two. Gudakesh Motie though was excellent as he ended with with (4-0-9-1) figures and was the most economical.
