WI vs ENG, 2nd T20I, Live Updates
The chase is set to begin. The England players take the field. Followed by Brandon King and Shai Hope who walk out to bat for West Indies. Reece Topley to start with the ball. Here we go...
... The Run Chase ...
Now then, the target is a stiff one. England will back themselves to defend this as they have a decent bowling attack. West Indies on the other hand, do have a strong batting line-up. The wicket is not a very bad one to bat on but the hosts will have to bat well. Stay tuned for the second essay.
The Windies will not be pleased with their effort with the ball and in the field! They were not consistent with their lines and lengths and also did completely opposite to what they did in the first game. The fielding was also not upto the mark, had they held onto all their catches, maybe England would have ended with below 150. All of the bowlers got a wicket at least but Allen and Holder were probably the pick.
It was the openers who got things going for them! However, they then lost two quick wickets but Moeen Ali and Jason Roy put on a fifty-run stand in quick time. When they were batting, 180 looked possible but both fell in quick succession. England then were pulled back and it seemed like, they would struggle to cross the 160-run mark. Jordan though played yet another decent cameo and some lusty blow from the lower-order has seen them breach the 170-run mark.
Quite a decent performance with the bat by England, surely a lot better than the last game. Not sure if they have got a score which could be enough but they certainly have a total above the average score here.
Back of a length, on leg. Mahmood dabs it to point for a single. ENGLAND END THEIR INNINGS AT 171/8.
FOUR! Nicely played. Short ball, on the body. Mahmood pulls it through mid-wicket for a boundary. 170 up for England.
Good length, on top of leg. Mahmood goes back and looks to push it to the off side but misses.
Short and on off, pulled through square leg for a brace.
