ENG 76/2 (7)

What a fantastic period of play this has been for West Indies.

What appeared to be a breezy chase is now a tricky one, with both teams in with an equal shot. Sam Curran and captain Harry Brook now in the middle.

ENG: 99/4 (11)

Just when the partnership between Sam Curran and Harry Brook seemed to be growing in confidence, Gudakesh Motie sends back the England captain.
