Innings Break: West Indies finish on 245, well below the score they were aiming to get or when Barath and Sarwan were batting. It was the batting powerplay that destroyed the Windies batting, they lost wickets in succession. SSC is very dark at the moment, showers are expected and Messrs Duckworth and Lewis will be called into play. Join us after the lunch break at 1:45pm.
