worked away to leg, the noball makes it a win for England.
West Indies vs England, 3rd Test at Bridgetown, Apr 01 2004 - Ball by Ball Commentary
And that's it: scenes of celebration on the England balcony. And they take the series, 3-0 up in the series with just one to go.
Vaughan and the rest down to the fence to shake hands with the West Indian team as they leave the field.
I'll leave our hard-working editorial team to summarize both the play and the historical context of this win, but do stick around for a few minutes for the presentation ceremony.
The presentations may take a while I suspect, since there's a camera crew in the England dressing room.
In the meantime: thank you very much indeed for all the compliments to comms@cricinfo.com, for myself (your regular evening session guy this Test) and my colleagues. h
It's been a pleasure to bring the series to you so far, and we hope you'll join us for the fourth Test, next Saturday in Antigua. See you then!
2 to win. England players all on their feet, caps on.
forward, bat high, lets it go through
Lara looking pensive, gnawing at a fingernail.
down the wrong line, beaten outside off
he'll be gutted at that: another nicely shaped ball, Trescothick probably guilty of trying to end it all quickly, does so but not in the way he intended.
tries to clip this away to leg, finds a fielder at midwicket
Swing Low rings round the Kensington Oval.
niiiice ball, moves away off the seam, beaten
England balcony on their feet.
driven straight to extra cover.
dug in, Butch has a somewhat uncontrolled pull, drops short of Best at deep square leg, the bounce does him
wide outside off, Butcher has an exuberant swing and attempt to fetch it to wide of mid on, misses.
The Barmy Army are happily chanting their theme song.
turned to leg
6 to win.
bouncer, well over the ducking Butcher
worked away to long leg, easy two rather makes that trickier.
There's just enough runs to get for Trescothick to make a fifty, if he and Butcher can manage the strike.
turned on the onside, look for a single, not there
forward, defends into the offside again.
defends into the offside
and then he goes and plays and misses outside off.
I think we can pronouce Marcus Trescothick well on the way to recovery. Short, wide, please-hit-me ball, gets the treatment, races to the point boundary.
May even have been a drop, that first ball.
lets that go through
chipped to Edwards at mid off, just short of him
especially not when he plays shots like that: sweet clip off his legs, long and futile chase for Lara at wide midoff
