142.2 to BA Stokes, No double for Stokes, no 400 balls face, and Roach has a wicket! Stokes trudges off, applauded by his team-mates for a cracking knock regardless... Always looking to be positive, he attempted to reverse-slap this off a length, only managed a tickle through to Dowrich. 395/6
142.3 to CR Woakes, TWO IN TWO!! Reward for Kemar, who's been plugging away valiantly without success in the series until now... Full and shaping away, stiff prod from Woakes and a thick edge flew straight to gully. All happening, and England might not mind that right now. 395/7
2627903.031185054
23.157013.021074100
31.2 to JE Root, full, tempting, slashed to slip! Joseph gets Root with a classic full, outswinger - big breakthrough for West Indies, and Holder, the catcher, celebrates accordingly! Fourth time Joseph has got Root in his last five innings (going back to England's tour of the Caribbean in 2018-19). Big drive ball, Root looking to motor, dings the bodywork. 81/3
32107012.181597001
154.4 to JC Buttler, swung high leg side, picks out the man on the boundary! Joseph reacts as if he didn't pick it up, but he held on competently enough (luckily he didn't have to move far), and that sees Buttler depart for a middling 40/the third-best score on the card, depending on your perspective. 426/8
44317253.9017714300
13.2 to RJ Burns, going on straight, past the inside edge, up goes the finger! Is that the breakthrough, on the stroke of lunch?? Burns reviews, but he doesn't look confident, particularly if there's no bat involved. Shocker from Burns, hitting the top third of middle stump, that's as plumb as they come! Chase retains his status as an bogey bowler for England, and that'll perk up the Windies going in for lunch. 29/1
13.3 to Z Crawley, would you believe it?! Chase is on a hat-trick! Length ball, bit of spin, Crawley looks to flick round the corner and Holder takes a low catch at leg slip! What a start to the session for West Indies, but not a particularly clever shot from Crawley. 29/2
125.6 to DP Sibley, uses his feet to skip down the track, and holes out to Roach running round from deep midwicket! Skipped down, but nowhere near the middle of the bat, and Roach in the deep takes a good low catch to end Sibley's epic. 341/4
129.5 to OJ Pope, trapped on the pad, and given! Playing back to a full ball, and Pope managed to sandwich it between his pads at knee-roll-height. Thinks about the review, but thinks better of it. Decent turn from outside off, through a lazy push too early, and Chase celebrates his fourth!. 352/5
155.3 to SM Curran, tries to reverse-sweep, comes off the top edge - that's five for Chase! Curran won't be boshing it around in the evening sunshine, as he's mucked up that shot, offering a simple catch to backward point. Decent reward for Chase's holding role. 427/9

82.2 to SSJ Brooks, that's plumb! Broad wags his finger, before briefly glancing round to check he's got the decision this time... Fired at the pegs and Brooks was trapped bang in front of middle and off, maybe stayed a little low. Actually, it was the length that did it, should have been trying to get forward but pinned by one that would have hit middle three-quarters of the way up. New ball does the trick for England. 242/5
84.4 to J Blackwood, castled! Straight through him, bit of a grubber, little Blackwood could do as he loitered in the crease... Two in two overs for Broad, who's suddenly looking his old self (bandana aside). Roars in, hits his length and sees the ball cannon into middle and off. 248/6
86.3 to SO Dowrich, stuck on the crease, Broad is off celebrating again, with just half a backward glance... Michael Gough gives it, but Dowrich reviews pretty quickly, perhaps thinking it's high and leg side. But that's not what Hawk-Eye says, reds on all three, top of leg stump and Dowrich is blasted out! Three in 14 balls for Broad, he is on one!. 252/7
21104232.001085000
90.2 to JO Holder, steered to slip, West Indies aren't out of the woods yet! No respite from Woakes, who strikes with his second ball, chiselling out the Windies' captain with that nagging line of his. Wowee, this could get tight!. 260/8
98.1 to RL Chase, trapped in front, Gough says no! England review... Looked pretty adjacent at first glance, nipped in a fair way from outside off and slammed Chase just below the knee roll. Don't think there was bat involved... a tiny shimmer on UltraEdge, but surely not conclusive? No bat involved, says Kettleborough. Impact in-line, and smashing into leg stump two-thirds of the way up!. 287/9
98.6 to ST Gabriel, bowled 'im! Slower ball does for Gabriel, offcutter down at 72mph/116kph, and pings into off stump. 287 all out. 287/10
2047023.509111000
9.4 to JD Campbell, slightly full of a length, struck on the pad... not given. England think about it, and decide to review. No real movement, hit both pads but crucially the front one first. I reckon this is a good shout, you know. Yep, hitting in line, and striking leg stump two-thirds of the way up. All that focus on pace from England before the first Test, and Sam Curran strikes with his gentle mediums in his first over of the series..!. 16/1
45.4 to SD Hope, in the corridor, Hope fiddles at it, nicks off! Offcutter does the job, Curran breaks through for England! Hope looks disconsolately down the pitch, but he's been sucked into playing at one from the tricksy left-armer, and has to trudge off for another neither-nor score. 123/3
2136713.19957000
24.2 to AS Joseph, strikes second ball! Straight off the bat face to short leg, Joseph has been winkled out, Bess straight into the action! Tossed the first one up, then pushed the follow-up through quicker and went with the turn, poked to the right of Pope and he grabbed it one-handed. 70/2
11000.0060000
1332912.23654002
68.1 to KC Brathwaite, back of a length from round the wicket, Brathwaite looks to flick into the leg side and gets a leading edge back to the bowler which is duly gobbled up! They'll check the back foot, but he's fine. Finally a reward for Stokes, bit of a nothing ball and a nothing shot after West Indies resisted fairly easily against this spell of short stuff, but a little lapse in concentration has given Stokes his reward. 199/4

4.1 to Z Crawley, tiiiiiimber! Middle stump goes flying. Crawley clears the front dog looking for a mow down the ground, doesn't get near it, and Roach has another! Big roar of celebration. 17/2

1554232.80737000
0.5 to JD Campbell, beaten outside off, England go up for the caught-behind. Root and Buttler don't look convinced, but Root reviews with half a second to spare on the timer. Loose drive outside off, flies past the outside edge in line with the stickers and there's a spike on Ultra-Edge! England have a wicket in the first over. 7/1
8.5 to SD Hope, bowled him! Hope is cut in half, good length ball which nips in off the seam, flies between bat and pad as Hope gropes at it, and whacks into the top of off! Hope got in a real tangle there, but there's little shame in that against a brute of a delivery. 23/3
14.6 to RL Chase, nip-backer, no shot, up goes the finger! And Chase won't review, though it looked a tight one to me... Broad was off and running with his arm raised, like Alan Shearer in his pomp, but although Chase looked pretty peeved with the decision, he chooses not to quarrel with it. Shaving off stump? We'll soon see... Hitting the top of off, so an excellent decision from umpire Illingworth!. 37/4
1633422.12783000
7.6 to KC Brathwaite, struck on the pad, and given! Slightly full of a length, and this looked pretty good to the naked eye... yep, Brathwaite won't bother with a review. Struck above the knee roll on the back pad, looking to defend from under his eyes, but looked adjacent. 19/2
43.2 to SO Dowrich, oh my, Dowrich walks across and misses a flick, given lbw... he reviews but I think this is hopeful, as you could see leg stump. Very similar to his first-innings dismissal, stuck on the crease trying to work off his pads, and it's umpire's call on ball-tracking! Pair for Dowrich, who hasn't looked comfortable against England's tactics in this Test. 138/6
833013.75386000
55.5 to SSJ Brooks, caught on the crease, Curran bags him in front! Stays down, hit on the knee roll, Curran screams in celebration... and there's no review from Brooks, he walks off head bowed, knowing there's a helluva lot for his team still to do from here. Looked adjacent, and I guess he knew there was no bat, not that it stops most from playing fruities with the DRS. 161/7
15.135923.89665300
62.5 to JO Holder, bowled him! Bess does it with a ripper out of the rough! Had Holder got overconfident? Who knows, but he lunged forward and left a big gap, Bess got this to spin sharply from wide of off, darting in to rattle middle stump and send England into raptures! Classical stuff. 183/8
70.1 to KAJ Roach, stunning catch from Pope at short leg! That's some way to seal it. Bess was full from round the wicket, Roach nudged into the leg side. Pope parried it up from knee height, then flung himself at full stretch to his left to take the rebound catch, and England win by 113 runs!. 198/10
14.443022.04721000
42.4 to J Blackwood, short ball at the ribcage, gloved round the corner, loops up and Buttler takes the catch! Diving forward, sharp work by Buttler behind the stumps, and Stokes gets his reward eventually. Blackwood had fought valiantly against the short ball but eventually falls for 55. 137/5
65.6 to AS Joseph, fullish outside off, looks for the drive again and chips it straight to Bess behind square! Looked to drive through mid-off, but the bat turned in his hand and it flew right at Bess, in at backward point. No need to play at that, but Alzarri couldn't resist. 192/9
