[Arthur Crabtree]

This starts today. The England side looks a bit makeshift.

Jamie Smith, Ben Duckett, Joe Root, Harry Brook (captain), Jos Buttler (wicketkeeper), Jacob Bethell, Will Jacks, Jamie Overton, Brydon Carse, Saqib Mahmood, Adil Rashid.

Seem to have moved on from Phil Salt. Atkinson, Wood and Archer injured. Woakes and Livingstone omitted. New captain. Fresh start.

[Arthur Crabtree]

WI to bowl first.

Brandon King, Justin Greaves, Keacy Carty, Shai Hope (c), Amir Jangoo, Roston Chase, Jewel Andrew, Matthew Forde, Gudakesh Motie, Alzarri Joseph, Jayden Seales

[Arthur Crabtree]

Well, a pretty handy start from England.

[mikesiva]

West Indies bowling some real tripe!

[Arthur Crabtree]

Need to get Brook and Buttler sharpish or it could get messy.

[Arthur Crabtree]

The top four are out, so WI could pull this around. Not as if Englad never collapse quickly in ODIs once Root is out.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Buttler goes. This could be the tipping point...

[Arthur Crabtree]

Or not. 400. Can't remember if that's a great score anymore. But I guess it is.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Not the greatest England attack, however.

[mikesiva]

England 400-8

Bethell 82
Duckett 60
Brook 58
Root 57

Seales 4-84
Greaves 2-68
Alzarri 2-69

[Arthur Crabtree]

Looks like Overton injured. An opening for WI?

[Arthur Crabtree]

Probably a dislocated finger. So may be back.

...Bowling again now.

[mikesiva]

Chase dismissal capped off a shocking batting performance.

Overton set the field for short bowling. Chase hooked a bouncer straight into the hands of square leg.

[mikesiva]

West Indies 162 all out

Hope 25

Overton 3-22
Mahmoud 3-32
Rashid 2-50
