T20 squad:

Carlos Brathwaite (Captain), Ronsford Beaton, Chris Gayle, Evin Lewis, Jason Mohammed, Sunil Narine, Ashley Nurse, Kieron Pollard, Rovman Powell, Marlon Samuels, Jerome Taylor, Chadwick Walton Kesrick Williams.

I presume WI start favourites for the T20 this afternoon?

keeps on tossing it down, up here.

I've no doubt there will be a game, because it isn't continuous, but it looks like it might be a grim experience for the paying punters

the non-paying punters will be okay though...... which is usually the case.

still keeps raining

Always seemed like a pointless match in any case - a one off T20 is one too many in a crowded schedule!

I think England are favourites because several west indies players failed in the recent CPL.

Ashley nurse
Jerome Taylor
Rovman Powell
Jason Muhammed

IMHO they are only there because of the ODI'S to follow.

Weather ok according to cricinfo.

Yeah, there have been in and off showers around CLS but they seem to be getting more infrequent. Should get a full game in...famous last words.

England Hales, Roy, Root, Morgan, Bairstow, Buttler, Rashid, Willey, Plunkett, Jordan, Curran

West Indies Gayle, Lewis, Samuels, Walton, Pollard, Powell, Brathwaite, Narine, Nurse, Taylor, Williams

Gayle force!

Don't England normally have another spinner in T20. Mo I suppose. Maybe Crane and Rashid is one too many leggie. Could do with another anyway.

Looks like WI have edged the PP.

Gayle out for 40 and Lewis for 50.

Four best econs from the Yorks bowlers...

This is why they win the T20 every year.

And a Durham style batting collapse by the Windies!

Just got in to see rain stop play.

As I type they're coming back out.
