ENG beat WI by 232 runs | England vs West Indies, Highlights And Cricket Score 3rd Test Match - Commentary

10 minutes to go for the Lunch interval. Can England prise out a wicket or two before the break? The game is about to resume. Let's play!

A slightly better batting display from England. But again, they have missed out on opportunities. As many as 5 chances were given to them - with 3 dropped catches, a missed run out and the infamous no ball dismissal of Stokes last evening. But still, no one could get a century. The 125-run stand between Buttler and Stokes was the only talking point of the innings and the moment the former was cleaned up this morning, England folded up like a pack of cards. They have lost 6/45 in 16.5 overs. Stokes' 79 and Buttler's 67 highlight the innings but the third highest scorer was Mr. Extras - 38 - 16 wides and 6 no balls dominating the list. Might be crucial given the nature of the pitch.

Roach was menacing, as he shrug off yesterday's bemoans to pick up 4 today. Gabriel was pacy and continuously at the batsmen. And now, the fact which makes this bowling attack look even more fearsome - the backup bowlers. If England thought they had only to see off Roach and Gabriel, they were wrong. Alzarri Joseph and Keemo Paul maintained the same intensity and did not allow easy runs. Finished with 2 apiece.

It has taken the Windies just 18.5 overs this morning to take 6 wickets. They were shy of luck yesterday and eventually, gave vent to their frustration. But this morning, they bowled with fine accuracy and have brought about another English collapse. 232/4, looking good for 350 at least, has ended 23 short of 300.

Well, Windies have a small headache in spite of such a terrific bowling effort. They will have to see off a nasty period of around 8-10 minutes before Lunch. Never easy those. But the time now, is to marvel on their improving and deadly pace battery.

Kemar Roach to James Anderson. OUT! Bounced out! Who is this bowling? Mitchell Johnson? Dale Steyn? Pat Cummins? No. It is Kemar Roach. It is THE Kemar Roach whom we know of. Not that same pace but deadly accurate. A short ball, from around the wicket, right at the body. Anderson has nowhere to go as he simply fends at it. Gets hit on the glove and the ball just lobs to third slip where Keemo Paul does the rest. No wicket for Roach on Saturday - 4 on Sunday! ENGLAND ARE BOWLED OUT FOR 277.

Kemar Roach to James Anderson. A tantalizing yorker, around middle, Anderson digs it out somehow.

James Anderson is the last man in. Windies will hope that the last wicket stand lasts for at least 13 more minutes...

Kemar Roach to Mark Wood. OUT! Spectacular running catch! Alzarri, boy, you are one gem of a kid. Bowls with heart, plenty of pace, plenty of dedication and give your 100 percent in the field. A surprise short ball from Roach, given that the ball is swinging so much. But Wood is ready for it and instinctively goes for the pull. However, he is done in by it and gets a top edge. For a second, it seems like it will clear the boundary but Joseph runs to his right from fine leg and makes a difficult catch look simple. And better - NO reaction from him at all. Has been a difficult week for him.

Kemar Roach to Mark Wood. Wow. What a delivery. Starts around off stump, finishes around leg. And the length? A perfect yorker. But Wood digs it out. Both fast bowlers smile. The one batting, the one bowling.

Kemar Roach to Mark Wood. Full and around off, swinging in, appreciably flicked through square leg for a couple. Good running.

Alzarri Joseph to Stuart Broad. Down the leg side, Stuart misses his flick. 5/2 in the last 2 overs.

Alzarri Joseph to Stuart Broad. On a good length around off, Broad looks to tuck it to the leg side but misses and is hit on the thighs.

Alzarri Joseph to Stuart Broad. Around off, punched towards mid off.

Alzarri Joseph to Stuart Broad. Full and wide outside off, left alone.

This pitch is for him. But probably an hour later, when he gets the ball in his hand. Here comes Stuart Broad who must be licking his lips already looking at the movement on this track.

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. OUT! Edged and taken! Alzarri's toil fetches him rewards. Moeen is gone now. A length ball outside off, Ali cannot control his fishing earnestness and pokes at it. A thick outside edge results and Darren Bravo completes the formalities at first slip. Might have been some extra bounce on that ball which eked the edge.

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. WIDE! Miles outside off, left alone and wided.

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. On a good length around middle, tucked towards square leg.

Kemar Roach to Mark Wood. FOUR RUNNING RUNS! Great bowling, excellent running. Full and around off, swinging in a mile. Credit to Wood for watching the ball till the last moment and then flicking it through mid-wicket. The ball does not exactly race away to the fence but neither does Shannon Gabriel. He jogs after the cherry, from mid on and surprisingly for him, the ball stops. Poor man has to now put in the hard yards to get to the ball and that gives enough time for the batsmen to cross each other 4 times. That would have warmed up Wood nicely. 100 OVERS ARE UP.

Into the bowlers. The first of them is Mark Wood.

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. OUT! TIMBERRRR! The yesteryear old 2-card trick works for Roach. After bowling a short ball previously, he cunningly slips in a full ball. Clearly, Bairstow is not expecting it as he is late on the drive. Because the ball is not pacy, at least, according to the speed gun. It reads 133 kph. But he is still late on the drive. It swings back in, takes the inside edge, hits the pads and boom. Into the stumps. So Bairstow was dropped on 2 and has been dismissed on 2. His poor run continues...

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. A bouncer now, Jonny ducks.

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. Full and around off, pushed back to the bowler.

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. WHERE IS YOUR SHORT LEG? Wicket number 7 could have gone down. Or maybe not. On a good length again, outside off, coming in, Jonny looks to flick and it seems like the ball has taken the inside edge and gone through the vacant short leg region towards square leg. But replays seem to indicate that there was no bat at all. I think the ophthalmologist in my area has a Sunday off. Must visit him first thing in the morning tomorrow.

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. On a good length outside off, plenty of inward movement in the air, Bairstow plays that late, with soft hands and hence gets an outside edge which does not carry to the slip cordon.

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. Full and around off, swinging in late, Ali just about gets his bat out to defend as he skews it back to the bowler.

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. Cut into half. On a good length, around off, Moeen looks to defend but the ball seams in a long way, goes between bat and pad and just goes over the top of the stumps!

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. Short and wide outside off, MA slaps it through the covers but the damp outfield prevents the ball from racing away. Kraigg Brathwaite gets to it from the ring and the batsmen return for the second.

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. Full and straight, watchfully patted back.

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. Excellent length. Just short of full, around off. Ali looks to defend but misses.

Alzarri Joseph to Moeen Ali. Full and around middle, swinging in, flicked through mid-wicket for a couple. Moeen moves to 11 from 15 balls. Jonny is still on 2...

Alzarri Joseph to bowl for the first time today. 15-2-56-1 so far.

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. Outside off, on a length, Jonny looks to punch it through the off side but his feet don't move while the ball moves. Nips in to take the inner half of the bat, deflecting towards mid on.

Kemar Roach to Moeen Ali. On middle and leg, flicked through mid-wicket for a run.

Kemar Roach to Moeen Ali. Full again, in that tempting area, inviting Ali to drive but the batsman resists. The ball swings away nicely to the keeper.

Kemar Roach to Moeen Ali. Full and outside off, Moeen shoulders arms.

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. NOT OUT. No inside edge, impact is fine but the ball is projected to be going over the top. Windies are done with their reviews for this innings. On a length outside off, Jonny walks into the shot to defend but misses the length. He is hit on the pads and Windies appeal and seem pretty shocked that it is turned down. They are busy discussing about the review when Moeen smartly observes that the ball is not yet dead. He calls Bairstow for the single and completes it safely. Now, Brathwaite takes the review but sadly for him and his team, it just wastes some time.

A review for LBW! The bowler has convinced his skipper that Bairstow is gone. Looks not out to the naked eye. Plenty of possibilities. Inside edge, impact, height...

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. JB is hit again. On a good length outside off, Bairstow shoulders arms but the ball comes back in a long way and hits him. Just below the box this time.

Keemo Paul to Moeen Ali. Into the bread basket. A good length ball, around off, MA looks to defend but the ball seams in appreciably, takes the glove and hits him on the abdomen.

Keemo Paul to Moeen Ali. The batsman shows the full face of the bat and defends the ball off the back foot.

Keemo Paul to Moeen Ali. LOOSE! But that is how he plays. Full and wide outside off, Ali reaches out to drive and spoons it over point! Two runs taken.

Keemo Paul to Moeen Ali. Opportunity missed. A half volley again, this time on the pads. Perfect recipe for a boundary through mid-wicket. But just like food does not feel entirely tasty if there is no salt, a shot feels nothing if it is not executed properly. Here, Moeen misses his flick and wears it on the pads. Of course, apologies to diabetic people...

Keemo Paul to Moeen Ali. Half volley outside off, driven through the covers for a couple.

Keemo Paul to Moeen Ali. Full and wide outside off, left alone.

Bairstow is taking a moment for himself. Totally understandable. Nothing much the physio can do about this. It is something which one has to bear and just hope that the pain subsides soon.

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. OUCH! On the box. That is not a sharp ball from Roach but accurate enough. It is bowled at 131 kph but it hits the grassy part on the pitch and zips back in. And quickly. Jonny looks to defend but misses. Oops...

Kemar Roach to Jonny Bairstow. On a good length outside off, coming in with the angle, Bairstow looks to defend but the ball takes the inner half of the bat and rolls towards short mid-wicket.

Kemar Roach to Moeen Ali. Somehow Moeen finds the gap. On a good length, outside off, going away off the deck. Ali pushes it towards gully who dives to his left but it sneaks through. Darren Bravo gives it a good chase from first slip, gets to the ball and stops it before crossing over. Three runs taken.

Kemar Roach to Moeen Ali. In line of the off stump, watchfully pushed towards mid off.

Kemar Roach to Moeen Ali. Landed outside off, more outswing, shouldered arms to.

Kemar Roach to Moeen Ali. Full and outside off, swinging away, pushed towards gully.

Drinks break. An hour of hostile bowling by Windies. Shannon Gabriel, in particular, had a lot of fire in his deliveries and removed Jos Buttler early. Minutes before this mini-break, Kemar Roach got rid of Ben Stokes, courtesy a stunning catch by Shane Dowrich and the hosts are going along well. England bat deep and let's see for how long they can stretch their innings.

Keemo Paul to Jonny Bairstow. Play and a miss! Bairstow runs out of patience, tries to smash a short ball across the line but misses.

Keemo Paul to Jonny Bairstow. Was there an outside edge? There is certainly something but no one appealed. It has to be bat. Anyway, if they are not bothered why should we? A length ball nipping away from outside off, Jonny hangs his bat out as he pushes inside the line and misses. Dowrich collects it behind. Would love to see what the Snicko says on this...

Keemo Paul to Jonny Bairstow. Helps it off his pads to the leg side but finds mid-wicket.

Keemo Paul to Jonny Bairstow. Sliding down the leg side, Bairstow fails to flick and Dowrich once again is in action. Diving across and saving runs.

Keemo Paul to Jonny Bairstow. Chooses to leave the ball outside his off stump.

Keemo Paul to Moeen Ali. Angling into the batsman, Ali works it on the leg side and gets off the mark with a run.

Moeen Ali's turn to bat now.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. OUT! Dowrich has taken a stunner! Wow, great athleticism. Roach gets a breakthrough. He delivers a short one outside off, Stokes shapes up for the pull shot but it arrives late to catch the top edge. It balloons in the air towards square leg, Dowrich wears his skates and scoots towards it and then completes the catch with a full length dive. Maybe, he realized late that he has to go for it as fine leg would not have reached it. Still does a brilliant job not only to get there but grab it well. Superb. The Windies players mob him. Gabriel in fact gives a frog-splash to Dowrich who was lying flat on the ground. Jason Holder in the pavilion is clapping. Stokes returns but not before playing a good hand.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. Lets out a grunt and delivers a good length ball outside off. Stokes shuffles across the stumps to cover the line this time and then shoulders arms.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Turns a length ball easily in the gap on the leg side for one.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. The ball is too wide on the off side for the batsman to make any contact.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Gets away with a bad delivery this time. Slips a length ball down the leg side, Stokes doesn't get any wood behind it.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. FOUR! And it's a no ball as well for overstepping, sixth of the innings, of which, Keemo has bowled five. Amazing indiscipline. Does he look up to Shannon Gabriel for inspiration? Clearly picking the wrong habits of Shannon. Anyway, coming to the delivery, it's short and on middle, Stokes is on top of the bounce as he pulls it behind square leg for a boundary.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Walks down the track a bit to counter the movement and then blocks it safely.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Angles in a length ball on off, it's defended off the back foot.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Beaten! Lovely seam presentation from Paul. He doesn't have the express pace but possesses good skills. Gets a length ball to move away off the seam at 130 kph, Stokes pushes inside the line without any footwork and is beaten.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Dropped! Gabriel puts down a straightforward chance in his followthrough. Never easy but should have been taken. A length ball angling back into the batsman, Bairstow gets forward and drives it back uppishly. Shannon reacts quickly to his right but it doesn't stick. Early reprieve for Jonny.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Switches to over the wicket and angles in a full ball on off, Jonny defends it from the crease to the off side.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. A short delivery which has been pulled away. They pick up a single. 250 up for England.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. Around off, defended off the back foot.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. Stokes goes down. Gabriel runs towards him, not to help him out but to utter some words. Just to let the batsman know who is on top. Stokes smiles and gives it back quietly. All in good fun. A length ball around middle, nipping in sharply at 146 kph, Stokes tries to keep it out but misses and takes a blow on his thigh pad. Ben loses his balance in the process. Doesn't go completely flat on the ground but is on his knees.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. Good length ball outside off, Stokes defends it from the crease to the off side.

Keemo Paul to Jonny Bairstow. In the channel around off, left alone by Bairstow. That wasn't too far away from the off pole.

Keemo Paul to Jonny Bairstow. Wide outside off stump, the batsman leaves it alone.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Risky run. Stokes walks forward and pushes it towards covers. They cross as the fielder misses his shy at the striker's end. Jonny really had to put on his skates.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Looks for another drive through the line but it shapes back in to beat the inside edge.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Tries for a cover drive but inside edges it past the stumps to square leg for a couple.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Stays back to a length ball and punches it out to the off side.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. FOUR LEG BYES! A snorter by Gabriel. Lets out a lethal short ball at 150 kph, well-directed, Bairstow tries his best to sway away from the line of fire by leaning back but it keeps on following him and brushes the grille of his helmet before flying over the keeper for a boundary. Jonny wears a brave smile on his face. Mind you, he was in all sorts of trouble there. Also, will have to mention his good technique. Eyes on the ball almost till the end with his wrists nicely down. This is great Test match stuff. One for the purists. The bowler bowling with venom and the batsmen trying to survive.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Keeps this one close to off stump, on a length and straightening just a touch, Bairstow takes his front leg forward to cover the off stump and then allows it through.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Defended off the back foot by the batsman.

Shannon Gabriel pulls out at the last moment. Maybe, he felt that he was about to overstep. Given their overrate, these things will hurt them only. Already they are without their regular skipper for that very reason.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Good length ball on off, angling in, Stokes covers his stumps and shoulders arms. Fine first over by Paul.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. Lands it on a length around off, Stokes pushes it with gentle hands and it goes off the outer half towards the slip cordon. Not carrying.

Keemo Paul to Ben Stokes. A length ball angling into the batsman, Stokes tries to defend but misses. He is hit on the pads. They appeal but to no avail. Maybe going down leg or some inside edge.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. Gabriel changes his angle for the left-hander and serves it on middle and leg. Stokes tickles it fine down the leg side for a run. Few words exchanged between the bowler and Stokes. Nothing overboard. All in limits.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Stands back inside the crease to a shortish ball and drops it with soft hands to covers for a run. Good calling by Jonny.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Inside edge! Gabriel gets this one to talk. Sharp inward movement from a length outside off at 146 kph, Bairstow is caught inside the crease trying to defend and it takes the inside edge before hitting him on the pads. Shannon has been right on the money since morning, unlike Roach.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Slightly short and on off, at 140 kph, Jonny is on his toes as he plays it down towards gully. 'Nooooo' is shout straightaway from him. Anyway there was no run on offer.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. On a driving length outside off, not much movement this time, just going with the angle. Bairstow covers his stumps and then leaves it.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. Defended off the front foot by the batsman presenting the full face of the bat.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. Gets squared up there, Ben. Roach bowls it a touch short on off with the seam pointing towards the slip cordon. Stokes tries to defend from the crease but gets opened up and it hits him on the thigh pad. The bowler needs to serve such deliveries on a consistent basis.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. Back of a length ball angling in on off, Stokes defends it off his back foot.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. FOUR! Easy pickings! Roach has been either too far outside off or too close to the pads. This time it's the latter and Stokes helps himself to a boundary by budging it fine on the leg side.

A fielder comes in at covers.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. Better, much better from Kemar. Angles in a full ball around off, Stokes is forced to play at it and he blocks it off his front foot to the off side.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. Roach has been wayward with his line. Bowls it too wide outside off, on a back of a length, Stokes has nothing to do with it.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Good length ball around off, Bairstow stays back and taps it down in the direction of gully. Dot ball to end a successful over for the Windies.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. A wayward delivery. Fires a length ball way wide down the leg side, Stokes tries flicking but it's too far from him. Dowrich flies to his right and parries it to fine leg. They take a bye.

Shannon Gabriel to Jonny Bairstow. Off the mark first ball. Full and on middle, at 145 kph, Bairstow clips it off his pads towards mid-wicket and opens his account with a run.

Jonny Bairstow walks in next.

Shannon Gabriel to Jos Buttler. OUT! Timberrrr... A 146 kph delivery by Shannon Gabriel has done the trick. He spears it on a length around off and gets it move back in a bit. Buttler plays all around it with a sorry footwork. It goes right through the gate and shatters the stumps. The 125-run stand is broken and Windies have a perfect start to the morning.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. Brilliant delivery. That line around off forced the batsman to play at it but the away movement beat the outside edge. Stokes too was not entirely committed into the shot. Maiden to start with for Kemar Roach!

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. Too wide on this occasion, a comfortable leave this time for Ben Stokes.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. Begins with a full length ball around off, from 'round the wicket, Stokes defends it solidly.

All in readiness. The Windies players are near the boundary line as the sun is shining brightly on them. Out come Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler in the middle as well. The Barmy Army welcomes them with a warm round of applause. Shannon Gabriel to begin proceedings...

Pitch report - Daren Ganga is expecting interruptions today as well due to rains. Says that this pitch has got the most pace compared to the last two venues. Adds that it will be still good for batting though and that will continue. Feels that the quicker bowlers might just get the reward if they put it in the right areas.

Keemo Paul is giving an interview to Daren Ganga. He says that he wanted to hit the straps early. On his progress, he says that he has been bowling well and hopes to make big contributions. On the pitch, he feels it's a good one where they have to hit the right lines and lengths. Mentions that they have to do the basics right and stay patient. On him replacing Holder, Keemo says that Jason is an exceptional player and he will try his best to contribute, not only with the ball but also with the bat.

We witnessed a terrific battle between bat and ball on Day 1 where the bowlers were on top for most parts, dictating terms. Luck was not on their side otherwise they would have run through in the morning. Their fortunes did change post Lunch where they picked three wickets but after that it was superb batting by the pair of Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler. They are still unbeaten, eyeing their respective centuries, and are amidst a 124-run partnership. The hosts would like to use the early morning conditions with the second new ball (only three overs old) and create inroads. Will they succeed? Let's wait and watch.

How's the weather? That's the first thing in everyone's minds. We are hearing that it was raining early in the morning but it has cleared for now and the covers are off. A little while ago, the sun was peeping out and let's hope it stays that way for most parts today. On that positive note, let me welcome you all for the coverage of the final Test match between Windies and England in Gros Islet.

... DAY 2, FIRST SESSION ...

Now then, what can we expect on Day 2? England will still have a few good batsmen to come so they will surely be aiming at something above 300 at least. The hosts on the other hand, will need to break this partnership quickly and then try and run through the remaining wickets. One probably feels, they need to keep the away side under the 300-run mark or anything above that, on this wicket, will be too much of a task. They though will need to bowl better by attack the stumps a lot more. Can they do so? Join us to find out at 1000 local (1400 GMT). Till then, take care and goodbye!

Windies on the other hand, will be very disappointed with their effort, both, with the ball and in the field. They were wayward with their lines a little too often. Their catching was below par which is proving to be quite costly already. Also, Stokes' wicket off the no ball probably sums up their day today. Keemo Paul however, was the pick of the lot. He looked threatening throughout and ended the day with two. Gabriel was also good but lacked consistency.

Day 1 however, did not start in the best of manners for the visitors. They lost the toss and were inserted. They scored very slowly for majority of the two sessions, their run rate was around the 2 runs per over mark. Once again the top three did not make an impact, Root too failed. They were reeling at 107 for 4 but Stokes and Butter's unbeaten 124-run stand, with both scoring half tons have seen England end the day as the happier side.

What a session for England! A wicket-less one and also the English side has managed to score 117 runs in this one. Excellent, especially how they have gone about today. They entered the final passage of play in a spot of bother but have ended the day on top.

The light has been offered and the batsmen have taken it. They begin walking off towards the dressing room to a standing ovation by the fans and the dressing room. THAT WILL BE STUMPS ON DAY 1!

Keemo Paul to Jos Buttler. 50 for Buttler, his 13th in Tests. One reason why you do not drop quality players, they will make you pay. Normally you do not see Buttler playing second fiddle to someone but he has done it really well here. His innings has been more about patience and he has crafted a wonderful half ton.

Alzarri Joseph to Ben Stokes. OUT! No, it has been signaled as a no ball as Joesph has nothing behind the line. Ben Stokes though has already made his way back in the pavilion but now he has been called back. What a let off this is! This could prove very costly. A short ball and it is outside off, Stokes looks to drag his pull, the ball though skids through and even before the shot is completed, it hits his bat and goes uppishly back to the bowler. He takes a sharp catch. The Windies start celebrating, Stokes has almost made it back into the dressing room but then the umpire decides to check the front foot. Time for the replays and it show that Joseph has overstepped. However, it could be argued that once Stokes has left the field, he can't be called back but the the on-air commentators mention that the third umpire has just confirmed that the batsman could be called back before the next ball is bowled. Thanks to the change in laws. Big moment in the game this.

Right from the start, he has played with good intent on a pitch which has not been easy to bat on and has brought up a very crucial half ton. A knock of great character this. He needs to continue now and make it count. He gets a gift to get to that milestone. Short and outside off, Stokes goes back and slaps it through covers for a boundary.

We are back for the final session. 40 overs to go so we are in for a long one. Jos Buttler will be on strike and he will face Keemo Paul. Here we go...

... Day 1, Session 3 ...

England need a partnership. This is a pitch prepared for Stuart Broad, Mark Wood and Ben Stokes. Get through the final session, try and get close to 250-300 by tomorrow and you might well avoid a brownwash. Join us back at 3 pm local (1930 GMT).

The pitch has plenty in it. The grass is helping the seamers and the Windies are bowling their hearts out. If any criticism, it would be their flirting with the wide lines outside off. Agreed, that they are playing with the batsmen's patience but if they keep bowling in the areas just outside off, might as well cause more trouble.

After Lunch, the hosts threatened to finish it off quickly with wickets of Burns and Denly. But Root and Buttler dug in and almost saw off the session, when just before the break, Alzarri removed the English skipper. The home side might really start dreaming of batting tonight itself - Bairstow and Moeen to come next, if the Buttler-Stokes pair is dislodged cheaply.

Ben Stokes walks in at number 6, replacing his skipper.

Alzarri Joseph to Joe Root. OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! That surely must have been a feather there. The appeal wasn't a loud one, also we here too did not hear anything. Windies will rejoice though as they have got the English skipper. A soft dismissal to be honest. It is short and outside off, Root looks to cut with no foot movement. It takes the faintest of edges and goes to the keeper. A stifled appeal follows and the umpire agrees. Root also walks back without taking the review so there surely might be an edge. His poor string of scores continues and a crucial breakthrough for Windies. This is Root's 7th consecutive innings without a half century for Root, his worst run in Test cricket so far. Also, replays later on show, it is the toe-end and not the outside edge.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. FOUR! Top class! Full and around off, Root just leans into it and strokes it through covers for a boundary.

Kemar Roach to Jos Buttler. Make it one more leave to end the 40th over. Very slow progress from England. They are caught in a shell, not going anywhere. Where is the New England? Where is the new positive approach? Either they are flashing blindly or just looking to block. Rotating the strike might help them a bit.

Kemar Roach to Jos Buttler. Roach delivers one in the corridor again, Jos is content in leaving.

Kemar Roach to Jos Buttler. Bowls it from wide of the crease and lands it outside off, Buttler makes another leave.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Keeps on bowling in the corridor outside off, Root is more patient post Drinks as he is not chasing those.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Way wide outside off, Joe has nothing to do with it.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Good length delivery outside off, left alone.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Five wides! Bonus runs. England won't mind it. Paul loses his line completely and slips a length ball way down the leg side. No chance for Root or the keeper to get anywhere near it. It runs away happily to the fence.

Drinks break. Another testing hour for England where they lost a couple of wickets. The top 3 are back in the hut and now it's all up to Joe Root and the experienced middle order to revive things. The Windies bowlers have been simply superb with their efforts and are keeping the touring team on the edge. We're hoping more of the same in the next hour.

Shannon Gabriel to Jos Buttler. EDGE AND FOUR! Again! Full and outside off, Buttler goes at it with hard hands, it goes off the outer half and over the point fielder and into the fence.

Shannon Gabriel to Jos Buttler. Wide outside off, Buttler lets it go this time.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. The batsman lets the ball go outside his off stump. A testing over comes to a close.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Edged but safe! Exemplary delivery. Landing on a length around off and nipping away, Root is stuck inside the crease as he pushes inside the line. Gets a thick outside edge which falls in front of the first slip fielder. He loses his balance after that and nearly hurt the fielder standing next to him.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Angles in a full ball on off, Root is on the front foot in defense. He is yet to get off the mark.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Beaten! Root is looking very unsettled in the middle. Going after everything outside off. Signs of a batsman not in form. Back of a length delivery outside, Joe tries to force it through the line but fails to make any connection.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Stays back and defends it with an angled bat to the off side.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Root has defended it by getting right behind the line of the delivery.

Shannon Gabriel to Jos Buttler. DROPPED AND FOUR! Gabriel can't believe it! Hetmyer is the culprit. He probably should have left it for the first slip fielder who would have had it easier. The tempter, full and outside off, Buttler can't resist and goes after it. The length however was not the right one to look for the drive and hence, the outside edge is induced. It flies in between second slip and first at a good height. Hetmyer in the former position jumps and stretches his left hand out but the ball kisses the fingertips and races over the outstretched hands of Darren at second slip towards the third man fence. It was difficult for Shimron but had he left it, Bravo at first slip, who is a little deeper might have had a better chance of catching it. Nevertheless, a reprieve for Buttler and he gets off the mark. He will surely want to make Windies pay for this now.

Shannon Gabriel to Jos Buttler. A little short, aimed at the rib-cage. The batsman nudges it towards mid-wicket.

Shannon Gabriel to Jos Buttler. Full and wide outside off, Buttler first thinks of having a go at it but then bails out.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. A wayward ball to end! Down the leg side, Dowrich dives and does well there. Except for the last ball, it was testing over. Also, the run rate now has dipped below 2 runs per over.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. This time it is outside off, Root need not play at those.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Right on the money once again! Length and around off, Root this time though defends it right off the middle.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. This is very good bowling here! Keemo is bowling it nice and full, letting the ball do its bit. The line is also on off, swings away, finds Root's outside edge and goes along the ground to point.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Another outswinger but it is outside off, left alone.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. On the fuller side, shapes away a little. Root stays rooted to his crease and drives it back to the bowler.

Jos Buttler walks out to the middle.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. OUT! Three reds and now England too have lost a review. Not sure why Denly reviewed there, that was plumb, only bat could save him. Windies won't care though as one wicket has brought another for them. Both the set batsmen are back in the hut now. Length delivery this, it is pitched around off and it skids through. Denly goes back and tries to keep it out but ends up playing outside the line. The ball hits the front pad and an appeal, a loud one from the slip cordon but a tame one from Gabriel. The umpire though raises his finger. Denly after a chat with his skipper goes for the review. Replays show that the on-field call is the right one. England suddenly in a spot of bother here.

Denly has been given out LBW! Is this the start of a collapse? Wait... Denly wants a second look. There comes the signal for the review...

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. Ouch! A good in-dipper from outside off, Denly tries to keep it out somehow but misses to get hit near the box.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. BEATEN! A good delivery to end a very good over. The away-swinger this time, it is also full and outside off. Root eager to get off the mark has a go at it but gets beaten. Not the right shot to play so early in the innings.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Outside off, left alone.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Howzzat? Not given! Going down leg! But a very good delivery that. Just ahead of a length and this one comes back in a long way. Root is surprised by the movement and fails to adjust to the swing. It hits him on the pads. A huge appeal follows but the umpire shakes his head. Hawk Eye confirms it is going down leg.

Keemo Paul to Joe Root. Outside off is the first delivery to Root. He lets it be.

Joe Root is the new man in.

Keemo Paul to Rory Burns. OUT! No bat there and that is PLUMB! Excellent use of the review there by the Windies and Keemo Paul once again strikes very early in his spell. Good bowling change too. He bowls it slightly fuller and around middle, Burns looks to play across the line which brings about his down fall. The ball straightens a touch, seems to have gone past the bat and hits the front pad. An appeal follows but the umpire shakes his head. Keemo Paul convinces his captain to go for the review. Brathwaite signals the 'T'. Replays show nothing on Ultra Edge and three reds on Hawk Eye. Burns gritty knock comes to an end and both the openers back in the hut.

Review time! A huge appeal for an LBW has been turned down. Burns is the man in question and the Windies have gone for the review. There may have been an inside edge otherwise it looks close.

Keemo Paul to Rory Burns. Starts off with a length ball outside off, Burns plays inside the line and gets beaten. However, there was daylight between bat and ball there.

Keemo Paul is into the attack.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. BEAUTY! Angled into the batsman which means Denly has to play but gets it to straighten after pitching it on a length. Denly ends up playing inside the line, luckily for him, it whizzes past the outside edge.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. Outside off, left alone.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. On the shorter side outside off, Denly looks to cut but does not time it. It goes on the bounce to point. Missed out on an opportunity to hit a boundary there.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Nope! It is on the stumps but it is a little too straight. It is tucked around the corner for a single.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. The same story! The last one was outside off, he continues it with one down the leg side. Burns misses the flick. The next one is probably going to be outside off.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. On the shorter side on off, the batter stands tall and keeps it out.

Kemar Roach to Joe Denly. A good delivery to end! The big booming inswinger and it is bowled fast. Comes in a long way from outside off. Denly fails to get bat on it and is hit on the thigh pad.

Kemar Roach to Joe Denly. Defended off the front foot by the batsman presenting the full face of the bat.

Kemar Roach to Joe Denly. This was solid! On the off pole, Denly gets right behind the line and keeps it out.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Good running again! Once again it is bowled on the shorter side, Burns taps it towards covers for a quick run.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Loose shot that! Short and width on offer outside off, Burns eyes lit up as he saw the width. Goes after it but the extra bounce beats the outside edge of his bat. He has been leaving it well, got tempted there.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. Well bowled, well played and good running! On the off pole, it skids off after pitching. Denly quickly gets his bat down in time and drops it towards mid on. The batsmen cross ends.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Another wasteful ball. Outside off, Burns is not interested in playing at those.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Goes back to the line he has been bowling. Outside off, shouldered arms to.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. This is good! Goes for a yorker on off, it is jammed out.

Kemar Roach to Joe Denly. On the fuller side on off, JD works it with the angle towards wide mid on for a single. Better lines to the right-hander by Roach. Needs to bowl similarly to the left-hander.

Kemar Roach to Joe Denly. On the middle stump this time, Denly goes back and defends it onto the ground.

Kemar Roach to Joe Denly. FOUR! Edgy four! On the shorter side, Denly throws his bat at it but luckily for him he gets a fat outside edge and over the point fielder. Boundary.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Down the leg side, Burns flicks it but straight to leg gully.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. A good delivery! Short and closer to the body of Burns. He does well to evade it.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. A little too straight this time, Burns is a little late on the shot. It hits him on the thigh pad. Not started well to the left-hander here. Either too wide outside off or a little too straight.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. On the shorter side again but it is outside off, Burns has no qualms in leaving it.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. On the shorter side outside off, Burns evades it.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. FIVE OVERTHROWS! Gabriel is not happy and rightly so, there was no need of a shy there but it is the norm now-a-days. The ball comes into your hands, the players tend to have a go. Slightly shorter in length around off, Denly pushes it towards point and goes for a run. Paul picks the ball up and throws it at the non-striker's end. Misses, nobody backing up and a boundary. First runs of this session, it also brings up the 50 for England.

Shannon Gabriel to bowl from the other end.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Finally makes the batsman play! On off this time, goes straight on. Burns looks to defend but it goes off the inner half towards square leg. A maiden to begin with by Roach but not a threatening one.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Make that five leaves in a row! The line though was fuller but outside off. Burns is not tempted and he lets it go.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Fourth leave in a row! It is bowled way outside off, the batsman need not go after those.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Three leaves in a row! Roach has been a little too wide outside off right from the start of today. Once again he bowls it there and the batsman shoulders arms.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. A little outward movement but the ball is outside off, Burns leaves it alone.

We are back for the afternoon session! Rory Burns and Joe Denly will resume from where they left off before the break. The former will be on strike and he will be facing Kemar Roach. Four slips in place. Here we go...

... Day 1, Session 2 ...

'A collapse after Lunch', predicts Predicto Praky sitting over here. Well, only time will tell whether that will happen. Join us back in a while...

Roach was sensational. Gabriel was outstanding. Joseph was sharp. While Paul was nippy. But the fielding was slippery which cost the Windies a wicket or two. The drop of Jennings did not cost the home side much in terms of runs but the time he spent at the crease negated the effect of the new ball.

A session which did not have anything but had everything. Confused? Well, that has exactly what had happened here. A look at the scorecard tells you that nothing has happened - 46 runs in 26 overs. But look at the chances created, well, one would say, they should have been 5 or 6 down.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. A length ball outside off, Joe looks to defend but the ball moves away and beats the outside edge. LUNCH ON DAY 1!

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. THE BALL HAS HIT THE GLOVE BUT IT IS NOT IN CONTACT WITH THE HANDLE! What might have been a wicket for the Windies, turns out to be a lost review. A sharp short ball, around middle, Denly looks to tuck but the ball comes in with the angle and goes off something behind. Shane Dowrich dives to his left and appeals and forces Brathwaite to go for the review when his appeal is turned down. Okay. Here comes technology. Snickometer shows a spike when the ball hits the glove but it is not in contact with the bat handle! Tough luck for the home side. Jason Holder in the dressing room is not happy. They lose a review...

Is that the second wicket? Certainly Dowrich seems to think so. He alone has compelled Kraigg Brathwaite to go for the review for a caught behind. Let's see...

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Down the leg side, helped towards fine leg for a run.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. In line of the stumps, around off, solidly defended.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Denly. A mild shout for LBW. Turned down. On a good length outside off, Denly looks to tuck it to the leg side but misses and is hit high on the thighs. That explains the reason for turning the LBW shout down.

Joe Denly walks in at number 3, replacing Jennings.

Keemo Paul to Keaton Jennings. OUT! Edged and taken this time! At long last, after what seemed like endless hours, with every minute promising a wicket, the Windies have got one. Keaton Jennings was not using his feet much throughout this innings and this time, he has to use them to transport himself back to the pavilion. The change of ball does the trick. Full and outside off, there to be driven, Jennings cannot resist. He goes for the drive, after being so patient for 76 minutes. But no feet movement brings about his downfall. A thick edge is induced on the outside and it goes straight into the bread basket of Darren Bravo at first slip. No mistake made and Paul is the first to strike.

Drinks break. A pretty slow hour. Both batsmen are jittery at the crease. They have batted for 16 overs but are not looking comfortable at all. One can smell a wicket anytime the way these two are batting. Windies have bowled really well minus any luck. One catch has gone down. Another didn't carry while an lbw wasn't referred. Will the lady luck smile on them post this mini-break? Meanwhile, the umpires weren't happy with the ball and have changed it. Keemo Paul is inserted into the attack as well.

Alzarri Joseph to Rory Burns. This time it has been nicely flicked away behind square leg for a couple of runs.

Alzarri Joseph to Rory Burns. JUST SHORT! A touch short in length around leg, shaping in a bit, Burns tries to flick but it comes off the upper half of his bat and loops towards Hetmyer at deepish short leg. He gets down low but it falls in front of his outstretched left hand. Maybe, he needs to stand a step ahead at least.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Solid this time. Gets behind the line of the delivery and blocks it solidly.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Beauty from Roach! He's working in good areas now. Keeping it on and around off and getting it to either move or straighten off the seam. Jennings tries his best to nick but misses. Yes, the way he is flirting inside the line sooner rather than later he will nick one.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Four leg byes! Wrong line from the bowler, serves it down the leg side, and Burns tries to flick it. Fails and it runs away off his pads past the diving keeper for a boundary at fine leg.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Beaten all ends up! Change of angle from the bowler. Comes from over the wicket and slants across a back of a length ball around off. It leaves the left-hander after landing who is stuck inside the crease and caught pushing inside the line. Luckily doesn't edge it.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. In the channel outside off, left alone. End of an eventful over.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. EDGED! DROPPED! FOUR! All happening here. Roach bends his back to generate extra lift from the surface.

It bursts through his hands and goes behind for a boundary. Keaton riding his luck here. Can he make this innings of his count?

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. The ball is too wide on the off side for the batsman to make any contact.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Shout for an lbw! Not given by the umpire. After bowling a few deliveries wide outside off, Kemar gets a full ball to swerve in sharply off the surface. Jennings has to play at it, tries defending with a straight bat but seems to have missed. He is rapped on the pads but the umpire shakes his head after the appeal is made. Looks like an inside edge but the Ultra Edge fails to detect anything. Hmm... Hawk Eye later on reflects three reds. Windies have missed a trick here. Missing Holder already? He had been brilliant with the use of DRS.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Away swinger. Goes very full but the line is too wide again. Keaton is happy to leave it.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Keeps it full and outside off, holding its line, Jennings shoulders arms. Windies will feel he is one drive away from the pavilion.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. A straight-batted defense from the back foot to end a testing over by Gabriel.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Uppish but just short of short mid-wicket. Shannon pitches it up and around off, getting it to nip back in. Burns lunges to defend but it takes the inside half and lobs towards the close-in fielder. Doesn't carry.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Wide down the leg side, the batsman leaves it alone.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Catch it is the shout, nothing doing. Gabriel gets a good length ball to jag back into the batsman. Burns tries to flick but misses and it loops in the air off his thigh pad. The short leg catches it and then has a shy at the striker's end. Misses. No edge there so the shout of a catch it from the bowler was more of a reaction.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Digs in a short ball around off, Rory drops his wrists and lets it through to Dowrich.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Full and angling into the batsman, skidding off the surface, Rory tries flicking but misses and it goes off his pads to deepish short leg.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Away shape this time. The line though is outside off and Keaton is not playing at anything not targeted at the stumps.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. A tempter outside off, there to be driven but Keaton doesn't fall for it. Anyway, his footwork isn't great so far and going for any kind of drive can prove to be fatal.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Once again Roach is keeping it too wide to trouble the batsman.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Wide outside off stump, the batsman leaves it alone.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Wide! Really a wild delivery. Drops it on a length way wide outside off and then it further moves away. Jennings has an easy leave and the umpire is forced to stretch his arms.

Kemar Roach to Keaton Jennings. Ouch! That must have hurt! Not showing much pain though, Keaton. Back of a length delivery landing outside off at 130 kph. It jags back in sharply as Jennings decides to make a leave. It hits him flush on the box.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Fine delivery. Fuller and around off, straightening a bit after landing, Keaton tries defending with a straight bat but it goes off the outer half to cover-point. A single taken, first off Roach's bowling this morning.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Angling down the leg side, nudged fine down the leg side for a run.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Howzaat, screams my colleague over here! Nothing from the bowler. Nothing from the keeper. And nothing from the umpire obviously. A delivery bowled at 147 kph, slanting down from a length, Burns is late in putting his bat to it and takes a blow on his pads. Easily going down, my colleague maybe didn't watch it closely. Concentrate.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Sharp movement back into the batsman, hurrying into the batsman, Burns tries to play it across the line but misses. It goes on to hit him near the groin area.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Wide outside off stump, the batsman leaves it alone.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Has left the balls well so far! A length delivery just outside off and coming back in a bit with the angle, Rory covers his stumps and shoulders arms.

Wait is over! Sun is shining now. The covers are off and the players are returning on the field. Shannon Gabriel to finish his over...

Update 1024 local - It's turned very dark out there! Wait on, the umpires get together and have called for the covers. It's not raining yet and this seems like a precautionary step. And as I'm typing... it has started to RAIN! Strong wind is blowing across the stadium and let's hope it will take away all the angry-looking clouds. Currently, the players are back in the hut. Stay tuned for latest updates...

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Angles in a full ball on middle, Burns defends it right in front of his pads.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Rory has played that off the front foot and into the ground.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. The line is straight this time, Burns gets behind the delivery and blocks it towards mid-wicket.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Slants this one down the leg side, Burns fails to flick and is hit on the pads. Beaten in pace, 147 kph it was.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Burns is off the mark with a couple. It's on his pads and he clips it behind square leg. Not too much movement as of now. Maybe, the bowlers are only getting warmed up.

Shannon Gabriel to Rory Burns. Angles in a good length ball on off, Burns defends it off his back foot.

Shannon Gabriel to Keaton Jennings. An overpitched delivery on off, angling in towards middle, Jennings flicks it through mid-wicket and takes just a run. Poor running.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Miles outside off again, let through once more.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Five leaves in a row outside off. Rory Burns showing good patience.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Once again it's served in the channel outside off, on a good length, Rory is looking quite assured in leaving those.

Kemar Roach to Rory Burns. Starts with a length delivery from 'round the wicket. There is a hint of inward shape after it lands outside off and Burns makes a watchful leave.

Time for the national anthems then. First England's, followed by the hosts'. Time now for the game to begin. Kemar Roach to start off proceedings. Rory Burns and Keaton Jennings will open the innings for the Windies. Burns to face. Here we go!

Joe Root says that he probably would have batted first and now sees this as a big opportunity to get a good score with the bat. On the team news, informs that Sam Curran has been left out. Adds that Keaton Jennings comes back at the top of the order to lend some balance to the team. On Mark Wood's inclusion, Root says that he is someone who can be hostile at times and in the last few days, he has shown great pace and rhythm, which has strengthened his case. Does not feel that there is any confusion within the team, and adds that everyone is pretty sure about their roles.

Kraigg Brathwaite says that it is one of the better pitches in the Caribbean and is looking forward to make use of the early morning moisture. Informs that Keemo Paul is a straight swap for Jason Holder, with like-to-like qualities. Stresses that the Windies are keen to win 3-0 and will not let the intensity drop.

TOSS - Time for the spin of the coin. The Windies' captain for this game, Kraigg Brathwaite, tosses the coin up in the air. TAILS is the call from Joe Root, but HEADS IT IS. WINDIES ELECT TO BOWL FIRST.

PITCH REPORT - Daren Ganga has a look at the pitch and informs us that the average first innings score at this venue is just 329. Sees plenty of grass and adds further that in the last 6 games, 4 have produced results. Reckons that fast bowlers will receive plenty of help from this track, with batting proving to be a challenge. Finishes by saying that toss may not be too much of a factor.

WEATHER - Rain. Forecast for all 5 days. But that is future tense. As far as present tense is concerned, it is bright and crystal clear with the sun shining beamingly. I am sure no one will mind if the forecast is wrong, would any?

What is life without ifs or buts? Same goes to Windies and cricket. They look poised to make a brownwash. But can they? They have not won three Tests in a row since 2012-13 (when they beat New Zealand, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe for six consecutive victories). Their last whitewash in a series of three matches or more came against England in 1985-86. Hmmm...

Sammy - the name itself inspires the Windies. Won two WT20 titles under him. It was at this very venue that Shannon Gabriel claimed a 13-wicket haul, last year. Add to it, England have never played a Test here. Their last visit came in 2010, when they beat Sri Lanka in the semi-final of the World T20. All the factors point to a 3-0 possibility, don't they?

A brownwash - ever heard of this term? Not that many times, because probably it rarely comes into play. But here we are, in 2019, under an inspired Jason Holder, Windies stand a brilliant chance of beating England 3-0. Only issue for them is that they are without skipper Holder - their leading run-getter in this series. Will it motivate them even more or will that give a chance for Ashes hopefuls in the English side? Either ways, we hope that we are not robbed off an entertaining game. Hello and a warm welcome to the third and final Test between Windies and England at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet in St. Lucia.

England now will look to build on this lead and with a lot of time left in the game, they will now look to bat the Windies out of this game. The hosts on the other hand, need to pick wickets and quickly as one would believe batting 4th on this wicket will not be easy. Is there another fightback in store for us or will England continue their domination? Stay tuned to find out.

Dowrich and Roach did try to fight back with a frustrating 41-run stand for England but once the former fell, the lower-order did not contribute a lot, giving England a huge lead of 123.

After being bundled out for 277 earlier today, the visitors did not have the best of times with the new ball. The Windies openers looked at ease and added 57 for the first wicket. However, a lapse in concentration for Brathwaite began the procession. Campbell fell on the very next ball and after that Wood ran through the middle order. From 57 for 2, Windies were staring down the barrel at 104 for 7.

End of an excellent performance by England. Actually by Mark Wood and Moeen Ali I should write. It is the former who leads them off the field as he bags a fifer, his first in Tests and that too on return. A huge round of applause for him and he deserves every bit of it.

Mark Wood to Shannon Gabriel. OUT! BOWLED! Wood wins the race of the fifers! Full and straight, perfect delivery to a tail-ender, Gabriel swings and misses. The ball hits the stumps and ENGLAND HAVE A LEAD OF 123.

Mark Wood to Shannon Gabriel. FOUR! Gabriel is not going to die wondering. Short and wide outside off, slapped through point for a boundary.

Moeen Ali to Kemar Roach. Flatter and outside off, Roach plays it with the angle through point for a couple.

Shannon Gabriel is the next man in.

Moeen Ali to Alzarri Joseph. OUT! In the air... what a catch. Ho ho ho, that is a screamer there. Ali tosses this up around off, Joseph goes for the slog but ends up playing it against the angle. He ends up getting it off the outer half. It goes high in the air towards mid off. The batter though would feel, he might just get away with this one. Broad however, runs backwards and then sticks his right hand out and the ball sticks. He then tumbles over and gets up with a big smile. He is now mobbed by his teammates. 4th for Moeen Ali and they are now one wicket away from wrapping this innings.

Moeen Ali to Alzarri Joseph. Angles this away from off, Joseph looks to defend but gets beaten.

Moeen Ali to Kemar Roach. Floated up on off, it is stroked down to long off for a single.

Stuart Broad to Alzarri Joseph. SAFE. Got to say, not the best piece of technique from Bairstow but that is how modern keepers do it. The ancient technique teaches you to collect the ball behind the stumps but not in this age. Full and around middle, Joseph swings hard but the ball swings in and goes off the inner half of the bat towards fine leg. The batsmen return for the second and the throw is a good one too. But Bairstow collects it in front of the stumps, then turns around and whips the bails off. It is referred upstairs and replays show that the extra second taken by Bairstow has given Alzarri enough time to make it in. Had Bairstow stayed behind the stumps, waited for the throw to come and then disturbed the stumps in front of him, he might have affected the run out.

RUN OUT APPEAL! Has Alzarri made it back in time? Or has Bairstow's poor technique cost England?

Stuart Broad to Alzarri Joseph. Outside off, another play and a miss.

Stuart Broad to Alzarri Joseph. On a good length around middle, watchfully defended.

Stuart Broad to Shane Dowrich. OUT! Superb review from Broad and England and Dowrich is adjudged LBW! First wicket for Broady. It is landed on a good length around off and Dowrich gets across to defend. But this does not come in with the angle. Instead it straightens slightly after pitching and squares Shane up as he looks to defend. Is hit on the pads and Broad appeals but the umpire is unmoved. Broad feels this is out and convinces Root to go upstairs. Root does so and lo! Hawk Eye shows it to be dead plumb! An enterprising stand of 41 comes to a close. Fine knock from Dowrich. Windies trail by 132 now.

Stuart Broad is adamant this is out LBW. Joe Root gives his consent for the review. Where is the impact? That is the key question. Ian Bishop whispers 'NOT OUT', in the commentary box.

Stuart Broad to Shane Dowrich. FOUR! That is wonderfully timed. Just a flick from Dowrich! A length ball, a bit too straight, Shane gets across his stumps and with efficient wristwork, nudges it behind square leg. Fine leg has no chance. The stand moves to 41 from 64 balls.

Moeen Ali to Kemar Roach. FOUR! Outside off, Roach slashes at it, it goes off the outer half through backward point. Stokes gives it a chase but he had no chance there. Frustrating runs these for England. Windies though would hope the two can continue.

Moeen Ali to Shane Dowrich. Flatter and on middle, it is punched back to the bowler.

Moeen Ali to Shane Dowrich. NOT OUT! Dowrich's foot is down! Good work though by Bairstow. This is bowled flatter and outside off, Dowrich first thinks of cutting it but then bails out of the shot. He then seems to have lifted his foot and Bairstow whips the bails off and appeals. The umpire takes it upstairs. The third umpire takes a look at quite a few replays from different angles. In one angle it shows seems that the foot is off when the bails come off but there is nothing conclusive. Hence, it is ruled in favour of the batsman.

A huge appeal for a stumping has been referred upstairs. Dowrich is the man in question. The English players do not seem that excited.

Moeen Ali to Shane Dowrich. Floated up on off, blocked.

Stuart Broad to Kemar Roach. Lovely delivery! Angles it into the batsman and gets it to leave him late. Beats the outside edge of Roach's bat.

Stuart Broad to Kemar Roach. FIVE WIDES! Where has that hit? That has exploded. Broad looks at the spot where the ball landed and then smiles.

No one in the deep and it races away. 100 up for the Windies but they have lost 6 wickets. They trail by another 174.

We are back for the final session. Once again we are in for a long one as there are around 42 overs to go. Shane Dowrich will join Darren Bravo in the middle. Mark Wood has five balls to go. Here we go...

... Day 2, Session 3 ...

England are red-hot right now. Just Shane Dowrich to come in the form of a proper recognized batsman. After that, it is just the bowlers. Boy, do we daresay that Keaton Jennings and Rory Burns could be batting for the second time in 2 days. Join us back at 3 pm (1900 GMT). Nearly 42 overs left, so plenty of time for more wickets!

Unlike the Windies, the new ball could not quite work for England. They were getting very desperate and Campbell's counter-attack led to more frustration. Then, that masterstroke from Root to get Moeen Ali paid rich dividends. At 57/0, things looking down and out, and how tables have turned. First Moeen struck twice in an over and then Wood struck thrice in the span of 15 balls to leave Windies reeling.

15 wickets have fallen in this match now, in 5 sessions. 11 of those have come today itself. This Test has suddenly kicked up alive. Who says that 277 is not competitive? They might have to eat their words!

Wow-a-wow-a-wow. 5 wickets for 17 runs in 53 balls. Moeen Ali. Mark Wood. Enough said.

Mark Wood to Shimron Hetmyer. OUT! Dropped, no caught! Wood has another one and Windies have half their side back in the hut. Hetmyer falls in the last over before Tea. Once again the pace and the zip off the surface proves to be a Windies batsman's downfall. It is slightly short and outside off, Hetmyer who was beaten a couple of times before this, finally edges one as he again hangs his bat out again. The ball takes a fat outside edge and goes to Root at first slip. He takes it on the second attempt. Hetmyer starts walking back but then is asked to wait as they want to check for the no ball. Replay shows it is fine. Hetmyer has to continue his walk back and he is followed by the England players as it is TEA ON DAY 2!

Mark Wood to Roston Chase. OUT! Two-in-two for Wood! Why was he held back for 21 overs? His sheer pace is doing the trick for England. Roston chase bags a golden duck. Pace and bounce here gets the better of the tall batsman. It is on off and it skids through. Chase tries to defend but the ball flies off the outside edge and goes towards fourth slip. Burns takes a sharp catch. Windies are 59 for 4 from 57 for 0. They trail by 218 more.

Roston Chase is the new man in.

Mark Wood to Shai Hope. OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Wood strikes gold straightaway! Just the start he would have wanted on his comeback. Bowls it full and around off, Hope looks to drive but ends up playing inside the line. The ball flies of the outside edge and towards gully. Burns takes it. Wood already seems to make a difference here. The X-factor England were missing seems to be visible here in Wood's first five balls. Windies now in big trouble here.

James Anderson to Darren Bravo. Shortish and on the body of the batsman, Bravo looks to nudge but gets hit on the glove. He has taken the glove off. Seems to be in some pain. That will sting.

Darren Bravo walks in at number 4, replacing Campbell, to face the hat-trick ball.

Moeen Ali to John Campbell. OUT! Two in two for England! And it is not Broad. Not Anderson. But Moeen. Out of nowhere. Both openers dismissed in quick succession. Pretty straight ball, fuller in length, Campbell comes forward and plays all around it, looking to flick. Misses and that looks plumb. Umpire Dharmasena thinks long and hard and then raises his finger! Campbell has a chat with Hope and takes the review. Well, replays suggest that it might be a bad call. Because one could see the leg stump. And Hawk Eye does not justify his call either. Crashing into leg. Wicket and review, both lost. The match kicks into life again. All of a sudden, Holder-less Windies trail by 220 runs with 8 wickets in hand.

Gone next ball! However, Campbell has requested for a review on the LBW...

Shai Hope walks in at number 3, replacing Brathwaite.

Moeen Ali to Kraigg Brathwaite. OUT! Caught! A wicket out of the blue! What a wonderful field placement. Just one man out in the deep on the leg side. And Brathwaite exhibits his fielding coaching skills to perfection. Finds that man and hands him some catching practice. Only James Anderson was stationed in the deep - at widish long on, almost near mid-wicket. Brathwaite comes down the track and looks to go straight. However, with the ball drifting, the bat turns in his hand and goes towards Anderson. He comes running in a few paces and takes it comfortably. The 57-run stand is broken at last.

James Anderson to John Campbell. Another decent delivery! However, Anderson is bowling a little short here. Not short actually but shorter then he should bowl.

Root wanted to go for the review but Anderson was not sure where it pitched. Almost, at the last moment, Joe signalled for the review but umpire Dharmasena informed him that he was timed out. Meanwhile, a leg bye has been stolen too. What an over!

Another LBW review! This time by England! This looks not out now. Where did it pitch?

James Anderson to John Campbell. NOT OUT! It is going over! Did not see that coming, however, excellent use of the review there. A full delivery and on middle, it comes back in. Campbell looks to work it across the line but misses. It hits his front pad. An appeal follows and the umpire raises the finger after a thought. Campbell reviews.

Review time! Campbell has been adjudged LBW. He ahs taken the review. Looks out.

Squares Brathwaite up as he tries to defend. The ball goes off the outer half towards point. Brathwaite takes a few steps ahead. John thinking there is a run is quick off his blocks. Brathwaite though sends him back. Trying to turn back, John slips. He has no chance to make it back in now as the fielder has the ball in his hands. Joe has a shy but luckily for Campbell he misses.

James Anderson to continue from the other end.

... Day 2, Session 2 ...

Safely negotiated. A tricky period of 18 balls or 10 minutes - whichever way you look at it. There was swing and seam movement but Brathwaite and Campbell have done well to negotiate both. Plenty still there in the pitch but the Windies will be happy that they are getting the best part of the day to bat on. Join us back at 12.40 pm local (1640 GMT).

James Anderson to Kraigg Brathwaite. Full and just outside off, defended back to the bowler. LUNCH ON DAY 2, WINDIES TRAIL BY 275!

James Anderson to Kraigg Brathwaite. The ball is too wide on the off side for the batsman to make any contact.

James Anderson to Kraigg Brathwaite. Around middle, played straight to short mid-wicket.

In Anderson's previous over, on the last ball, a bit of an argument took place. Root wanted Mark Wood at fine leg to go squarer while Jimmy wanted him to be finer. Poor Wood, was playing musical chairs from left to right till Anderson was let known who is the boss.

Stuart Broad to John Campbell. Again, the same reaction from John to a similar ball.

Stuart Broad to John Campbell. Outside off, Campbell takes his bat away from the line.

Stuart Broad to John Campbell. That one thing which Keaton Jennings has done superbly throughout the tour. FIELDING AT SHORT LEG. He was excellent in the first Test, did nicely when he came in as a substitute in the last and here too, has started well. A length ball, around off, coming in with the angle, JC works it through square leg but Jennings at short leg dives to his right to make a wonderful stop.

James Anderson to Kraigg Brathwaite. Around middle, tucked straight to square leg.

Earlier on, a ton from Root and 50s from Denly and Buttler ensured England can end the Test tour on a high. Windies will have to really bat well and show some composure. They cannot afford to think of a victory as that is farfetched. Let's see how the English pacers go about their bowling. Join us in a while.

Rather quickly than one would have expected but the declaration has been called. The intent was there from the start as Stokes was leading the charge. He will be stranded on 48* but that won't matter much. The visitors have batted for just 5.2 overs in the morning and set the Windies a target of 485.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Root. OUT! End of an excellent innings from England's captain. Shannon Gabriel's prayers have been answered. It was a low full toss on middle, Joe looks to flick it but the bat turns in his hands. The ball goes uppishly to mid-wicket. Shimron Hetmyer puts in a dive towards his front and catches it. Surprisingly, with Root's departure, England have declared their innings at 361/5. Windies will need 485 runs to make it 3-0.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. On the hips, Ben flicks it to square leg and takes a quick single.

Alzarri Joseph to Joe Root. Good running. Joe just flicks this with soft hands through mid-wicket and comes back for the second.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Root. FOUR! 350 comes up for England! It was on off and fullish, Joe drives it past covers and gets a boundary. Magnificent shot from the skipper.

Kemar Roach to Ben Stokes. FOUR BYES! Short all down the leg side, Stokes looks to pull but is too far for him. The keeper dives but cannot reach to it. The ball runs to the fine leg boundary.

We are ready to begin Day 4. The players and the umpires are out to take center stage. Kemar Roach will bowl the first over while Root and Stokes will continue from where they left.

Darren Ganga with the Pitch Report. He starts off by saying that he expects some showers in the last two days. As for the surface, he feels that the lateral movement has increased day by day and with some variable bounce. Michael Atherton alongside him feels that the second new ball was a key and there was spice and pace still left on the wicket. He reckons that the game situation did not allow them to have a true indication of the wicket and he expects the story to be different when a full strength England comes out to bowl unlike the Windies bowling which was depleted due to injuries.

The only question that everyone wants the answer to is, when will England declare? They have managed to swell the lead to 448 and are comfortably in the driver's seat. One would feel that they will bat for an hour or so and then put the hosts to bat, keeping weather in mind. For the Caribbeans, they will hope to get a couple of wickets early and then try to wrap up the English lower order. However, seeing the way they batted in the first innings, things don't look pretty for them. Let's wait and see what this Test has in store for us.

... Day 4, Session 1 ...

No juice? Does that mean Windies can draw this Test? Well, anything is possible in cricket. But it will require a huge amount of determination and mental strength to do that. First, the Windies will have to wait for some more time for England to declare - at least an hour on Tuesday and then go about trying to bat out more than 5 sessions. Inconsistent bounce has started to appear and Day 4 might see the most of that. Join us at 10 am local (1400 GMT) on Tuesday, February 12, 2019, for all the action. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!

Stretching exercises going on for the Windies. They have toiled, toiled and toiled hard, being a bowler down, with Keemo Paul hurting his hamstring very early in the day. Gabriel and Roach bowled their hearts out but this pitch does not have as much juice in it now as it had yesterday.

A boring but proper day of Test match cricket. The fielding team strikes first ball, then meanders along, allowing the batsmen to settle and then the batters bed in. Burns, Jennings and Denly missed out on big knocks but not Root. He ensured that he stayed till the end of the day, forging a partnership with Buttler and then with Stokes, reaching that elusive hundred. Buttler played well and was looking good for his own century but got a jaffa from Roach - a rarity the whole day.

The Windies players get across and shake hands with Joe Root, acknowledging his effort - one of pure class. He has batted for a major part of the day and one would admit, taken the game beyond Windies' reach.

Has been off colour of late, losing his run-scoring hunger. For the record - 16TH TEST TON FOR ROOT! His third consecutive century after going past 50. Also, a hat-trick of tons in a dead rubber Test. 50-run stand comes up as well.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. This is terrific bowling. Shannon is still bowling with a lot of venom.

Stokes is down on his haunches and Gabriel like an angry uncle once again shoots some words at him. Root is smiling, like he always does. Frustration writ large on Shannon's face. Has really tried hard today without much success.

News filters in that both Darren Bravo and Keemo Paul are in the hospital, for scans regarding their respective injuries. The former will certainly be missed in the days to come if the Windies are to make a fist of this game.

Shannon Gabriel to Ben Stokes. Digs in a short ball on middle, Stokes plays a mistimed pull shot in front of square leg and it drops in no man's land in the deep. They take a couple. 300 up for England and the Barmy Army is on its feet.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Root. Funny! Good length delivery on middle and leg, Root tickles it off his pads and it races through mid-wicket. Warrican (sub) chases it and then puts in a dive near the rope. However, he himself goes beyond the rope while the ball is still to roll towards the boundary line. Warrican then recovers and jumps out to stop the ball. Then he gets up, slips a bit before picking it up and releasing the ball to the keeper. The batsmen have run all four. Quite comical. The substitute seems under-cooked for this format. We have seen him struggling in the field quite a few times now. Hearing that it's a FOUR!

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Root. Full and wide outside off, the skipper reaches out to drive but misses again.

Shannon Gabriel to Joe Root. Pull and a miss. Is that nervous 80-90s tag worrying Root? He is smiling but that seems to be a nervous one. Is the declaration round the corner? Has he been given a definite time before which the century needs to be made? But then, isn't he the captain and can decide for himself? The last few minutes have seen some atrocious shots, as if to desperately get to that century as quickly as he can. The length was not there for the pull but still Joe went for it. The ball just missed the inside edge and beat the off stump.

A bit of a delay. Seems like Stokes has just realized that he was worn different shoes on each foot. The umpires wisely have called for DRINKS. Around 19 overs left in the day. The focus will mainly be on whether Root can get to a century and even if he does, don't think the declaration will come out immediately. Maybe, some time after Drinks in the first session or second session tomorrow.
