Root hits ODI career-best 166 not out to steer England to victory - report
Hope's 78 off 66 balls helps West Indies reach 308 all out
England drop four chances in field and miss two run-outs
England go 2-0 up in series with one to go
Root 86, Jacks 26

Four more to Joe Root as he advances to slice a drive through backward point.
Root 81, Jacks 24
Joe Root takes four on the sweep now to move into the eighties. This partnership is keeping them in the game although Root is annoyed not to take a single from the final ball as he swishes his bat like a man who has just missed his bus to the nets.

That's what Jacks has to do. Just bat and capitalise on the bad balls.
Will Jacks slams another short ball from Gudakesh Motie to the mid-wicket boundary.

It's easy to panic and think you've got to score, and then you lose a wicket and the team is in trouble.
Target 309
Joe Root defends the final ball of a good over from Jayden Seales which costs only two singles.
Simon Mann
BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
This is a great opportunity for Jacks to produce something eye-catching.
Will Jacks is one of the more elegant of the modern day batters who can smash it in T20 cricket. He has looked steady here.
Roland Butcher
Former England batter on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
West Indies are ahead at this stage but as long as Joe Root is there then England are still in it.
If England can get to 40 overs as it is then it's game on.
Need 142 runs to win from 120 balls
This isn't too different to the situation England found themselves in during the Champions Trophy against Afghanistan. Joe Root attempted to steer his side from a perilous position and scored a century before falling with the finish line in sight.
England lost that game and Root was furious with himself. How he'd love to win the game this time.
Henry Moeran
Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
That's driven elegantly by Joe Root. Punched down the ground for four.
Terrific batting from him.
Target 309
Is there anything better than a Joe Root on-drive? It just makes me feel warm inside. There can't be many that play the shot better.
A boundary with that shot and some smart running helps England take nine from Seales' comeback over.

This is a game that West Indies now have in their control.
England need 156 more runs to win
Motie has been struggling for form in ODIs but responds well here with four dots to follow the early boundary.
Jayden Seales is back at the other end. He dismissed Jamie Smith at the very start of this chase.
England lose openers Smith and Duckett for ducks in first two overs
Motie's first delivery is far too short and Will Jacks slaps it for four.

For now Surrey's Will Jacks, who showed in this year's IPL he can biff it as far as most, looks happy to nudge his way into a rhythm alongside the master of such methods in Root - pretty wise I'd say.
Left-arm spinner Gudakesh Motie is coming on for the first time today.

Will Jacks, unconvincing at best; this is your time to justify your place.
Martin, Derby
Target 309
Will Jacks is obviously a perfectly capable batter. He was opening for England against West Indies last year so has the ability to put on a big stand with Joe Root.
This is the wicket that brought Jacks to the crease.
Bethell struck lbw off spinner Chase
Thank you.
Good game to win from here...
