    That's your lot for today - and for this Test match after a brilliant England bowling effort in the evening session.

    Young Shoaib Bashir was the star as he claimed his third Test five-for and first in England, in the first home Test he's bowled in, to bowl the hosts to a series-clinching win.

    That ensured West Indies came up a long way short after hundreds from Harry Brook and Joe Root left them needing 385 to win.

    You can read Stephan Shemilt's report from the fourth and final day at Trent Bridge here, while Today at the Test is on BBC Two and iPlayer right now.

    We'll be back on Friday for the third Test at Edgbaston. Be sure to join us then.

    Once Brook was dismissed, it was over to Joe Root and the former England skipper coolly worked his way to yet another hundred.

    Just the 32 in Test now for the 33-year-old and he's up to eighth on the list of all-time Test run-scorers with Brian Lara in seventh now just 13 runs ahead of him...

    Going back to the start of the day and it was two Yorkshireman tasked with growing England's lead to a match-winning total.

    They did just that with Harry Brook reaching his fifth Test century - and first on home soil - before lunch...

    A word, too, for Mark Wood. The England fast bowler was fantastic but did not get the figures to show for it across the match.

    He had to settle for a wicket in each innings but his vicious bouncer to dismiss Kevin Sinclair summed up what he brought throughout the game.

    Another England quick, Gus Atkinson, then made absolutely sure of the victory for England with two wickets in three balls: Josh Da Silva lbw before Alzarri Joseph was castled.

    It was a special performance from Shoaib Bashir. Having removed West Indies' hundred-maker from the first innings, Kavem Hodge, he soon got rid of his fellow Dominican Alick Athanaze.

    The left-hander scored 82 in the first innings but made just one in the second after edging a lovely turning delivery to Joe Root at slip.

    What England have done, Rob Key and Luke Wright are almost ripping up the traditions and history of what we've usually done with selection.

    You usually have to played two or three years in county cricket, especially bowlers. Not many have been picked very young, particularly spinners.

    They've seen a kid in Bashir, who trialled at so many clubs before Somerset took a chance on him, and very quickly he's been pushed into the England side because they've seen the skill, the ceiling of what he can get to and I can't imagine many spinners have got three five-fors in the space of five Tests.

    In the first innings I wasn't sure but I saw straightaway in the second innings the skill element after the confidence of taking a wicket early.

    He bowled the under-spinner that offered a bit of shape away from the right-hander, he's got the drift, a quicker ball. He's a great selection.

  8. 'Bashir's confidence is great'published at 19:03 British Summer Time 21 July

    Man of the match Ollie Pope talking to BBC Test Match Special: "I am happy with how I played but more important is the win and the extra day off is always handy."

    Could you see the collapse coming: "There was a chance. The ball was standing up a little bit and shooting up a little too. It was never going to be easy with reverse swing that Woody and Atkinson were getting too. Bash [Shoaib Bashir] bowled beautifully, looked like taking a wicket from the first ball he bowled, credit to him.

    "Bash has got so much confidence but in a great way. He's got a lot more confidence than I had at that stage. Credit to him to how he bowled, he barely bowled a bad ball in either innings."

    On being at short leg during Mark Wood's spell: "Woody bowled out of his skin, bowled the speed of light. Credit to how Hodge went about his innings. It was a serious bit of bowling that he got through. Woody didn't quite get the results he deserved this week. There isn't too much you have to say when you're bowling 96mph! They really got stuck into the battle, fair play to them for their innings. When you see it hitting the splice of the ba and a few of the body, it was just lightning. The way he's managing his body at the moment is awesome."

    On his form: "I am feeling good at the moment. I've been working hard on my body and the rewards keep coming."

    On Jamie Smith: "Smudge has kept beautifully. Hasn't done a great deal, but he's got amazing hands and he's been moving well. Credit to him for how he's come in. It's been great to see."

    The ceiling for Bashir is so high. You've got to bowl to learn your craft, but what we're seeing is this bloke is learning on the job and still delivering the goods. He's nowhere near the finished article, and what will be funny is in ten years time, if he's still playing, he'll look back and think 'cor, I wasn't very good then.' And yet he's still doing the job for England.

    I'm so impressed with the difference he bowled this innings, with tact, he got that drift. The ball he ragged in between Jason Holder when he was making the drive, he did him in the flight, he's got plenty of revs on it. Fair play to him, fair play to England to pick him, he had to go out on loan from Somerset to go to Worcester - it seems madness - and he's got the attitude and the ability to handle the pressure out in the middle.

  11. 'Shoaib showed his class'published at 18:55 British Summer Time 21 July

    England captain Ben Stokes, speaking to BBC Test Match Special: "I didn't see it happening that quickly after the opening partnership, I thought they played well. You could see at the end of our innings the wicket started misbehaving more than it did in the first three days, a couple were bouncing and then keeping low. I thought the way we fought back after that first wicket was impressive. I thought Bashir getting five wickets on a wicket that didn't really do that much, I thought he showed his class and his ability to be able to change his pace and undercut the ball, the wicket of Jason Holder showed that, he showed the world what he's got.

    "It was a great opportunity for the likes of Gus and Bash to come out and bowl a side out. I thought Gus came back really nicely with the reverse swinging ball, showed another side to his game that he's got.

    "I thought Mark Wood didn't get the rewards that deserved. It was remarkable to see and that is why we value him so highly. I think he bowled brilliantly in partnership, it's not always about the guys who take wickets. This was a good sign that you can do it in the bowling side of the game too.

    "It has been a great start after a long break between Test series. I think we've played some good cricket but I still think we can get better. I'm really looking forward to the next four matches."

    Bashir taking a five-for with no one creating foot holes is exceptional.

  13. 'A tough loss'published at 18:51 British Summer Time 21 July

    West Indies captain Kraigg Brathwaite, speaking to BBC Test Match Special: "It's a tough loss, we pretty much lost 10 wickets in a session. It's not good enough.

    "It was obviously better than Lord's but with the ball we weren't as consistent as we should have been. With the bat, we were good in the first innings but not in the second.

    "To win a Test match you've got to be doing everything good, to be honest."

    On Hodge and Athanaze in first innings: "They played well, it was good to see. They're good friends and I was happy for them. That's history now and we have to continue to the third Test."

    On quick turnaround to third Test: "We're accustomed to three days between Test matches, you just have to get your mind back in the right place. That's the most important and to become mentally tough again."

  14. 'Still trying to soak everything in'published at 18:48 British Summer Time 21 July

    England spinner Shoaib Bashir, speaking to BBC Test Match Special: "It was special. First time I've bowled in England for England, special to finish it off in a session. It's the first time I've been to Trent Bridge.

    "I watched Sinclair bowl, he wasn't getting much spin, so I wasn't hopeful. But things can happen quite quickly in cricket.

    "I'm the youngest in the group, everyone gets around me. I work closely with Jeetan Patel, he gives me lots of tips to bowl on different wickets. First innings I wasn't as consistent as I could have been, in the second innings it was nice to cash in.

    "Still trying to soak everything in, that innings went so quickly."

    When asked about his height: "I'm 6'4 - still growing!"

    How quickly things can change.

    West Indies were 61-0 at drinks. That quickly became 75-4 after four wickets in four overs.

    Chris Woakes made the breakthrough as he removed Mikyle Louis, Shoaib Bashir then had Kirk McKenzie caught before Woakes got the crucial scalp of Kraigg Brathwaite.

    It was then back over to Bashir, who trapped West Indies first-innings centurion Kavem Hodge plumb lbw...

    When two wickets went down quickly you sensed the air going out of the West Indies innings.

    When Jason Holder decided to go really hard, really early, it raised a few eyebrows and you thought 'hold on a minute...'.

    17 wickets in a day…do you report the pitch for this?😂 Great game and good performance by Bashir.

  18. How's stat?!published at 18:36 British Summer Time 21 July

    Andy Zaltzman
    Statistician on Test Match Special

    Seven wickets for Shoaib Bashir at Trent Bridge. The last four occasions that spinners have taken seven or wickets here: Muralitharan, 11 in 2006, Shane Warne, eight in 2005 and 2001, and seven in 1997. So Bashir's following in those footsteps. Before that, Nick Cook for England, nine against New Zealand in 1983. It's a rare achievement.

    It's Bashir's third five-wicket haul in just his fifth Test. He's now taken 24 wickets, which is one of the highest counts for an England spinner after the Second World War. Only Graeme Swann with 27 and Nick Cook with 34 in their first five Tests have taken more, and Bashir didn't bowl in one of those five, didn't get a bowl at Lord's.

    Bashir bowled really well. That wasn't a five-fer mopping up the tail, even though he got a couple of tail-enders. The top-order, he caused trouble for everyone who faced him today and I thought he bowled superbly well.

    He changed his line from the first innings when he bowled a bit straighter, he bowled in that channel, he bowled absolutely brilliantly, so he should be very, very proud. And to do it in the first Test match where he's bowled in England, that's how inexperienced he is - so hats off, well done.

    Shoaib Bashir has taken 5-41! He's getting a huge hug from his captain Ben Stokes. That's a very promising sign, we know Pope, Brook, Atkinson.

    But Bashir has come in, talk about leapfrogging Leach, and taken five wickets in the fourth innings of a Test match, which is basically what you employ a spinner for.
