Mark Wood finally bagged Shamar Joseph to end the innings.

It was a first wicket for the England pace tyro, who might have expected to have earned a greater reward for his efforts over the last four sessions.

Chris Woakes then removed Alzarri Joseph and Jayden Seales, meaning England needed only one wicket to finish off the tourists.

But Joshua Da Silva pushed on for the West Indies alongside number eleven Shamar Joseph, putting on 71 for the final wicket to give the West Indies a first innings lead of 41.

Right then, to quote the Monty Python major, enough of that - it's silly.

Let's take a look at some of the highlights from the morning session.

It didn't start so badly for England, with Jason Holder and Kevin Sinclair removed early on.

Actually, hasn't the mascot race at the T20 Blast finals day grown a little tired?

Forget the office, I'll hurtle around the Edgbaston outfield chased by a thousand hounds.

Might be a bit bleak when they catch me, but they can put some sawdust down where it happened and crack on.

Thanks Sam.

That greyhound incident was when I was a teen, mind.

But I am now a man in my pomp, for this morning at parkrun I recorded my second fastest time in the mile.

Bring your dogs to my office, I will race them all.

Right then, after an extended and leisurely morning in which he informed us that he was once "chased down and felled by a greyhound", it is time for Mike Peter to spring into action.

He's here to take you through the afternoon session and the start of England's second innings.

That will be lunch. Slightly later than scheduled.

England were very good in that session, right up until the moment that they most certainly weren't.

Credit to West Indies, and in particularly Josh Da Silva and Shamar Joseph this morning. They've taken the tourists to a 41-run lead on first innings.

With cloud overhead, they can really ramp up the pressure on Ben Stokes' side this afternoon.

Josh Da Silva can't believe it.

The innings finally come to an end.

Mark Wood is back and Shamar Joseph is attempting to send every ball out of the ground - but getting nowhere close!

An inside edge race away for four but two horrible plays and misses leave Wood staggered that he hasn't knocked all three stumps out of the ground.

Josh Da Silva is in disbelief at the other end, he's 18 runs away from a century...

That's the West Indies first 450 score since 2014 against Bangladesh in Kingston.

This has been high quality, West Indies have come out today and put pressure onto England.

Sensational batting.

England have been wheel-less for quite some time now...

This is West Indies' highest total in England since 1995, when Brian Lara and Carl Hooper made hundreds as part of 692-8 declared at The Oval.

West Indies are really cashing in now.

Stokes and England really look at a loss, the lead just keeps edging upwards.

Lead by 37

The 50 partnership comes up as Josh Da Silva pumps Joe Root over mid-on for four.

Slog-sweep behind square... and that's four more. And again, full toss on leg stump and it's swatted away.

This has been distinctly unimpressive from England but this West Indies pair have batted superbly.

Six to end the over! Launched high over cow corner by Da Silva.

Another four for Shamar Joseph who's played some expansive and very impressive shots today.

The West Indies' mindset is that if they do something for long enough, cracks will start to appear.

Shamar Joseph is up to 29 now after glancing a leg-side delivery from Shoaib Bashir fine for four.

The tailender is batting bare-headed at the moment with spin at both ends. Josh Da Silva is in a cap.

They're both enjoying themselves. Certainly far more than the viewing public, I reckon.

I was actually surprised that Shamar Joseph came in at number 11.
