    West Indies are not used to winning. That's a big factor.

    Lead by 250

    Better from Bishoo as he deceives Moeen with a googly that beats the outside edge.

    But the leggie drifts onto the pads and Moeen clips it away for one. The lead reaches 250.

    Good delivery that beats Woakes' tentative prod to end.

  3. Eng 418-7published at 123.1 overs

    Bishoo raps Moeen's pads, it pops up to short leg as Windies appeal for the catch.

    No bat involved, though.

    Philip James, in north Wales, has sent this to us via #bbccricket. What a superb cover drive that is from his son. Remind you of anyone?

    It's getting to the point now where it'll take more than a quick 50, a couple of 20s and some extras to get West Indies home. Somebody's going to have to bat really well.

    Lead by 249

    England's tormentor-in-chief before tea, Roston Chase, is back into the attack.

    But Moeen is seeing it so well right now, clinically pushing it away for one before Woakes does the same.

    Almost a wide from Chase before Moeen comfortably picks up another single off his pads.

    A terrific, potentially match-clinching 50 from Moeen Ali, capped off with this superb shot to reach the landmark...

    Dawid Malan's five-hour graft has set this up for Moeen Ali. The bowlers are tired now and the lower order can capitalise.

    Bishoo 16-0-45-0

    All too easy for Moeen to pick up three runs off the over from Bishoo, who is still yet to bowl a maiden in this innings.

    Lead by 243

    Moeen tucks it away for a couple before dropping it into off to scurry a quick single. Good strike rotation.

    Woakes guides it through vacant point for one. Moeen picks up another into cover.

    West Indies looking really flat. They need to find a burst of inspiration. Or they need Matt Henry back on live text duties.

    West Indies are bowling without a point. You need a point for the one Moeen slices in the air.

    Moeen is so easy on the eye. What a way to bring up his half-century.

    Aaaaah, vintage Moeen as he dispatches a crisp cover drive to the fence to reach his 12th Test half-century.

    Lovely stuff.

    Ali 48, Woakes 26

    Beauty from Bishoo as the leggie rips one past the outside edge of bounce.

    Moeen at the other end won't mind seeing that - plenty of encouragement for when he bowls in the fourth innings.

    Just a single off the over.

    Lead by 233

    Woakes watchful as Roach responds with a sequence of better balls.

    The lead is racing towards that 250 England would've targeted at the start of this innings.

    The lead is starting to become a punishing one for West Indies.

    The timing on this was glorious. It was in the air but the only man in danger was Moeen Ali losing his beard.

  20. Eng 402-7published at 118.3 overs

    Woakes isn't going to open in the Ashes but...

    He's showing up some other batsmen in this Test, firstly whipping Roach down the ground for four, followed by a crisp cut shot for two straight boundaries.

    400 up for England.
