    Caspar Battam: Sorry but Buttler's gotta go! Doing zero to justify his place in Test team.

    The fifty partnership came in 15.3 overs. That was just the third boundary in it.

    Chase 28, Blackwood 26

    Well, Archie, Archer is back.

    And he's greeted with a Jermaine Blackwood boundary. It's a lovely shot, whipped to square leg.

    Archer comes back with a hostile bouncer which Blackwood defends solidly off the back foot.

    That's the 50 partnership up these two.

    Archer has shown us his pace on multiple occasions but today we really see how much skill he has too. Not bowling his fastest but it's quality stuff.

    You could see on Buttler's face that he knew straight away that he's missed out.

    Another leg side delivery from Stokes and this time Buttler does hold on. But there's no nick.

    Buttler knew and he is shaking his head.

    Jos Buttler is still hanging his head.

    Blackwood did glove it!

  8. dropped catch

    Blackwood dropped on 20published at 26.3 overs

    WI 73-3

    Not the easiest of chances but that's a drop by Jos Buttler.

    Ben Stokes bangs it short, angling into Chase's ribs, the West Indies number number four looks to work it fine and Jos Buttler, behind the stumps, can't quite hold on as he dives one-handed to his left.

    It's given a leg bye but replays show that it did indeed come off the glove. England would have reviewed had he grabbed it. And West Indies would have been four down.

  10. Eng 70-3published at 14:26 British Summer Time 12 July 2020

    Umpire Illingworth has a quiet word with Anderson, telling him to watch his step on the follow through as the seamer steps close to that 'danger zone' in the middle of the pitch.

    Anderson gets one to rise off the turf. We've seen a bit of uneven bounce in this match.

    A thick outside edge races past a diving Stokes at gully. Two from the over.

    Still can't call this game.

    It has been a really controlled partnership from these two. The wicket has looks very placid for the moment but we have seen how much it can change this week.

  12. WI 68-3published at 25 overs

    Stokes varies his bounce, banging a couple in short and the rest at a good length and angling in to the batsmen.

    A decent first over of the innings from the stand-in captain, but no breakthrough.

    Ben Stokes is bringing himself on. He's made for these situations, right?

    There are a couple too many easy singles for West Indies for my liking.

    Target 200

    I can better that, Stephan. I was a weekly haircut-and-beard-trim kinda fella before lockdown. Every Thursday evening, without fail. The last few months had been a real struggle.

    The ball not doing too much for Anderson as West Indies knock two more off the target.

    England need to break up this partnership - it's looking all too easy for Windies.

    Chris Woakes has been on as 12th man. He might wonder why one of the young reserves in the squad hasn't been sent out to field.

    I've worried about Woakes during lockdown. We were once told that he likes to get his hair cut every 10 days. Barbers being closed will have vexed him more than most.

    Chase 25, Blackwood 16

    Ask his wife, James.

    Roston Chase shows some intent as he lofts Dom Bess over mid-on for a boundary. There was some real purpose to that shot.

    It's case of small wins here for West Indies, reducing that deficit. If they can make it to 100 without losing a wicket, they will be firmly in the game. Things have got a little flat for England out there.

    Just after lunch England have bowled a little both sides of the wicket. Before lunch they were so good.
