    Shamarh Brooks ticks on to his first half-century against England.

    The 31-year-old has waited for this chance but is impressing.

    MCC Hammer might be my favourite of your suggestions. Nice work.

    How is Ben Stokes still running in here? This spell started around 14:15 BST. The man is not human. He's not even breathing heavily at the end of the over. HOW?

    West Indies have scored quickly today.

  6. WI 209-4published at 70 overs

    I shouldn't have said anything. Woakes is back-cut for four by Brooks and then over-corrects his line, the ball flicking the batsman's pad and running to the fine leg boundary.

    61 to avoid the follow-on now.

  7. WI 201-4published at 69.4 overs

    Chris Woakes is bowling well in this spell. He beats Shamarh Brooks for the second time in as many overs.

    Roston Chase is getting the same treatment as Brooks and Brathwaite had been receiving for the past 40 minutes from Stokes.

    It's remarkable fitness from England's all-rounder. 10 overs in a row bowling almost exclusively bouncers.

    Chase gets off the mark with a couple.

    That's the best I've seen Brathwaite play for a long time. Can England take advantage?

    West Indies need 71 to avoid the follow-on. You'd think England would have to bowl them out before that mark to be able to win.

    Here's Roston Chase.

    There's always a way with Ben Stokes. He's just given England a glimmer of hope.

    Brathwaite c&b Stokes 75 (WI 199-4)

    Ben Stokes has done it again. He has banged away with his ploy and finally gets a reward.

    It's not a particularly special delivery but when Brathwaite tries to turn the ball to leg he gets a leading edge and chips the simplest of catches back to Stokes.

    Forget the coffee, Steph. Grab a net. I want to see some of this...

    There is a coffee shop underneath the hotel on the ground. You can get into it from outside and also via a door underneath one of the stands. However, that internal door is off limits and the coffee shop itself, though technically in the same building as where we're all staying, is out of bounds. It gives an indication of the tight boundary of the bubble.

    Every ball of Ben Stokes' ninth over is short. Shamarh Brooks bows his head as if giving a curtsy and lets the ball go harmlessly over his head. The plan is not working.

    We're certainly seeing why England are desperate for pace, because when it becomes flat you can see what pace can do - it gives the captain something different. There's a big difference between a mid-80s mph bouncer and a 90mph bouncer.

    Chris Woakes is in the Alice band camp rather than joining his headband-wearing team-mates Stuart Broad and Sam Curran.

    England are really missing that properly quick bowler.
