Joe Root is continuing. It probably won't matter but why?

Kemar Roach is surrounded at the crease and decides attack is the best form of defence after blocking a few. A big swing gives him four. More importantly he's not out.

Not sure this was the advice Alzarri Joseph got from the dressing room...

Both Stokes and Root are smiling. I don't think it's too serious but I am about as good a doctor as I am a film critic.

Stokes is staying on the field. It doesn't look that bad but Joe Root is going to finish the over.

Oh no. Please no. Ben Stokes has stopped mid-over and isn't going to continue.

Jason Holder looks glum upstairs. I'm not surprised. Shannon Gabriel averages 4.63.

BBC Sport at Emirates Old TraffordThe players are sitting in seats usually used by the media, just below the TMS box. When that ninth wicket fell, we wondered where the wild cheering was coming from, until the penny dropped...

Only Shannon Gabriel can save West Indies now. Dom Bess is eyeing the final wicket. I've got to say, it'd be fitting if Stokes could take it.

England are nearly there! A classic tailender's dismissal with Joseph having a swing at a full ball. He skews the ball to gully. England hardly celebrate. The end is nigh.
One wicket to go.
