Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match SpecialWhat a day it has been for England. It started so well for the West Indies and then Stuart Broad just unleashed some power and skill. With the ball in hand the partnership of Anderson and Broad is just relentless and it's very difficult for an inexperienced West Indies batting line-up.
Close of play - WI 137-6published at 18:01 British Summer Time 25 July 2020
Trail by 232
That is indeed that. No chance of the light improving and that's the scheduled close of play anyway, can't take the extra half hour now.
So West Indies close on 137-6, trailing England by 232 runs.

BBC Test Match SpecialIt's been England's day. It didn't look like it would be when they lost that flurry of four wickets.
Bad light stops playpublished at 17:59 British Summer Time 25 July 2020
The light meter is returning the same reading as it did when play was stopped yesterday so the umpires take the players off the field.
Is that it for the day?

BBC Test Match SpecialWhat is the point of them talking? They've either got the meter reading or they haven't?
WI 137-6published at 47.1 overs
Shane Dowrich sees off the first short ball.
Oh dear. The umpires are convening...

Jofra Archer does duly get his eighth over in a row.
Shane Dowrich is going to have to dig really deep here.

Here is how Woakes removed Blackwood earlier on...
WI 137-6published at 47 overs
Chris Woakes does well, keeping Jason Holder off strike for the next over and even beating his outside edge last up.
Surely Jofra Archer will want another over at Shane Dowrich?
WI 137-6published at 46.4 overs
Shane Dowrich loops two short balls from Chris Woakes up off different bits of his body but crucially not the bat.
He finally manages to shovel one round the corner for a single to get off the strike.

Dowrich had actually made his mind up to duck before Archer released that and it wasn't that short in the end.
England might bowl nothing but short balls at Dowrich here.

Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match SpecialI have to say, that wasn't even short. If you look at where it bounced it was about hip height and Dowrich just completely took his eye off the ball. I don't like seeing that because he's got a real issue with it.

BBC Test Match SpecialI think we know if Shane Dowrich is on strike to Jofra Archer exactly what the mode of attack is going to be. He's got away with that.
WI 136-6published at 46 overs
Close! It's brilliantly-placed from Jofra Archer and Shane Dowrich plays it dismisally, the ball looping invitingly up in the air.
Rory Burns makes a spectacular diving effort backpedalling from gully but the ball lands just out of reach.
WI 135-6published at 45.5 overs
Jason Holder can't keep Shane Dowrich away from Jofra Archer forever.
Dowrich has struggled against the short ball in this series and has one delivery to survive here.
WI 134-6published at 45.2 overs
Jason Holder opens the face and runs it down to third man for what should be an easy three but Holder just wants two.
Is he taking the responsibility of facing Jofra Archer as much as possible?

The umpires haven't actually used the light meter to take a reading yet.
The level at which the players will go off was set when played was stopped due to bad light at 18:15 yesterday.
Jofra Archer wants another over.
