Rahkeem Cornwall bowled a bit too short in the first innings but he's got into a groove in this innings and I think he deserves a wicket.

Joe Root has given the innings some impetus so far.

He's on 14 off 13 deliveries.

Rory Burns brings up the reverse sweep again but doesn't get it right this time and it loops off his forearm and away for a couple of runs.

The lead is up to 314.

It's understandable why the slip fielder would've been unsure there - it bounced just in front of his fingers.

Yep, well short of Shai Hope.

Let's get on with it.

The umpires are having a chat and are not sure whether this carried.

Ohh the cut has got Rory Burns in trouble again!

He gets a nick on it and Shai Hope at slip dives forward. But has it carried?

Hope signals he doesn't think it has but the umpires will check to be safe. Soft signal is not out.

Inventive from Rory Burns as he connects crisply with a premeditated reserve sweep to pick up four more.

It's quite bright out there now - I think we could be in store for half an hour of fun in the sun.

Another misfield from Jermaine Blackwood gives Joe Root and England three.

West Indies have been pretty disciplined with the ball today but their fielding looks like a side who are ready for a break.

England went 21 Tests over five years during the 1960s without a century opening stand, so there have been barren runs before.

Here's how Dom Sibley fell for 56.

He played well but his dismissal could be a good thing for England.

With that boundary England's lead is above 300 now. How many more will they want?

Yes, Joe!

The England skipper takes a step down the track and chips over mid-wicket for his first boundary.

He's got nine off seven balls.

Superb, Sam.

Some of the umpiring we saw in the Ashes last summer left a lot to be desired. This series has shown that home umpires can more than do the job.

England have scored 38 runs in 11 overs post tea. Not bad, but is it quick enough still?

There's certainly been more intent in the running.

I thought England might even be able to run five for a moment there.

Joe Root looks like he wants a run-a-ball 50 here. He misses a cut shot before maneuvering a single into the on side.

Then we've got another all-run four as a Rory Burns sweep is misfielded at mid-wicket.

Decent over for England with five coming off it.

If we're being honest, this is where Test cricket can be a grind. Not because of the way Sibley and Burns were batting - how long have England waited for a solid opening pair? - but because the action is on hold. Realistically, only one side can win, and we are simply waiting for the time when they try to do just that. That match continues, but the real battle is still to come.
