    Eng 178-3published at 16.4 overs

    Out goes one dangerous batter, in comes another. Romario Shepherd is the new man in and, on just his second delivery, smashes Rashid for a huge six.

  5. WI 169-2published at 16 overs

    Nothing is going England's way! Powell slaps it down the ground and an uneven bounce sends the ball into a differed direction and past a helpless Livingstone on the boundary.

  6. WI 164-2published at 15.4 overs

    Pooran 70, Powell 72

    Both men are in the seventies as Mills bowls a rare dot ball.

  7. WI 163-2published at 15.2 overs

    I'm running out of superlatives. Pooran waits for it and slices through backward point for four.

    Richard: Have there ever been two centuries in a single T20 international innings? Asking for a friend...

  9. 6 runs

    WI 159-2published at 15.1 overs

    Mills returns to the attack. In the slot. Pooran toe-ends it for six.

  10. WI 153-2published at 15 overs

    Brilliant fielding from George Garton. Pooran drives a slower delivery and Garton is at full stretch on the boundary to drag the ball back with one hand and save his side one run.

  12. 6 runs

    WI 149-2published at 14.3 overs

    My word! Rovman Powell is on absolute fire! A full delivery, swaying down leg side, is clipped up and over the square-leg boundary for six. Incredible cricket, this.

    Reece Topley - who went for six in his first two overs - returns to the attack. England need something special from the seamer here.

  15. WI 140-2published at 14 overs

    Powell hangs back and crunches it through the off side for four. Pure timing. Powell is pulling every trick out of the bag. TWENTY SIX from the over.

  16. WI 136-2published at 13.4 overs

    I'm starting to become lost for words. Back-to-back sixes. Another powerful blow. England and Livingstone are taking unreal punishment here.

    Powell now has his highest score in T20 internationals.

  17. 50 runs

    50 for Powellpublished at 13.3 overs

    WI 130-2

    Rovman Powell brings up his half-century in style! A powerful six.

  18. WI 124-2published at 13.2 overs

    Ugly. Awful. Comical.

    Liam Livingstone bowls perhaps his worst delivery ever in cricket. Going for the leg-spin, he bowls the widest ball you can imagine. It beats everyone. Five wides.

    Rachel T: This is monstrously beautiful batting from the Windies.

  20. WI 119-2published at 13.2 overs

    Beautiful. Pooran sweeps Livingstone and the ball races through to the boundary.

    This could end up being a mammoth total from West Indies.
