  1. WI 114-2published at 13 overs

    Rashid completes the over. Just the three from it.

  2. 50 runs

    50 for Pooranpublished at 12.5 overs

    That's Pooran's half-century. A wonderful innings off 34 balls. He's played some big hits but also taken the singles and allowed Rovman Powell to take the reins.

  3. WI 112-2published at 12.3 overs

    West Indies taking fewer risks against the wicket-taking and experienced Rashid. Pooran defends two balls and then scrambles a single.

  4. WI 111-2published at 12 overs

    Powell has worked up a sweat. His shirt is sticking to him as he wipes his brow.

    Both battters take plenty of time to review their options and eye up the gaps before helping themselves to three more singles.

    Ged: I think whatever the West Indies post, England will be in with a good chance the way Liam Livingstone clobbers the ball.

  6. 6 runs

    WI 108-2published at 11.2 overs

    Too short from Garton and Nicholas Powell plays a beautiful pull shot which goes high and far! A fella in blue takes a catch in the stands.

  7. WI 102-2published at 11.1 overs

    George Garton is back into the attack and almost has his second wicket in T20 cricket.

    Powell drags it to the leg side and debutant Harry Brook does very well to dive forward and stop the boundary, the ball falling just short.

    Is there a braver cricketer in the world?

  9. WI 101-2published at 11 overs

    Short from Adil Rashid and Pooran slaps it back past the leg-spinner. Rashid sticks out a hand but the ball whizzes past him at speed.

    A fine over from Rashid, though. Just the five from it.

  10. WI 99-2published at 10.1 overs

    He's not all about the power, you know. Powell is down low to play a delicate sweep for three.

    Sarah Gosling: How exciting is it to see West Indies back in majestic form. More like the Windies of my teens, albeit a different format and I love it.

  12. drinks break

    Ey? A forward defensive? Powell then takes a single to end the over.

    And it's a much-needed drinks break for the tourists.

  13. WI 94-2published at 9.4 overs

    Pooran 38 (22), Powell 29 (21)

    Just watching a replay of Rovman Powell's four sixes in this innings. T20 hitting at its best.

    Pooran, who has quite happily played second fiddle for the past few overs, takes two runs and then a single. Back to you, Powell.

  15. 6 runs

    WI 91-2published at 9.1 overs

    HUUUUUUGE! Powell makes the most of his free opportunity by clobbering it down the ground for six. A massive strike.

  16. WI 85-2published at 9 overs

    Heads! The ball slips out of Mills' hand for a beamer which goes past shoulder height.

    A free hit. To Powell. Not what England want.

  17. WI 84-2published at 9 overs

    Ridiculous from Powell. He's off balance and still manages to find power, and the gap, to pull through square leg for four.

    That's 14 from Moeen's over.

  18. WI 77-2published at 8.3 overs

    Phwoar. Powell dances down the wicket, swings his arms and smashes it back past Moeen for a huge six.

  19. WI 71-2published at 8.2 overs

    England's stand-in skipper Moeen Ali brings himself on. Chewing gum, orchestrating the field - he's looks the part.

  20. WI 70-2published at 8 overs

    Away from CapGate, hats off to Livingstone who comes back well to concede four singles from the remainder of his over.
