  1. Eng 117-5published at 14.3 overs

    England's dressing room look fairly despondent. Fabian Allen pushes a delivery through which goes through with the arm which just fizzes past Phil Salt's off stump.

  2. Eng 113-5published at 14.0 overs

    Phil Salt, chewing gum, spoons the final ball of Akeal Hosein's over in the air but he hasn't really got hold of it and with the field back it thuds into the turf.

    66 from 36 balls now for Sam Billings and Phil Salt to get England over the line.

    That feels like the game and the series for West Indies. It's going to take quite the partnership from Salt and Billings to get England close now.

    Vince c Allen b Hosein 55

    Left-arm spinner Akeal Hosein with another curious celebration - intimidating stirring a cup of tea? Catching a fish?

    Either way he has induced James Vince into a cross-batted hoick to a wider delivery which the Hampshire skipper sends skywards into the hands of Fabian Allen at cow corner.

  6. Eng 114-4published at 13.0 overs

    All-rounder Fabian Allen rattles through a tight over of spin for West Indies costing five runs. This boiling up to be a close finish.

    That's just the ninth time James Vince has gone past 50 in 55 knocks across all formats for England, but my word what a beautiful 50 it has been.

    Back-to-back boundaries for James Vince as he takes a shine to Akeal Hosein. First he crashes a pull for four, to bring up his fifty then ends the over with an uppish drive through the covers which the diving Kieron Pollard is unable to stop on the boundary.

    England need 74 runs from 48 balls.

    Mark Burt: Runs on the board. WI still in the box seat and all England fans should remember how they always prevail in crunch games. Champions Trophy and T20 WC being just two examples.

    That feels like a very important moment in this series.

    A bit of a soft dismissal. Liam Livingstone cuts Akeal Hosein straight into the hands of Odean Smith at point.

    Hosein has a celebration reminiscent of the 'old man' one performed by Samuel Eto'o for Chelsea after scoring a goal once.

    And as night follows day, Akeal Hosein is into the attack the moment Moeen Ali is out.

  13. Eng 94-3published at 11.0 overs

    A top-edge four for Liam Livingstone off the final delivery of Jason Holder's over as the ball loops over wicketkeeper Nicholas Pooran and runs away through fine leg.

    The crowd, some of whom look a touch sozzled and sunburnt, join in with Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline.

    This game is beautifully poised. England have already hit more fours than West Indies did in their entire innings. But West Indies hit 12 sixes to England's two.

    Moeen Ali c Mayers b Holder 14 (Eng 80-3)

    An extremely scratchy knock from the stand-in skipper, who played so fluently last night, is brought to an end the first ball after drinks.

    Moeen advances down the pitch trying to force the issue against the former Test captain Jason Holder, and spoons the ball into the hands of Kyle Mayers in the covers. Holder points his fingers in the air.

    Might that be a blessing in disguise? Enter Liam Livingstone...

    That latest drive from James Vince is absolutely beautiful. Words fail me... too gorgeous.

    Some quick liquid refreshments at the Kensington Oval. Can James Vince defy what nearly all of his us, including his nearest and dearest, are thinking?

    Smooth operator, smoooooooth operator.

    James Vince steps back past leg stump and gloroiusly strokes the ball through mid-off for four.

    Earlier Odean Smith twice drew an edge and it was not been spotted by the umpire or wicketkeeper Nicholas Pooran.
