Brooks c Crawley b Leach 5 (WI 65-3)
Jack Leach strikes again!!
Shamarh Brooks caught at slip the very next ball after that sublime sweep shot.
Zak Crawley does better off Leach this time, taking a fine low catch.
Perhaps quite making up for previous drops, but this wicket could be key.
WI 65-2published at 33.5 overs
Leach bowled 20 maidens in the first innings.
He has 1-29 off 15 so far this innings.
Lovely rhythm and confidence seemingly bouncing off of his shiny bald head currently.
Brooks plays an exquisite sweep for four to make a minor dent in that confidence and the total.
WI 61-2published at 32 overs
I was very disappointed to see Bonner only get one over of his filthy leg-spin this match, although it did take about 18 hours for the over to be completed.
Meanwhile he has a job to do with the bat again here.
He sees off another Stokes over comfortably enough, turning down pull shot opportunities.
Stokes oversteps to ruin his maiden.
WI 60-2published at 31 overs
Minimum 40 overs remaining
A slip, a silly point, a leg slip and a short leg in place.
Brooks doesn't seem to fancy conversation with any of those four and Ben Foakes yet though.
Leach wheels through another maiden.
(Not quite Jadeja's wheels, but wheeled enough.)
Not outpublished at 18:32 Greenwich Mean Time 12 March 2022
Ball tracking shows that would have missed leg stump by a fair margin after hitting Shamarh Brooks' pad.
No real turn there at all.
England reviewpublished at 18:30 Greenwich Mean Time 12 March 2022
A Jack Leach appeal for lbw AGAIN!
Going down? Joe Root sends it upstairs...
WI 60-2published at 30 overs
Minimum 41 overs remaining
Brooks and Bonner both incredibly watchful, as you'd expect after two quick wickets.
Just the one run from 26 balls between the pair.
And after the previously obdurate Kraigg Brathwaite channelled his inner Virender Sehwag last innings, these two have to be the West Indies' chief blockers.
Kemar Roach gave a useful audition to that title last knock mind.
WI 59-2published at 29 overs
Target 286
Another maiden from the Taunton Vettori.
However much stick Leach received over the Ashes, would anyone rather Permaul to Leach now given this Test?
It ain't all that easy bowling spin against David Warner and an in-form Travis Head I'm sure.
WI 59-2published at 28 overs
Minimum 43 overs remaining
Stokes and Leach doing a grand job currently with a wicket apiece.
Stokes rather fortunate with his lbw after Leach had been unlucky with multiple close reviews this week, neither will care if they can contribute to a historic victory here though.
Last ball of Stokes' maiden sees a stifled appeal, nothing in that.
The two right-handers in now should suit Leach turning the ball away from both.

BBC cricket correspondent in AntiguaEngland will be hoping for a few more shooters keeping low to prey on the batsmen’s minds like that wicket of Brathwaite. Not sure we will see West Indies taking risks for a while now.

Marathon man Nkrumah Bonner replaces Campbell and we now have two batters on nought.
How much will England rue the rain last night costing them at least 12 overs after earlier showers in the day had them off briefly too?
Game on currently though as still plenty of time left in this match.

BBC Sport in AntiguaAt last Jack Leach has a bit of luck. You can tell what a popular team-mate he is by the way the players celebrated his wicket with him.

Campbell c Overton b Leach 22 (WI 59-2)
Jack Leach is getting the England fielders very excited around the bat.
When will his luck change...?!
Now!
John Campbell tried to clear mid on, but he doesn't! A woeful shot from the Windies opener.
A wicket made in Somerset as Leach's team-mate Craig Overton takes the catch.
WI 59-1published at 26 overs
Target 286
Shamarh Brooks the new batter, how will he go about this now?
Wicket maiden from Stokes.
This could get interesting (I'm ever the optimist anyway...)
WICKETpublished at 25.1 overs
Brathwaite lbw Stokes 33 (WI 58-1)
Given this time!
Stokes strikes Brathwaite on the pad first ball of the next over. Big appeal and given!
The ball kept really low, but that looked pretty leg-side!
Surely that was worth a review from the Windies skipper?!
Not outpublished at 18:06 Greenwich Mean Time 12 March 2022
No bat made contact as Brathwaite's feet stay outside leg stump and his bat is angled towards mid-wicket.
Ball tracking shows the ball going on to clip leg stump.
Umpire's call, review retained.
Close again for Leach but not close enough. Root gives him a consolatory cuddle.
England reviewpublished at 25 overs
Before this match Brathwaite and Campbell hadn't had a 50-run opening partnership in three years - now two in the match, setting a platform for a late surge to 286?
Leach gets through another maiden - the last ball a big appeal for lbw.
Will Root review again? This is closer...he does!
WI 58-0published at 24 overs
Stokes tries the short ball ploy to Campbell, he attempts to hook, but as his bat came through both feet were in the air - a coach's nightmare.
Somehow from this position he manages to evade the ball - almost an accidental Labuschagne lightsaber leave.
