What do England do now? They may see the loss of Bairstow as a reason to go even further onto the attack, rather than go really long with their innings.

Ben Foakes has made his way to the middle but the players are taking a drinks break. That wicket is some relief for Alzarri Joseph who began this over with figures of 0-98 from 20 overs.
He took the brunt of the Stokes assault before lunch.

Bairstow c Bonner b Joseph 20 (Eng 410-5)
Jonny Bairstow thumps his bat in disgust. He is not happy. In an attempt to get the scoreboard flowing again he's hit a high catch straight to deep square leg.
England are five down.

Stokes 105, Bairstow 20
England take five runs from Jason Holder's latest over, all of them in singles. It's very much like the middle overs of an ODI with Holder mixing up his pace with slower balls.
Will West Indies dare bring on spinner Veerasammy Permaul again while Stokes is in?

Stokes reaching his century may well mean England go back on the attack. It has been quiet since lunch after the fireworks beforehand.

Stokes 101, Bairstow 16
A cut from Jonny Bairstow brings more cheers from the largely England-supporting crowd as it takes the tourists beyond 400. How long since England last managed that, I hear you ask.
Not as long as you'd think. They did it against India at Headingley in August last year.

Former West Indies bowler on BT SportA wonderful innings so far from Ben Stokes who has played brilliantly. Once he gets going he can punish any attack in world cricket. A standing ovation and he's deserved this hundred. He's taken the attack the bowlers and they have had no answer.

All of the Kensington Oval stands as Ben Stokes removes his helmet, looks to the skies and makes that signal with his finger - a reference to his late father.
That is, incidentally, Stokes first century since his father passed away. It's his 11th Test ton in total.

Jonathan Agnew
BBC cricket correspondent in BarbadosThis is the Ben Stokes that empties the bars as people come to watch. Strong, bludgeoning drives, big sixes. No cricket ground is big enough when he's in this sort of mood...

There it is! An outstanding century from Ben Stokes, brought up from 114 balls.

Down the pitch Stokes comes...
He picks out the fielder...

West Indies are just making Ben Stokes wait at the start of this over...

Stokes 99, Bairstow 12
Jonny Bairstow is grinning about something under his blue England helmet. He and Stokes come together at the end of the over. Will there be any nerves?
Eng 395-4published at 123.1 overs
Stokes is clearly not as eager to get to the landmark as I am to see it. He takes another leisurely single at the start of Roach's over to move to 99.
Eng 394-4published at 123 overs
Stokes 98, Bairstow 12
Better from Bairstow. After those two fours he blocks out the rest of Jayden Seales' over to remain firmly at the non-striker's end for the next set.
Eng 394-4published at 122.3 overs
He may be the sideshow right now but that is a brilliant shot from Jonny Bairstow. He sends the ball whistling back by the stumps, Stokes lurching back into his ground to ensure there's no unfortunate dismissal.
Oh and again! Lovely from Jonny Bairstow.
