  1. WI 135-5published at 61 overs

    The Barmy Army may be loud but the England fielders have quietened down. Ben Stokes has his arms crossed at leg-slip as the light seems to get even darker.

    Maiden from Lawrence. Four overs to go.

    The Barmy Army are in good voice, but this win is slipping away from England

  3. WI 135-5published at 60 overs

    Brathwaite pushes into the gap for two. Matt Fisher, at deep point, mops up.

    But other than that, not much to report. Just five overs to go now and this game looks almost certain to be heading for a draw.

  4. WI 133-5published at 59 overs

    Minimum six overs remaining

    Dan Lawrence continues but it seems West Indies have weathered the earlier storm. The spinner drags it short and Da Silva, not for the first time, despatches to the boundary.

  5. WI 127-5published at 58 overs

    Minimum seven overs remaining

    Brathwaite is forward to Leach and an edge somehow falls between all the fielders who are in close.

    England's hopes are fading.

    Twelfth man came on for the West Indies and was quickly shooed off by the umpires - remember Bilal Shafayat at Cardiff, anyone?

  7. WI 127-5published at 57 overs

    Minimum eight overs remaining

    Lawrence has bowled very well in these circumstances. But a wide delivery outside off , a loopy full toss and a short ball on leg stump - which is clubbed for four by Da Silva - is not going to cause many problems.

    Play was stopped for bad light at 21:41 GMT yesterday, so if that repeats today, England have less than half an hour to get these five wickets. But, for the moment, the sun is out.

  9. WI 122-5published at 56 overs

    Nine overs remaining

    Not much turn for Leach. Easily dealt with by Da Silva.

    The tension starts to ease as each over is completed. The England fielders are also slightly less vocal than they were perhaps a few overs ago.

    A wicket will change things, though.

  10. 50 runs

    50 for Brathwaitepublished at 55 overs

    WI 122-5

    Lawrence is running back to his marker after each delivery. England are in a massive rush to make sure they complete their overs before any potential bad light.

    Brathwaite reaches his half-century with a boundary. He plays an excellent innings for the second time this Test. But the job is far from being done yet.

    We have 10 overs to go, folks.

    Stokes off. Dan Lawrence back on.

  13. WI 113-5published at 54 overs

    Minimum of 11 over remaining

    Oh my! What a delivery from Jack Leach! It keeps straight, goes through bat and pad and is inches from the off stump.

    Brathwaite is then beaten again, this time stabbing down inside the line.

    Brathwaite is on 46 from 154 deliveries. Da Silva is on 18 from 27.

  14. WI 113-5published at 53 overs

    Minimum of 12 overs remaining

    Do I have any sympathy for them? I mean, they've just spent five days watching Test cricket in Barbados.

    A helmetless Da Silva has looked pretty solid so far. Ben Foakes comes up to the stumps with Stokes bowling. England trying everything they can here.

    Short from Stokes and Da Silva fiercely pulls to mid-wicket for four. The best form of defence is attack.

    Spare a thought for the members of the Barmy Army who are booked onto the 9pm flight back to the UK tonight. This might not finish until 6... they'll be hoping for a clear run to the airport...

  16. WI 109-5published at 52 overs

    Minimum of 13 overs remaining

    Joshua Da Silva has taken his helmet off again for the spin of Jack Leach. That seems to have irked Jonny Bairstow.

    "Umpire, come on, he can't do that every time. Helmet on and helmet off," he says.

    Leach meanwhile bowls a beauty to Brathwaite - beating the outside edge.

    The light is fading a little.

    Braithwaite is now just over 50 balls away from facing as many balls in this test than he did in 6 county matches for Gloucestershire in 2021. Will he do it, going to be exciting?

  18. WI 109-5published at 51 overs

    Every ball counts. It's a largely unthreatening over from Stokes as West Indies eat up six more deliveries.

    But the hosts have a long tail. England know one more wicket and with the likes of Alzarri Joseph and Kemar Roach in next, there is still hope.

  19. Postpublished at 21:01 Greenwich Mean Time 20 March 2022

    The final hour. We have 15 overs to go. Ben Stokes has the ball in his hand.

    How can you not love this?
