  1. Eng 162-5published at 35 overs

    Lawrence 38, Foakes 0

    The lead is now 258. Ben Foakes the new man in, so no declaration yet.

    Bairstow's knock of 29 came off 25 balls, by the way.

    Bairstow c Roach b Seales 29 (Eng 161-5)

    Jonny Bairstow holes out to long-off. Kemar Roach takes a good catch, running in and diving forward. Well judged.

    I'm loving the Test match today. Someone should invent a shorter form of the game, so this kind of batting happens more often!

  4. 6 runs

    Eng 158-4published at 34.1 overs

    Lead by 254 runs

    In the slot from Jayden Seales. Walloped for six by Dan Lawrence. Lead passes 250.

  5. Eng 152-4published at 34 overs

    Bairstow prods into the off side and the England pair sprint for two. Good running.

    Joe Root puts any lip readers out of work by covering his mouth while talking to coach Paul Collingwood.

  6. Eng 150-4published at 33.3 overs

    Lead by 246 runs

    A slower-ball bouncer from Jason Holder deceives Jonny Bairstow, who groans in frustration after.

    Bairstow and Lawrence take singles. England reach 150 with this partnership now worth 40 off 34 balls.

    Joe Root, Marcus Trescothick and Paul Collingwood are in deep discussions.

  7. Eng 148-4published at 33 overs

    Lead by 244

    That's 15 from the over. We have 35 minutes until lunch. Will England take it until then or have a couple of overs at the West Indies' openers before the interval?

  8. 6 runs

    Eng 145-4published at 32.2 overs

    Lead by 241

    Consecutive sixes! Bairstow smashes it straight down the ground.

  9. 6 runs

    Eng 139-4published at 32.1 overs

    Quality! Bairstow flicks Alzarri Joseph over square leg for six.

  10. 6 runs

    Eng 133-4published at 32 overs

    We saw a bit of uneven bounce yesterday and Holder has one keeping low again. It's an off-cutter which makes it all the more challenging for Bairstow, who stabs his bat down.

    Holder bowls a full toss and Lawrence smartly opens the face of his bat for a much-needed boundary.

  11. Eng 126-4published at 31 overs

    Lead by 222

    Alzarri Joseph and Kemar Roach are bowling well in tandem here. Restricting England's runs with yorkers.

    Bairstow does fine a boundary, however, with an inside edge which shoots past the leg stump and down to fine leg.

    The TV cameras keep panning to Joe Root. Surely a declaration isn't coming just yet? Ben Foakes is padded up.

  12. Eng 118-4published at 30 overs

    Lead by 214

    Pinpoint yorkers from Kemar Roach to begin the over. Lawrence takes three from the remaining deliveries.

    No boundaries. The Stokes wicket has pegged England back a bit.

  14. Eng 114-4published at 29 overs

    Lead by 210

    With many men on the boundary, there are plenty of gaps for Bairstow and and Lawrence to extend the lead with singles. Four from the over.

    Lunch will be at 16:45 GMT, with the afternoon session going from 17:25 - 19:25.

    Then the evening session begins at 19:45. It can go as late as 22:51, though bad light will probably stop that earlier.

    England probably want another 50 runs or so.

  17. Eng 110-4published at 28 overs

    Jonny Bairstow heads to the middle. England were on a real charge before the rain break.

  18. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 27.5 overs

    Stokes c Brathwaite b Roach 15 (Eng 110-4)

    Straight to the fielder.

    Kemar Roach pitches it up, wide of off stump, and Ben Stokes swings those big arms but finds Kraigg Brathwaite at cover.

    Stokes hangs his head in shame before trudging off. The dangerman has gone.

  19. Eng 107-3published at 27 overs

    Lead by 203 runs

    Aaaand we're off. Dan Lawrence pushes into the off side for a single as Alzarri Joseph completes his over.

    No time to waste. Expect some Ben Stokes fireworks.
