They had 121 from the first 16 overs but then added 75 from the last four including Rashid’s last over, the nineteenth, when they scored 6-6-6-1-6-6.

Finished with 196/6.

Should be an interesting second half

I caught the last three overs after coming home. Entertaining stuff.

England want 62 from the last six overs with four wickets down. Although we’ve been in front of them for most of this innings, that last four overs from West Indies is going to make it tough for us.

We are 23 in front at this stage.

14 off the over - 48 from 5 overs needed

Bethell out last ball of 16th over - 28 needed off four overs

Another good over - 17 needed from last three overs

17 off 18 has now become 11 off 18 with a no ball going to the boundary followed by a wide

2 needed from 2 overs

England win with nine balls to spare

A pity that WIndies always fall short, was at Riverside on Friday where it was a similar story. England bat well down the order but the bowling is average and we are being flattered by the opposition.
