  • 19.6

    OUT! Caught. Tom Curran to Jason Holder. Full toss, middle stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long off, by Billings. Holder can't get the desired connection and it is taken in the deep. Curran finishes with four wickets, that's a career best return for him.

    A swashbuckling Nicholas Pooran half century has lifted the Windies to 160/8 from their 20 overs in St Lucia. England kept on picking up wickets either side of Pooran's partnership with Darren Bravo, with Tom Curran and Chris Jordan impressively mixing slower balls with speedy back of a length deliveries. Adil Rashid was parsimonious as well, meaning the tourists will need to score at around eight runs per over in the chase.

  • 19.4

    FOUR! Tom Curran to Ashley Nurse. Length ball, outside off stump moves in front Scoop, well timed in the air under control past fine leg for 4 runs. Cheeky stroke, nicely done by Nurse. You would normally associate him with big powerful shots but this was a delicate little ramp.

  • 19.3

    Tom Curran to Ashley Nurse. Slower length ball, to leg backing away Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep mid wicket for 2 runs, fielded by Denly.

  • 19.2

    Tom Curran to Jason Holder. Short, outside off stump on the front foot pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Denly.

  • 19.1

    FOUR! Tom Curran to Jason Holder. Yorker, off stump on the front foot driving, inside edge past fine leg for 4 runs. There is no justice for bowlers in this format. Curran bowls the perfect yorker and yet somehow it scoots down to fine leg for a boundary.

  • 18.6

    Adil Rashid to Jason Holder. Leg spinner half volley, outside off stump moves in front slog sweeping, bottom edge to short fine leg for 1 run, fielded by Denly.

  • 18.5

    Adil Rashid to Ashley Nurse. Leg spinner length ball, off stump moves in front pushing, to point for 1 run, fielded by Plunkett.

  • 18.4

    Adil Rashid to Ashley Nurse. Leg spinner length ball, outside off stump moves in front slog sweeping, missed to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Bairstow.

  • 18.3

    FOUR! Adil Rashid to Ashley Nurse. Leg spinner back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot cutting, past deep cover for 4 runs, mis-fielded by Curran. Bonus runs for the Windies, that should have only been a single. Curran has been excellent with the ball today but he's had a bit of a shocker there in the deep.

  • 18.3

    Wide Adil Rashid to Ashley Nurse. Leg spinner length ball, wide outside off stump moves in front slog sweeping, missed to wicketkeeper for 1 run, fielded by Bairstow.

  • 18.2

    Wide Tom Curran to Ashley Nurse. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, missed to wicketkeeper for 1 run, fielded by Bairstow.

  • 17.5

    OUT! Bowled. Tom Curran to Nicholas Pooran. Half volley, to leg on the front foot flick, missed to. Bowled him, that's the wicket England have been seeking and Curran is the man to provide it. It was there to be hit, Pooran swiped across it and the stumps took a battering. Fantastic innings by Pooran, a career best in T20Is.

  • 17.4

    Tom Curran to Nicholas Pooran. Slower length ball, to leg on the front foot Slog, thick edge in the air uncontrolled to square leg for 2 runs, fielded by Denly.

  • 17.3

    Tom Curran to Nicholas Pooran. Length ball, to leg on the front foot Slog, missed to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Bairstow.

  • 17.2

    SIX! Tom Curran to Nicholas Pooran. Off cutter short, down leg side on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. Wow, that's gone miles and it's not coming back. Pooran continues to impress, if he bats until the end the Windies will get a decent total.

  • 17.1

    Tom Curran to Nicholas Pooran. Yorker, middle stump on the front foot defending, to silly point for no runs, fielded by Curran.

  • 16.6

    Joe Denly to Nicholas Pooran. Leg spinner length ball, middle stump on the front foot working, to long on for 1 run, fielded by Jordan. Fifty for Pooran, this is a gem of a knock by the explosive left-hander.

  • 16.5

    OUT! Caught. Joe Denly to Fabian Allen. Leg spinner half volley, middle stump backing away driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long off, by Jordan. This time Allen can't clear the ropes and he picks out the safest pair of hands on the field. Denly has been expensive in this over but he's picked up a wicket so Morgan will be pleased.

  • 16.4

    SIX! Joe Denly to Fabian Allen. Leg spinner length ball, middle stump on the front foot slog sweeping, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. Not off the middle of the blade but it's a short boundary in that direction so it has just enough to clear the lurking fielder.

  • 16.3

    Joe Denly to Nicholas Pooran. Leg spinner length ball, to leg on the back foot working, to mid on for 1 run, fielded by Jordan.

  • 16.2

    SIX! Joe Denly to Nicholas Pooran. Leg spinner length ball, to leg on the front foot Switch Hit, well timed in the air under control over deep backward point for 6 runs. Oh my word, that is one for the highlight reel. Pooran has absolutely no fear and unleashes a ridiculous piece of improvisation, swapping to become a right-hander and smashing the ball all the way.

  • 16.1

    Joe Denly to Fabian Allen. Leg spinner back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot cutting, to deep cover for 1 run, fielded by Curran.

    Wide Liam Plunkett to Nicholas Pooran. Off cutter short, down leg side on the back foot pulling, Play and Miss (Leg Side) to wicketkeeper for 1 run, fielded by Bairstow.

  • 18.5

    Sheldon Cottrell to Tom Curran. Back of a length, down leg side on the back foot pulling, in the air under control to deep mid wicket for 1 run.

    England have beaten Windies by four wickets to take an early lead in the three match T20I series, reaching their target with seven deliveries remaining in St Lucia. Jonny Bairstow set the tone in the chase, blasting his way to a career best 68 as the tourists raced ahead of the required run rate. There was a little wobble towards the end of the innings with Sheldon Cottrell bowling intelligently, but Joe Denly got them close enough for it to be too little too late. With the bat, no one could support Nicholas Pooran's explosive 58 for the hosts as the left-hander smashed four sixes. Chris Jordan, Tom Curran and Adil Rashid will all be pleased with their bowling performances as they stifled the normally powerful men in maroon. In the end, the main difference between the two sides was the fielding - Jordan took a spectacular return catch in the first innings while the Windies dropped a few chances and made several fumbles in the second. They will need to work on that for the 2nd T20I in St Kitts on Friday.

    സാം ബില്ലിങ്സ് b Sheldon Cottrell 18 (16)

    OUT! Bowled. Sheldon Cottrell to Sam Billings. Off cutter length ball, to leg on the front foot slog sweeping, missed to. Now then, is there going to be a twist in this match? England have been coasting along but all of a sudden they are looking nervous with just seven runs required. Billings was completely deceived by the slower ball and Cottrell made a mess of the stumps. Attention.

  • 17.5

    Jason Holder to Sam Billings. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, top edge in the air uncontrolled to fine leg for 1 run, dropped catch by Thomas, fielded by Pooran. This sums up the night for the Windies. Thomas sticks out a big hand and it bobbles out. If it had stuck it might have caused a few nerves in the England camp.

    ജോ തെന്‍ലൈ c Nicholas Pooran b Jason Holder 30 (29)

    OUT! Caught. Jason Holder to Joe Denly. Back of a length, off stump backing away pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep square leg, by Pooran. Denly wants to get things finished in a hurry but this hits high on the blade and loops out into the deep. Pooran clings on, it's subdued celebrations from the hosts though because they know it's too little too late.

    FOUR! Jason Holder to Joe Denly. Off cutter short, outside off stump down the track pulling, well timed in the air under control past long off for 4 runs. Flat-batted back over the bowler's head, Denly picked his spot because both mid on and mid off are up in the circle.

    FOUR! Sheldon Cottrell to Sam Billings. Back of a length, to leg backing away Steer, past third man for 4 runs, mis-fielded by Thomas. Billings gets his first boundary now courtesy of a tame effort on the boundary rope. Windies haven't looked particularly agile in the field tonight.

    FOUR! Sheldon Cottrell to Joe Denly. Back of a length, middle stump on the back foot cutting, well timed past deep backward point for 4 runs. Denly pounces on some width and sends the ball scorching over the turf. These two Kent men look in command.
