That's it from this game then! The action now shifts to St Lucia. That game will be played on the 14th. It will begin at 2000 GMT. Till then, goodbye and take care!
Rovman Powell says it gets easier to bat on and the toss plays an important part. Mentions they need to lose less wickets especially earlier on. States they need someone in the top order to bat longer. States they always try to rectify their mistakes but he's looking forward for the next game. Ends by saying it's going to be hard but they need to find a win.
Jos Buttler, MAN OF THE MATCH! He says there's an advantage bowling first and the new ball bowlers were very good. Credits Dan Mousley for the way he bowled. States they need to start again and do well in the next game too.
Earlier in the game, West Indies struggled to 158/8, with Rovman Powell being the standout performer. After losing early wickets, including Brandon King and Evin Lewis, they recovered somewhat with a good partnership between Powell and Nicholas Pooran. Pooran was stumped off Liam Livingstone, and the tailenders contributed crucial runs to boost the total. England's bowlers, particularly Saqib Mahmood, Dan Mousley, and Liam Livingstone were the standouts.
Buttler's explosive knock of 83 was pivotal, effectively dismantling the West Indies bowling attack. Although both set batsmen eventually fell, they ensured a smooth passage to victory. The West Indies bowlers struggled throughout, with Akeal Hosein claiming one wicket and Shepherd taking two, but it was not enough to halt England's momentum.
A dominant performance from the visitors! What a masterclass in batting from England's captain, Jos Buttler, as he led his side to a comprehensive victory, taking a 2-0 lead in the series. Chasing a target of 159, England faced an early setback with Salt's dismissal for a golden duck. However, Buttler, alongside Will Jacks, built a formidable partnership of 129 runs off just 72 deliveries.
