Much better showing tonight so far. Windies wobbling a bit at 6 for 2.

Brilliant work from Topley.

Great ball, stop and run out. Just wondering if Eddie Hemmings could have done that!?!?

Ha!

Wasn't noted for his agility.

Pooran gone now. He was looking both edgy and dangerous at the same time.

Wow!

That was mental.

Windies need 61 to win with three overs left and get 59 of them to lose by one run.

Still catching my breath.

20 off 3 balls!!!

Only England could nearly lose it from there.

I saw it described as the worst England win ever.

Indeed! Sometimes you just have to doff your cap to someone and say very well played. Amazing considering he took time to get in too which makes it all the more impressive.

All square then with one to play.

Moeen was brilliant with bat and ball. His innings was equally as brutal as Powell's, if not more so. 63 off 28 with 7 sixes for an even higher strike rate than Powell, which set us up for the victory.

Last one could go either way.

Pretty even at the moment.

England need 180 to win and have half of them with half the overs gone, so if they don't lose quick wickets, they should do it.

As I say that, Ali gets out, but it's evenly poised.
