Alzarri Joseph to Buttler, out Lbw!! No 100 and a collective groan from the crowd as Buttler misses out. It's a fast short of length delivery that tailed in late, Buttler shuffles across and tries to clip, misses, was beaten for pace, thudded into the pads on the kneeroll, given out and Buttler reviews to see it as ump's call on hitting. That will do for West Indies. End of a fantastic knock though. Buttler lbw b Alzarri Joseph 96(59) [4s-6 6s-4]
18.1

Alzarri Joseph to Buttler, FOUR, short third man is inside and that's four. A full and wide delivery outside off, Buttler reaches for it and throws the bat, off the thick outside-edge and well wide of the fielder in the ring
17.5
Shepherd to Buttler, 2 runs, slower-ball off-cutter dug in short on the stumps, Buttler gives the charge and flat-bats it to mid-on, Shepherd chases, slides and gets up in one motion, shies at the non-striker's end, misses, a direct-hit would have got Jacob Bethell - who had given up
17.3

Shepherd to Buttler, FOUR, slower-ball off-cutter full on off, Buttler sets up for the reverse-sweep and gets it over backward point, hit in the air and wide of sweeper cover, again got into position really well and got it off the middle of the bat

W
Russell to Tom Banton, out Lbw!! Tom Banton has been given OUT LBW, looked straight to the naked eye, he reviews though, only height can save him. Shuffled across and missed a straight ball, pinned on the pad, just above the knee-roll, the impact is in front of middle and it's clipping the top of middle-stump, stays with the original call and Banton has to go. England don't lose a review, but they've lost Tom Banton now. The mini revival from West Indies continues, might've nipped back slightly, but Banton made it worse for himself with that shuffle. Tom Banton lbw b Russell 3(4)

W
Roston Chase to Brook, out Bowled!! Four and OUT for the England captain - Chase tosses one slower and at the stumps, Brook backed away and was looking to go inside out over cover, tried to hit it too square, played inside the line and watches the ball crash into the middle-stump, couple of useful wickets as West Indies stage a fightback. They've taken drinks at the fall of Brook. Brook b Roston Chase 6(5) [4s-1]

Shepherd to Jamie Smith, out Caught by Rutherford!! Catching practice at deep mid-wicket and Shepherd has two now - back of a length and just outside off, another delivery that had pace taken off it, Smith stayed on the front-foot as he shaped for the whippy pull, doesn't get any elevation on the shot and picks out Rutherford at deep mid-wicket, a simple catch and the dangerous stand has been broken. Jamie Smith c Rutherford b Shepherd 38(20) [4s-4 6s-2]
