00:00Oh, jams a Yorker in, first up, strikes, back into the side, an instant success for Luke
00:18Wood with a beauty.
00:21Well, Evan Lewis reviewed this straight away, almost ready to take guard again, which was
00:27a clear indication that he thought the spikes were an indication that he'd got an inside
00:32edge.
00:33OK, ball tracking coming up now, pitching in line, impact in line, wicket's hitting, back
00:40on field to Martin, Martin you can stay with your on field decision, you're on screen now.
00:46Like Liam Dawson.
00:47One, plenty, plenty of that, just slightly short, rock back.
00:58Well, the boundary sizes here at Bristol are very short straight, so from a spinner's perspective,
01:03you don't want to float it up and let them hit you down the ground, so you can see why
01:07Dawson.
01:08Flipped away, fine, races away down the hill, and that will be four.
01:21There's some of that power, straight back over, long off, wonderful strike, Shea Hope.
01:27That's gone away, fine, Luke Wood was moved around, there was a short third ball then.
01:42Short, and gives himself a bit of room.
01:50Finds the gap again, this time through point for four more.
01:54Well, each time Liam Dawson's been punished today, it's because he's been on the short
01:59side.
02:02Oh, is it a touch?
02:04Butler's keen, Dawson's keen.
02:09Martin Segers, not so much.
02:14Sliced away, and that'll be a few.
02:17Gracious me, that's gone all the way.
02:19Bumped down the ground, that sounded sweet.
02:28Yeah, that's a biggie.
02:29Kars hits the turf as well.
02:32There, Miles.
02:34Heaved away, leg side, man in the deep, it's going to be over his head, six.
02:37Straight back to Bethel, who I don't think gets a hand on it.
02:49He's one of England's better fielders.
02:50He might even have been taking evasive action.
02:59Drag down from Rashid, I think he thought he was coming.
03:02Palmed over the bar by Luke Wood.
03:04A very, very difficult chance.
03:08Could have backed him up.
03:10Very difficult.
03:13Beauty.
03:14Absolute beauty from Rashid.
03:16Joss Butler does the rest.
03:18He is a magician.
03:19He is a magician.
03:20It's outstanding, with the control of length.
03:31That's Rousha Hoop into the forward.
03:34Well, by the time that decision was put up on the big screen.
03:47He does get it past Wood this time.
03:51Just a slight adjustment from the previous ball.
03:54High it goes.
04:00Tom Banton.
04:02And we had the most beautiful sight of that right in front of our commentary position.
04:08Banton just setting himself.
04:10Didn't quite get it right, Shane Rutherford.
04:13He just opened the face again.
04:16But he wants to hit it down the ground and it meant he slightly mistimed it.
04:21Rashid does it as well as anyone.
04:22Well, he's tossed this one up and he's going to pay the penalty.
04:28It was a beautiful strike.
04:30It's been coming.
04:33Got him.
04:35Really good from Luke Wood.
04:36Back in the side today after missing the opening game at Durham.
04:41Dawson.
04:43Smashed away and smashed into the gap.
04:45Well, he's got that.
04:53That is a mighty strike.
04:55Well, that's a moral victory for Dawson.
05:03I don't think Rashid will catch that.
05:05It's beautifully bowled, but that's T20 cricket if you're a bowler.
05:08He's beeny, by the way.
05:12Carved away.
05:13Carved away for four.
05:1420 from the over.
05:15That's an excellent one for West Indies.
05:17They needed it.
05:181.41 for four.
05:26Sounded good.
05:27Sounded magnificent.
05:30Well, he's butchered that and that has gone a very long way.
05:33And he's got that too.
05:41But not enough of it.
05:43Great catch from Luke Wood.
05:45Had to make good ground away to his left.
05:47Had to be aware of where the boundary cushion was.
05:50But he has done it on occasions.
05:51Well, that has not started well.
05:55He's gone out the front of the hand and it's gone over the stand.
06:03Six more.
06:04That's the danger if you do throw it up as a spinner here at Bristol.
06:13Goes again.
06:14Banton.
06:14Can he get there?
06:16Don't think so.
06:18No.
06:20Terrific effort.
06:20But that's another one.
06:27What an over this is for West Indies.
06:31Last ball of the 19th.
06:34There we go again.
06:35That's a monster.
06:37That's still going.
06:41That is quite an extraordinary over from West Indies.
06:45And that's been powered down the ground.
06:53Absolutely smoked.
06:54This is fantastic from West Indies.
06:58Well, Balde.
07:02Deceived.
07:03Out.
07:04Run out, I think.
07:05Good from Butler.
07:06Good from Wood.
07:08Respite.
07:09To a point for England.
07:10And you totally accept that from Romario Shepard.
07:17That's...
07:17Deep in his crease off to the offside.
07:22Slam down the ground.
07:23He's hit his first ball for six again.
07:26Two games on the spin.
07:28What an end for West Indies.
07:3016 from the last over.
07:32Against a lot of these guys.
07:33And played with quite a few.
07:34So...
07:36You kind of actually get to know a lot of...
07:37A lot of players.
07:38Not just, obviously, through international cricket.
07:40How it used to be.
07:41So...
07:41Smith goes high again.
07:46And should be out this time.
07:48Moti.
07:49Good catch.
07:50Just had to steady himself with that...
07:53Gusting wind.
07:54And the ball swirling around.
07:56He takes a good one over his left shoulder.
07:59And Jamie Smith.
08:00An early victim today.
08:08Almost a repeat of the...
08:10In the power play.
08:11Well, he's such a wonderful player.
08:21Get it!
08:22Oh!
08:23Burst through the hands.
08:24It was hit so firmly by Duckett.
08:26On that reverse hit.
08:28Again.
08:30Evan Lewis there.
08:32I think he got a hand too.
08:33It will take a look at the replay.
08:34But it's another boundary to Duckett.
08:40And Butler.
08:41As he did up at Durham.
08:43Very early on.
08:45Taking on that straight boundary.
08:47Mid-off and mid-on.
08:48Or up inside the circle.
08:50I hit his...
08:51Well, if you saw him up at Durham.
09:00Nicely done.
09:06Field is set quite square on the offside.
09:09Because Duckett's strength.
09:11Oh!
