10.20pm Right, that's all from us tonight. Join us on Thursday for the 2nd T20i in Grenada!

10.19pm Jos Buttler, not for the first time on this trip, is scrabbling for some positives by way of lessons to learn. "From the position we were in, we were looking for a score of 200," he says, after England relinquished a strong position of 77 for no loss at the end of the Power Play before falling to 171 all out with three deliveries to go in their innings.

"We want to keep pushing the boundaries and trying to be as positive as we can. But it's about finding ways to keep scoring in that manner. Getting those extra 20, 25 runs in an unfashionable way."

10.15pm As expected, Andre Russell is your player of the match: "Life is so funny. Since when I got selected for the West Indies team I've dreaming from two weeks now. I was dreaming of being man of the match."

Curran to Russell, FOUR, Yep, one ball. Short, wide, Russell carves gloriously over backward point and West Indies win by 4 wickets with 11 deliveries to spare. That's now the highest successful chase at this ground and surely a player of the match gong on its way to Russell after his career-best 3 for 19 prior to this finishing cameo

Sam Curran on for what should be the last over (ball?) of the innings...

END OF OVER:
18 | 11 Runs | WI: 168/6 (4 runs required from 12 balls, RR: 9.33, RRR: 2.00)

Rashid to Russell, no run, New ball, bit of turn but short enough for Russell to hang back and pat it on the head into the leg side

Nikhil : "WI bats so deep, they will always be favorite in the shortest format. "

Rashid to Russell, SIX, Googly, definitely... and smeared high over midwicket! Picked out of the hand, sent out of the ground as it bounces on top of the scoreboard and races away into the Barbados night
