England win by five wickets with three balls to spare. Owais Shah batted superbly to guide them home ... that's all from us. We will be back on Sunday with the first ODI from Lord's ... rain permitting. Join us then. Goodnight.

Gayle to Shah, 2 runs, Shah smacks it down the ground to long-on, Mascarenhas races back and beats a poor throw

And Gayle steps into the breach. A buzz goes around the ground.
