- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.4 bowled him! Pitched it up, Anderson, and Gayle stepped outside leg to crack him square of the wicket and inside-edged that into his stumps 13/112.1 ohh it's up in the air, Smith trying to smack this over long-on but he's mistimed it and Yardy's running to his left from long-on...he dives forward and takes an excellent catch 115/310.1 a maiden international wicket for Mascarenhas, and it's Mr Immoveable himself! Chanderpaul went for the big swing into the leg-side, the shot was on as the ball was short, but Cook dived forward superbly and belied his reputation for ropey fielding with a fine take. Another fine innings comes to an end 97/218.2 a touch of swing into Samuels' pads cracks this aerially down to long-on, but he's timed it too well and Mascarenhas jogs to his left, taking a very fine running catch - juggling it as he does so 199/613.2 got him this time! Fired down the leg side again by Yardy, Bravo tries to flick him over the top but is beaten by a touch of spin. Prior skips to his right and stumps him slickly and easily 131/417.3 ah but he tries it again and well bowled Broad. Again short, again wide and Ramdin falls for the trap, uppercutting it...but straight down to Mascarenhas at third man who shuffled to his right to swallow a simple catch 190/518.6 he's absolutely hammered this but straight into the non-striker's stumps. The ball ricochets a metre or so from Sidebottom who walks over and lifts out the stumps, one by one. How unlucky can you get? 204/719.3 goddim! Swinging into Sammy who tries to hit this into France, but completely misses it and loses his off stump 206/8Extras16 (b 1, lb 5, nb 1, w 9)TOTAL208/8 (20 Overs, RR: 10.4)Did not bat: DBL PowellFall of wickets: 1-13 (Chris Gayle, 1.4 ov), 2-97 (Shivnarine Chanderpaul, 10.1 ov), 3-115 (Devon Smith, 12.1 ov), 4-131 (Dwayne Bravo, 13.2 ov), 5-190 (Denesh Ramdin, 17.3 ov), 6-199 (Marlon Samuels, 18.2 ov), 7-204 (Dwayne Smith, 18.6 ov), 8-206 (Daren Sammy, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 the lack of pace does the trick. Cook picked the length but not the speed, and tried to smear this over midwicket. Instead he got a leading edge, and Dwayne Bravo took a fine swirling chance at point 40/14.6 slower ball, and that's scooped straight up into the air! Pace is bunk, is the message from this match 48/27.5 full and straight, and that's gone! Tried to flick that through the leg side, but played all around it and lost his leg stump. A tough situation in which to make a debut, but at least he's off the mark. More chances will come this week, I'm sure 69/39.1 ouch! Pietersen is run out, and looked like he had done himself a serious damage when he leapt into the crease. Almost over-stretched his knee, but was able to walk off without much problem 78/419.5 bashed down the ground for a couple. Collingwood races back, but the throw from Dwayne Smith is quick and accurate, replays confirming Collingwood's fate 192/710.5 oh and he's got him! Shah was late onto that, trapped in front - they scamper through for a single and the umpire, belatedly, raises his finger 90/512.2 that is a dreadful, sad little stroke, patting this wide ball straight to Morton at short third-man 101/6Extras16 (b 1, lb 8, w 7)TOTAL193/7 (20 Overs, RR: 9.65)Fall of wickets: 1-40 (Alastair Cook, 4.2 ov), 2-48 (Matt Prior, 4.6 ov), 3-69 (Jonathan Trott, 7.5 ov), 4-78 (Kevin Pietersen, 9.1 ov), 5-90 (Owais Shah, 10.5 ov), 6-101 (Dimitri Mascarenhas, 12.2 ov), 7-192 (Paul Collingwood, 19.5 ov)
