    12.2 Gayle goes to repeat the launch, looking to shoot over long-on, but was through the shot way too early, stopping on it, and sending an easy catch to Anderson who clings on at mid-on 67/2

    8.2 Smith is gone, and that was a loose slash outside off stump. It was short and wide, and there to be clobbered, but Smith rushed the stroke and instead feathered the simplest of edges through to Prior. An important breakthrough for England 50/1

    47.3 an attempted yorker slips, too high, and clatters into the pad. A big shout goes up, and the umpire has to give it; that would have hit middle-and-off halfway up 257/4

    5.1 gone! Poor stroke. It was wide, he went after it and tried to loft it over mid-off's head but couldn't quite clear Edwards, who timed his jump perfectly 23/1

    12.6 nothing loose there! That's a massive wicket, and once again, Pietersen was looking to come forward. In the end he yorked himself as he looked to whip through midwicket. Full credit to Rampaul who held his nerve, and his length 64/3

    25.4 plumb as you like, and West Indies do like - that's a very big wicket for them. Collingwood trapped straight, the ball pitching on off and coming back and would have rocked middle 117/5

    36.3 oh dear. Yardy, looking for the big shot over midwicket, mistimes this pull and skies it to deep midwicket who doesn't move a muscle, taking a simple catch 171/6

    41.2 fuller length, not quite a yorker. Sidebottom crouches and, with a keen eye, steers out to point. They aimed for a quick single but the third umpire shows a squeakingly close decision. Excellent work from Dwayne Smith and its all over bar the self-indulgent guitar solo 195/9

    45.6 full length outswinger, Anderson is drawn into the stroke, and the thin edge is pouched by Denesh Ramdin. West Indies have won a handsome victory, as Edwards strikes with the final ball of his spell. Excellent effort from him, both here and at Lord's 217/10
