    12.2 Humphreys has two in the over, and this is a huuuuuuuugeeee wicket! Darted in on a back of a length outside off and this seems to swerve away just a smidgen. Lewis looks to hack it over cow corner and in that pursuit, loses his shape completely. Skews it off the outside half of the bat and Stirling does the rest at extra cover! 152/3
    10.3 holes out to long on, and Hope's fun for the day is over! Hard length, angling into middle and leg. Hope looks to stand tall and forehand this over long on but does not get the timing he is after. A bit of a splice and Harry Tector makes no mistake on the fence. A sprightly pace-setting knock from the WI captain comes to an end! 122/1
    12 does him all ends up, and Humphreys has something to show for his toil! Spears this in full and wide, most likely after anticipating the batter's charge. Powell has a hurried stab at it, hoping to lay some bat on ball, but fails in that pursuit. Tucker whips off the bails, and that seems like a plan that has worked an absolute charm. West Indies lose their third, and that will be that for Powell with the bat today! 151/2
    15.1 another outside edge and this time, Hetmyer does bite the dust! Seems like a googly, tossed up nicely outside off and angling further across. Hetmyer tries to fight it and swipes across the line, only managing an outside edge that loops into short third's palms! 180/4

    18.3 taken smartly on the fence, and Holder has to go! This is a slot ball on leg stump. Holder clears his front foot and swings for the hills. Cloths it a little, though, and that brings Ross Adair into play at deep mid wicket. He rushes in, keeps his eyes on the ball the entire time and completes the catch with a dive forward! 219/5

    1.1 Stirling perishes, and the slip does its job! Excellent bowling. Fullish outside off and shaping away late. Stirling is drawn into a loose drive away from his body and gets a thick outside edge. The ball floats through to Powell, who reverse-cups it near his chest. Just the start Holder would have wanted; not the start Ireland needed! 13/1
    11.6 caught on the fence, and Hosein has two in the over! Back of a length outside off. Ross looks to keep the scoring rate up with a swat over cow corner but does not generate the elevation or the power he wants. Motie settles himself on the deep mid wicket fence, stays aware of his surroundings and does the rest! 116/4
    10.5 massive lbw shout, and the finger goes up! Low full toss zipped into leg stump. Harry perhaps pre-meditates the sweep, and picks a ball that is too full to play that stroke. Misses the ball completely and gets pinned right in front. The only question was there the ball hit the batter, and once the umpire decided it was in line, it was curtains for Harry! 114/2
    11.3 goes a mile up, and Tucker falls! Dangles the carrot outside off and Tucker bites. Skips down the track, looking to go downtown but he is beaten in the air completely. Has to reach out way in front and in the end, he chalks it straight down Holder's throat at long on! 115/3
    15.1 straight down Hetmyer's throat, and Holder has his second! Back of a length delivery wide outside off. Tim goes chasing after it and even though he gets a good piece of it, he does not get the elevation to get it over Hetmyer at deep point. A slightly dodgy celebration from Holder follows, but WI, all said and done, have Ireland six down now! 151/6
    13.6 no need for the third umpire on this occasion! Even slower and perhaps a little shorter on middle stump. Hosein asks Dockrell to fetch it and even though he takes on the challenge, he comes up second-best. Arrows it towards long on, where Holder shimmies across swiftly to his left and then holds on to a sharp catch over his head. Dockrell walks back for 15, and WI hammer another nail into the Irish coffin! 139/5

    16.1 catch it is the cry, and that is exactly what Lewis does! Full outside off and to be fair to Barry, this is there to be hit. His bat face, though, just opens up too much upon contact and all he does is pick Lewis out to perfection on the deep point fence. Ireland lose another, and WI inch closer to what would be a series-clinching victory! 161/7
