West Indies have been buried under a mountain of runs. Contrary to expectations, the thick covering of grass did not really help the West Indies seamers, making for a superb batting track. West Indies didn't help themselves by bowling poor lines and lengths. It is bright and sunny and the pitch might just break down and bring the spinners into play as the afternoon wears on, meaning batting may get harder. If West Indies are to win this one, they will have to register their highest successful chase in ODIs, and in potentially difficult conditions. Never before have they chased down more than 300 to win an ODI, but could today be their first? Join us in a bit to find out.
