7.28pm That's a wrap from Cardiff. What a remarkable match that was. Vish's report is waiting here for you. From Miller, Shashwat and Sudeep, good night!

7.19pm Time for the presentations. Guess who's Player of the Match?

Joe Root: "From being 2 for 2, nice to get over the line, and finish the series off. Tricky wicket, bowlers always felt in the game, good to be there at the end. Managed situations, Alzarri bowled exceptionally well, but a couple of important partnerships throughout, Jacks was exceptional, showed maturity in a postion that he's not played in a lot, he should be extremely proud.

"I'd like to think there's enough to keep that motivation [to be at 2027 World Cup]. When you've got that fire in your belly, you keep scoring and contributing. Harry Brook has come in and put his stamp on things, would be easy to revert back but he wants to lead the team in a certain way, and went out to play in that way in a successful powerplay."

Shai Hope: "That position at 30-35 over mark, we should have got 30-40 more runs, but commend the bowlers, they fought to the end. We felt wickets were the key, was difficult to restrict."

Harry Brook: "He's only getting better with age, amazing to have him in the side. It didn't go our way at the start, bowlers bowled amazing to create those chances, on another day they stick. I want players who can manipulate the field and Jacks can score hundreds. To have a proper batter at 7 is key. The boys work really well today, and showed in our performance. Willing to fight for each other. Great to get a series win in the first one."

7.07pm Incredible knock from an incredible player. Stamina, poise and shot selection, even a rare outing of Root's power game. Everything came together in a masterful run-chase. He had key support from Harry Brook at the start and Will Jacks through the middle, before Adil Rashid provided the calm head needed to close it out without fuss.

West Indies toiled, and Alzarri Joseph fizzed with raw pace and aggression, but they came to rue some odd options through the middle overs, and a lack of another specialist quick. What might have been in that double whammy early in the piece however, when Root was reprieved lbw and Brook dropped in the space of two balls. Four down in the powerplay and this would have been over.

Saifi: "This innings of Joe Root reminds me Ross Taylor's brilliant match winning knock of unbeaten 181 against England"

OxTiger: "14 unused balls! That has come back to bite WI in the back."

And West Indies have been penalised for a slow over-rate, an extra man inside the ring
