- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.1 What a comeback for this man! First ball after a long break and takes a feather edge off Gayle's bat! Good length on middle and angling past Gayle's body. Gayle's enticed to poke at it and takes the slightest of edges off his bat. Latham safe as a church. Big wicket 40/135.2 given lbw as he misses this googly. It's a full one at middle stump. He looks to sweep and looks to be trapped in front. But this is close because that has turned a long way. Was it missing off? Possibly. Lewis looks on in hope, but he's been told they're out of reviews. That's the end of his innings. Replays show it was missing off 177/610.2 Another wicket! Or is it? Hope reviews for the caught-behind. Good length on off stump and cuts Hope in half as he tries to flick towards the leg side with the ball going between bat and trouser. Extra bounce once again and another faint edge off the inside edge of the bat. Hope's gone for a duck! 41/223.3 shouts of 'catch it' and holes out at long off! Astle gets among the wickets now. Full ball on off stump but it's the wrong'un. Tried to hit it straight over the bowler's head but it's sliced towards the off side. Simple catch for Ferguson 103/325.5 pace is pace. 142kph ball, slants in from a length outside off. Mohammed not as assured in his shot making against this one. Stabs at it in the corridor, offers a passage in and the ball kisses the inside edge first before tonking the stumps 117/430.1 Ross you beauty! He has a retirement option in mexican waves. Leaps gracefully to his right, with perfect timing, to pluck this outside edge at third slip. It's a legcutter, good length outside off. Holder gets the front leg out out of the way to try and go over mid-off, but gets a thick edge that goes up but is one of those that quickly loops down if you leap too late 134/549.5 carved inside out over cover and it looks like it's going for a six.. but no! Kane Williamson covers a lot of ground to run towards deep extra cover (from long off) and takes a sharp jumping catch on the run. Powell's useful innings has to end. Looked like a boundary off the bat but KW did extremely well. 246/937.2 won't survive this time though. Beaten on the inside edge by the googly as he stretches forward to defend. Caught on the back leg, right in front of middle stump. Looks plumb 182/743.5 short outside off and stays low this time. Straightens after pitching and takes the outside edge of the bat as he looks to push at the ball. Latham safe as ever 201/8Extras24 (lb 6, w 18)TOTAL248/9 (50 Overs, RR: 4.96)Fall of wickets: 1-40 (Chris Gayle, 10.1 ov), 2-41 (Shai Hope, 10.2 ov), 3-103 (Shimron Hetmyer, 23.3 ov), 4-117 (Jason Mohammed, 25.5 ov), 5-134 (Jason Holder, 30.1 ov), 6-177 (Evin Lewis, 35.2 ov), 7-182 (Ashley Nurse, 37.2 ov), 8-201 (Ronsford Beaton, 43.5 ov), 9-246 (Rovman Powell, 49.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR17.5 what's happening here? The off stump is broken but no one seems to be celebrating. Ok, now Nurse is rejoicing. Good length on off stump and stays slightly low as the ball skids through after pitching. Zips under Worker's attempted cut shot and crashes into off stump. A well-constructed innings comes to an end 118/216.4 soft dismissal! Good length on middle, and extra bounce does the trick this time. The ball sits up after pitching and takes the top of Munro's bat as he tries to punch off the back foot. Straight down short cover's throat 108/131.4 played on! Inside edge and onto off stump. Short outside off and he tries to punch at it. Big gap between bat and pad, and that's a gone-r. Big break through 175/337.2 traps him in front. Given out lbw, review not taken. Tries to go too square with this flick shot. Nurse has slid it in from around the wicket. It appeared close - like it might go down leg. But the umpire and batsman are convinced it's out and that's a second wicket to Nurse. And they're right, replays show that's hitting leg stump 201/443.2 caught behind! No room to play the cut but he takes it on. Holder bowls in the channel from around the wicket, and rolls his fingers on this one. Gets some grip and lift, and that's enough to take the edge as Nicholls goes after it 230/5Extras7 (lb 2, w 5)TOTAL249/5 (46 Overs, RR: 5.41)Fall of wickets: 1-108 (Colin Munro, 16.4 ov), 2-118 (George Worker, 17.5 ov), 3-175 (Kane Williamson, 31.4 ov), 4-201 (Tom Latham, 37.2 ov), 5-230 (Henry Nicholls, 43.2 ov)
