- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 good catch at point from Roston Chase, clinging on to a low one, just centimetres off the turf. This was shortish and wide from Russel, and Taylor slashes it right to Chase. He'd hit it well though, so the fielder has to react quickly. He completes the catch, keeps his hands above the turf, and Kensington Oval celebrates 3/17.5 Gous tries to repeat the Jones six, but holes out to midwicket instead. This was another back of a length ball, but tight into the stumps, and Gous is sliiightly late on the shot. Instead of hitting it over wide long on, he miscues it high towards deep midwicket, who comes in off the boundary about 15 metres to take that catch with comfort. Alzarri has made a good comeback this over. 60/36.3 big shout and given! This looked very out on first viewing, but Kumar has reviewed pretty quickly. This was looped up on off stump, and Kumar went for a reverse sweep, but the ball dipped beneath the shot and hit Kumar low on the front pad. Kumar did feel the ball on his glove, but that was AFTER it hit his pad. And the projection shows three reds, the ball hitting him in front of off, and crashing into off. Much needed breakthrough for West Indies. 51/29.1 through him like a arrow through chiffon. This is nicely flighted, and beats Aaron Jones' big sweep, and takes out his leg stump. Any top spinner would be happy to beat a batter in the air like that. Tossed it up, tempted him into the shot, then dipped the ball beneath the bat. Jones was looking dangerous. 65/413.2 Anderson goes! Chase nails him in front with a quick delivery, This was headed to middle and leg I think. Anderson was rooted to the crease trying to work this to leg, and is struck on the back pad in front of the stumps. The umpire didn't take long to decide. 88/517.2 terrible miscommunication. Both batters end up at the striker's end, and that's an easy run out for Motie and Russell. this was a fullish ball flicked to short fine who took it on the bounce. Milind had raced through to the other end while van Schalkwyk was still ball watching. Motie - the short fine leg - threw it to Russell who had ages to take the bails off 112/713.3 another one for CHase, and he's on a hat trick. This was slower through the air, pitched outside off to leftie Harmeet. He tries to push this straight but it takes the outside edge and floats up to Charles at point, who accepts it at about shoulder-height. USA falling away after their strong powerplay. 88/617.4 van Shcalkwyk has holed out now. This is a slowish back of a length ball, angled across, slightly wide of the stumps, He tries to crash it through the offside, but only provides a straightforward catch to deep point 112/818.5 catching practice for Pooran. This was a slower, back of a length ball outside off stump. Kenjige tries to get inside the line and scoop this over the keeper, but ends up getting it high on the bat and the ball loops up for a simple catch for wicketkeeper Pooran. 125/919.5 holes out to long on, where Rovman Powell takes an outstanding running, diving catch. This was hard length and Netravalkar tried to bang it down the ground. Does not connect properly though, and it hangs in the air long enough for Powell to make a big charge, and intercept it centimetres above the turf. 128/10Extras7 (nb 1, w 6)TOTAL128 all out (19.5 Overs, RR: 6.45)Fall of wickets: 1-3 (Steven Taylor, 1.2 ov), 2-51 (Nitish Kumar, 6.3 ov), 3-60 (Andries Gous, 7.5 ov), 4-65 (Aaron Jones, 9.1 ov), 5-88 (Corey Anderson, 13.2 ov), 6-88 (Harmeet Singh, 13.3 ov), 7-112 (Milind Kumar, 17.2 ov), 8-112 (Shadley van Schalkwyk, 17.4 ov), 9-125 (Nosthush Kenjige, 18.5 ov), 10-128 (Saurabh Netravalkar, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.6 Holes out at wide long-on! Charles went for the slog on this delivery tossed up on the stumps, but he couldn't clear Milind Kumar in the deep. He had both feet in the air as he grabbed it above head height and he does well to balance on his back leg as he landed just inside the boundary rope. Good catch and Charles' struggles come to an end 67/1Extras6 (lb 1, w 5)TOTAL130/1 (10.5 Overs, RR: 12)Fall of wickets: 1-67 (Johnson Charles, 6.6 ov)
