England lead the 5 match series 1-0 after their record breaking winning run chase of 364-4 on the same Bridgetown ground.

Centuries from Jason Roy 123 (85) and Joe Root 102 (97) saw England home, after Chris Gayle had lead the charge for WIndies with 135 from 129 balls.

With another runfest in prospect, albeit on a fresh pitch, surely whoever wins the toss will insert?

It looks like England will be resting Chris Woakes as he manages a longstanding knee problem, and call up Tom Curran.

Brace yourselves for another runfest.

And a little tip for Chris Gayle - you might want to think about scoring a little faster as your 135 off 129 balls won't cut it when Roy can plunder 123 off 85.

And a little tip (as if they need it) for England batters. Hit the ball roughly in the direction of Chris Gayle and judging from the last match, you'll get a boundary :lolol:

That was funny. Standing at slip in his green sunglasses not doing much and then when a slip wasn't required, doing even less. He doesn't run much when he's batting so you can't expect him to put any effort in in the field. [emoji23]

It's a different day today... the weather is slightly overcast and breezy.

Steady start from the WIndies.... Chris Wood (looking sharp!) and Tom Curran are both on the spot and go for just a single each.

2-0 (2 overs)

Twenty behind the required rate already.

After a lot of prodding around, Chris Gayle smashes his first SIX (off his 26th ball) straight back over Moeen Ali's head.

33-0 (8 overs)
