West Indies v England: second men’s one-day cricket international

Key events

7th over: West Indies 23-2 ( Carty 8, Hope 3) A cheeky breeze ruffles the flags and the T-shirts of the crowd, the sky full of fluffy mottled clouds – think a reception-class collage. “A good battle between Jofra and Shai Hope” says the commentator “Jofra is disciplined, as is Hope, knowing that this might be Jofra’s last over.” And a maiden it is.

6th over: West Indies 23-2 ( Carty 8, Hope 3) Turner tidy and quick. Quite an intimidating figure actually as he runs in. Most of the crowd lightly filling the stadium seem to be Brits.

5th over: West Indies 19-2 ( Carty 5, Hope 3) A third over on the trot for Archer, accelerating into the high 80s (mph) and varying his length. Five dots.

4th over: West Indies 17-2 ( Carty 5, Hope 1) A morale-boosting boundary from Turner’s last ball, but a testing over from the young giant. West Indies defiantly not doing as Alastair Cook instructed and getting through England’s initial burst.

Turner goes around the wicket and Lewis swivels with six-hitting anticipation, but can only tipple the ball through to Salt

3rd over: West Indies 12-1 (Lewis 4, Carty 1) Archer tries to tempt Lewis with a bouncer, but he shows admirable restraint, and finishes the over with a fuller length ball that Lewis plays straight back down the pitch for a single.

2nd over: West Indies 7-1 (Lewis 0, Carty 0) King drives his second ball through the off side for four with some style, but two balls later is walking back to the dressing room. Turner raises his long arm in bouncing delight.

1st over: West Indies 1-0 (King 1, Lewis 0) Jofra Archer has the new ball, little white beads threaded through the bottom of his braids, a sleeve on his right arm, red soles on his boots. One of his trouser legs looks as if its has been chewed off at the bottom by a hungry dog. Just a single from the over.

The players are out, as is the sun, away we go.

A steaming plate of cheese on toast enters the room alongside my son, sadly none for me. Cook thinks we could see 15 overs of “heavy seam” from England to start.

Pitch watch: Carlos Brathwaite gets intimate with the batting surface – “What is a good length? Six to eight metres from the popping crease. What Jaydon Seales did really well is get from being defensive at eight metres to being attacking a six metres.”

Jason Holder and Alastair Cook both agree that West Indies need to get through this initial burst from England.

A twelfth ODI loss in 18 matches? “Not where England is at”

One change for West Indies too, Shamar Joseph makes his debut, Alzarri Joseph takes a rest.

Alastair Cook says that this England size looks much better balanced.

England won the toss and will field

Liam Livingstone calls correctly!

Preamble

Hello and welcome to match two of this white-ball series, sliced into the schedules like a piece of processed cheese. An eight wicket defeat wasn’t how England would have chosen to start their three ODI and five T20 Caribbean adventure but on they plug, at least Jordan Clark, Dan Mousley, Jamie Overton and John Turner now have an ODI under their belts.

West Indies outgunned England in almost every area after Shai Hope won the toss, with the returning Evin Lewis a hurricane force success with the bat, and West Indies knocking off a revised target with 55 ball remaining.

Today we return to the Sir Vivian Richards stadium, North Sound, Antigua – with an early 9.30am start Antiguan time (1.30pm GMT).
