    0.4 Starc celebrates his 50th ODI, with a wicket in the first over! Full temper in the channel, 144.5ks, nibbles away a touch outside off. Charles has another reckless leaden-footed slash and nicks it to captain Smith at second slip. Chest-high catch. Easily done 0/1
    8.1 Starc takes down Fletcher, wins the battle, and roars! Short and angling away outside off, prancing delivery. Gets big on Fletcher and opens him up. The opener has a feeble waft and spoons a catch to Marsh at gully. WI three down 31/3
    7.2 Bravo now nicks off. What an emphatic riposte. What a catch from Steven Smith at wide-ish slip. The extra bounce undid Bravo. The line is around off. Back of a length kicks up, angling away, finds the edge. Slip dives full-stretch to his right and comes out with the ball in his right hand 29/2
    49.6 No, he is dismissed off the last ball of WI's innings. What a reception for him! Full and outside off, Samuels swings and ends up slicing a catch to sweeper cover 282/8

    42.4 Back of a length and veers in, Ramdin aims for a roundhouse swipe across the line and does not connect. Timbaah! Ramdin acknowledges a cheers as he walks back. Starc finally finds a way past this pair. The quick hit the top of middle 223/4
    46.3 The short ball pins down Pollard. Leaping ball outside off, quicker one from Boland. Pollard, looking to pull, drags it from outside off. Marsh runs to his right and takes it comfortably at deep midwicket 247/5
    48.4 great reply from Boland. Pinpoint yorker on off, dips under the bat and tilts the middle stump back. Some more reward for Boland at the death 269/6
    49.1 Holder holes out! Looks like the back of the hand legcutter. Full and outside off. Holder attacks it and ends up slicing it straight into the lap of sweeper cover 274/7

    5.1 first ODI wicket for Gabriel, and it's a peach to get Khawaja. Angles a length ball across after all those deliveries on the pads, and is rewarded immediately. This was bowled at an angle where Khawaja simply had to play, and he made the mistake of playing with an angled bat as the thin edge is well pouched by Ramdin, diving to his right. Joy for West Indies. They're delighted as Gabriel is mobbed by his team-mates. Two in two! 35/2
    4.3 uppish and there's the first wicket. Finch is clearly hustled for pace as he hops back to whip it to square leg. He had to fetch the ball from outside off as the extra bounce means the ball lobs off the leading edge to mid-on. Brathwaite is pumped as he leaps in joy to celebrate that. So the bowling change has worked for the hosts! 35/1
    41.4 that's the wicket West Indies were longing for. Smith doesn't even wait to see what the third umpire has to offer. It was a full toss which Marsh whipped to wide long-on. A second didn't look on but they decided to chance their luck, and unfortunately it didn't work this time. Darren Bravo fired the throw at the bowler' end on the bounce, and Benn collected that cleanly before swiftly dislodging the bails to beat Smith's desperate full-length dive. Is that the breakthrough that turns it around for West Indies? The game is back in the balance 221/4
    18.3 soft, soft dismissal! Bailey falls, three balls after the drinks break. Length ball, drifts in on off, grips in the surface, and turns away. Bailey is left searching for a leg-side flick. Instead, he plops a leading edge into the lap of KP at short extra cover 99/3
