Stokes gets his tenth 100 with a glorious reverse sweep.

Stokes on the charge for quick runs...
Could be fun if he stays in!

Bit of a carve up here by England. Fantastic batting though from Stokes and Sibley, not the easiest of conditions.

TMS is going downhill fast.
Tuffers is a slavering shite. Vaughan little better. Carlos Brathwaite is boring.
Bring back Boycott! (or maybe not)
Alison Mitchell is good though.

Dost my eyes deceive me? England have lost two wickets quickly and neither was Buttler? Cricket bamboozles me yet again ...

Can't believe Root robbed Stuart Broad of an opportunity to score his second test century with that declaration.
Anyway, slow pitch here. Draw is favourite here with and England win not far behind.

Windies 22 runs from safety. Shame from England's POV. They've dominated this match, but that rain has really cruelled them. If they hadn't have got on on Day One the follow on target would have been 150 and it would still be game on.
And because I mentioned my mother-in-law's illness on here, I'll let you all know she passed away.

Broad and Woakes outstanding - Send in the big hitters now, slog, get a good lead and spin them out tomorrow afternoon - simples!

England should try their luck with aggressive game tomorrow. They have sent Buttler and Stokes so let's see how it goes. Bring some excitement.

Poor Jos. It's just never going to happen for him. Tailor made situation, gone for a duck.

Condolences Hosko
This will be a draw. Root will be too conservative and not give his bowlers enough time to bowl the Windies out on a pitch that has a few demons in it, but is hardly a minefield. I think he will bat for about 20 overs, get a 300 lead, and the Windies hold on to be 6-100 at the close.

Can't believe England didn't review Brooks' glove catch, would have been Woakes' 100th test wicket as well. They have the reviews in the bank - use them!
I wonder if they are going to regret letting him get off...
