Looks overcast. There was rain early this morning if I'm not mistaken. I started watching from about 5pm.

With so many wickets, dare we call it honours even.

Actually nice to see low scoring matches. Let's see what happens tomorrow.

Stokes bowled off a no ball

ENG 128/7

England's lead is negligible but in the context of this match, it might as well be 200. Windies going to need to pull finger in their second dig...
