• England win by four wickets with seven balls remaining
England beat West Indies by four wickets at Gros Islet in the first game of the three-match T20 international series. Despite a late wobble when Joe Denly and Sam Billings fell in quick succession, England got home by four wickets and with seven balls remaining.
Denly was caught by Nicholas Pooran at deep square leg off Jason Holder for 30 before Billings was bowled by Sheldon Cottrell’s slower ball for 18. But Tom Curran soon hit the winning runs.
