- Second T20i: England, 161-3, bt West Indies, 158-8, by seven wickets
- Buttler smashes 83 off 45 balls in comfortable run chase
It’s win toss, win match in the Caribbean, as five games into this white-ball tour and all five have been won by the team for whom the coin fell.
England were the beneficiaries this time, as they won by seven wickets to take a 2-0 lead in the five-match T20 series. As the coin settled, Jos Buttler smiled, and his opposing captain Rovman Powell stuck a joking punch in his ribs. They knew how much this match, threatened by the potential for rain and starting at 4pm, rode on a matter of heads or tails.
