West Indies vs England, 1st T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

So that's all for this one where England have bossed the hosts. We'll be back tomorrow night for the second T20I from the same venue. Join us then, bye for now!!

Jos Buttler: Fantastic performance. Clinical from Salt and Bethell there. We know what to expect here from West Indies, we knew they'd come hard so we were only chasing wickets. Salt has been outstanding, he really enjoys playing West Indies. Sure there are even more heights he can get to. We knew they were hard to shut down in the powerplay, but Saqib Mahmood hit the right lengths and got us wickets. Fantastic place to tour, great opportunity for our younger boys to take it all in and showcase their talents.

Rovman Powell: (On the batting approach) Too early to call. Tonight it didn't come off but without our best batting performance we managed 180. We lost wickets in clusters, and that was the exact thing we wanted to avoid. Everybody likes the way we want to play, we just want to keep pushing towards playing in a direction we want to play. They need to work on their individual skills and come out here and execute. Always good playing England here in Barbados, the crowds turn up and it makes for good cricket.

Phil Salt | Player of the Match: (On West Indies getting the best out of him) I'm not sure to be honest, it is the place I'm probably the happiest. Grown up on these surfaces. Really enjoyed playing 50 over cricket but you have to adjust quickly. Need to be really specific in training. (On his off side play) I have tried a few things, opening up my grip to access different parts of the ground. (On Bethell) He is a huge talent, he doesn't seem like a 21-year old lad. He feels like a guy who's already played a 100 games, lovely feather to have in our cap.

19:57 Local Time, 23:57 GMT, 05:27 IST: A clinical chase for England as they made light work of the West Indies total. Just like the World Cup, it was Phil Salt who proved to be the match winner, as he scored his third century against this opposition to help England get over the line with more than three overs to spare. The visitors bossed the powerplay with Phil Salt doing the bulk of the scoring as he took Shamar Joseph and Motie to the cleaners. Jacks tried his bit from the other end, but he was dismissed off the last ball of the powerplay. A returning Buttler perished for a first ball duck, but that didn't stop England. Jacob Bethell joined Salt and played an innings of great poise as he scored an eye catching fifty on the ground where he has spent a bulk of his childhood. England were never in danger in this chase despite those two wickets falling close to each other, as they amassed the highest successful chase at Kensington Oval. Stick around for the presentations...

Shepherd to Philip Salt, FOUR, third T20I century for Phil Salt against West Indies!! Takes off his helmet as he completes the run and yelps in delight.

A low full toss from Romario Shepherd, Salt slams it down to long-on where there is a fumble that allows him four.

Shamar Joseph to Jacob Bethell, SIX, on a length on leg stump, Bethell shuffles in and pulls it over fine leg for a maximum. He's enjoying his time out here in the Caribbean
