Shimron Hetmyer 20(15)
34.3
Woakes to Hetmyer, out Caught by Roy! Hetmyer departs, and I hope this isn't a signature 21st century Windies collapse! They're known to do this - accelerate, or attempt to do so, at the wrong time. Banged in on a back of a length, a tad wide, Hetmyer charges down and clubs it flat and cross-batted towards Roy at mid-off who isn't going to drop this one - not after dropping Gayle, who has gone on to add 91 more since then. Hetmyer c Roy b Woakes 20(15) [4s-2 6s-1]
34.2
Woakes to Gayle, 1 run, 24th hundred for Gayle in ODIs! Takes off the helmet, gets on his knees a little more softly than he would have a decade ago, and just keeps his bat aloft - chucks his helmet back to himself to get back into the game. The ball - short and wide, carved away square of the wicket and he just ambles across for a single. He's announced his return to ODI cricket, limited to the World Cup, but he starts with a century.
33.6
Adil Rashid to Gayle, no run, googly with a bit of air turning from outside leg, Gayle tries to turn it away, gets a loopy leading edge into the off-side - he'll have to wait

32.5

32.4
Woakes to Hetmyer, no run, fuller length and wobbled away just outside off, Hetmyer sets up for a heave across the line and gets beaten by the late drift. There was some noise as the ball went past the bat, but on replays it was crystal clear that Hetmyer had missed it by some distance. Not sure from where that sound emanated from
32.3
Woakes to Hetmyer, no run, 122kph, went fuller and flirts the tramlines, Hetmyer lets it pass thinking it would be called a wide. But it was a good call from the umpire because it was just about inside the line
32.2
Woakes to Gayle, 1 run, short of length outside off, steered to point
31.6
Plunkett to Gayle, SIX, miles in the air, fat top-edge and Gayle's heart would've been in his mouth for a second. Oh dear! What's his bat made of? It clears the ropes at third man. Gayle continues to ride his luck then. Good length delivery, tailing in and Gayle gets tied for room. Swing across and gets a top-edge which balloons up, the short third man fielder gives the chase but the breeze takes it all the way
31.3
Plunkett to Hetmyer, no run, another change of pace delivery from Plunkett, Hetmyer flat-bats it with ferocity, drops just in front of mid-on - who does a fine job of stopping it because it was hit very hard
31.3
Plunkett to Hetmyer, wide, Plunkett loses his plot and drifts it down the leg-side
31.2
Plunkett to Gayle, byes, 1 run, cutter on a short of length that grips and beats Gayle's steer. Buttler can't get his body behind the line as it awkwardly bounces in front of him. Misfields and they will steal a bye
30.6
Mark Wood to Gayle, no run, swing and a miss. Goes fuller and it moved away a touch as Gayle fails to connect with his swipe
30.4
Mark Wood to Hetmyer, SIX, third six of the over and Hetmyer joins the party. Turning out to be an unforgettable over for Wood, misses the yorker and lands it on a fuller length at the stumps. Hetmyer takes his front leg out of the way and biffs it over cow corner
30.4
Mark Wood to Gayle, 2 wides, Wood is under the pump and he ends up throwing one well outside off. Buttler fumbles as he gets an awkward bounce and it dribbles away. They will sneak an extra as well
29.6
Stokes to Hetmyer, wide, Stokes tries to outsmart the batsman but ends up over doing the bouncer. It's too high and called a wide
29.5
Stokes to Hetmyer, no run, good length and slanting away just outside off, Hetmyer is rooted to the crease and blocks it towards point
