Woakes to Dowrich, out Lbw! He's been given! That was rather straight from a length, and Dowrich reviews! He was falling across trying to glance this. Remember, he's on a pair! No bat, nothing on UltraEdge. Clipping the top of leg-stump - umpire's call! That's unfortunate, but Dowrich has to make do with a pair. Woakes, who has bowled extremely well in this Test, gets his 100th Test wicket. We're into the I0$ half of the West Indies batting. Dowrich lbw b Woakes 0(3)

Woakes to Shamarh Brooks, no run, what happened there? England celebrated a caught behind. But umpire Richard Illingworth was not convinced. They discuss about the review and decide against it. This is a typical day five delivery, rears up from back of a length and takes a chunk of the surface as well, Brooks is taken by surprise and he tries his best to get out of the way, the ball hits the back arm before lobbing to Buttler. UltraEdge shows a spike when the ball was near the glove. A missed opportunity for England

7.6
Woakes to Kraigg Brathwaite, out Lbw!! Kraigg Brathwaite has been given OUT LBW, he has a chat with his partner and he's walking. That looked close and Shai Hope sends his partner on his way - just the start England wanted, they have got rid of both openers in the hour before lunch. The nip-backer from Woakes and once again Brathwaite was caught on the shuffle - the ball burst past the inside edge and struck him on the back-pad. The impact was in front of off, was it going over? It struck Brathwaite on the knee-roll, but he's a short man. The umpire didn't think so and neither did the batsman himself. Replays show that it was umpire's call on hitting the stumps, good enough to clip the bails. Kraigg Brathwaite lbw b Woakes 12(23) [4s-1]
