The Three Lions continued to showcase their brilliance at home. Kick starting the day in a splendid fashion, Harry Brook quickly raced towards his fifty before being dismissed.

Keeper Jamie Smith too looked in deft touch with the bat. He slammed 70 runs from 199 runs to help the hosts post 371 runs on the board and have a lead of 250 runs. For the West Indies, Jayden Seales was impressive with his four-fer while Jason Holder and Gudakesh Motei bagged two wickets a piece.

At stumps on Day 2, West Indies are left reeling with a mere score of 79/6 with keeper Joshua Da Silva on the crease.
