Earlier in the game, England led by John Turner, launched their attack perfectly, dismissing both West Indies openers early and leaving the hosts struggling at 12/2. However, Keacy Carty and captain Shai Hope rose to the challenge, stabilizing the innings with a composed yet brisk 143-run partnership.

Despite a couple of promising partnerships thereon, England faced setbacks with the dismissals of their set batters, Phil Salt for 59 and Jacob Bethell soon after reaching his maiden half-century. These wickets gave the West Indies a glimmer of hope to break through further. However, Liam Livingstone and Sam Curran responded with a commanding 140-run stand, with Livingstone notching his first ODI century and Curran adding a crucial half-century. Although Matthew Forde claimed Curran's wicket |
Chasing a formidable target of 329, England and Phil Salt set out with clear intent, with Salt finding his rhythm straight away.

0.0 : As many as 9 bowling options including himself were used by Livingstone but as a unit, they could not limit the damage in a fashion they would have liked.

Dropped when was on 60 by Salt, Hope made the most of that life as he went on to score his 17th ODI ton. After reaching the landmark, he shifted gears and after his departure, Forde did what was asked o |
