West Indies vs England at North Sound West Indies - Page 3

Harry Brook: I had to give myself a little time today, the surface was a bit two-paced. Especially batting from the far end it was tough. We have worked quite hard, we have been practicing on tough surfaces which have spun. We had a poor world cup, it felt nice to get a good score today, from both an individual and team point of view. We have to bowl well, change it here and there and I think we will be good.

WI: 25-0 after 3 overs

2.6 Sam Curran to Athanaze, FOUR, lovely! Full ball outside off, Athanaze plants his front foot across and square drives it through point to pick up another boundary. That was pleasing to the eye

4.1 Sam Curran to Athanaze, FOUR, poor ball and duly punished! Fine leg was brought up and he bowls a full ball on the pads.

WI: 26-0 after 4 overs

WI: 37-0 after 6 overs

5.5 Gus Atkinson to Athanaze, FOUR, short and width on offer, Athanaze cashes in and cuts it past the right of backward point to pick up another boundary

6.2 Sam Curran to Brandon King, FOUR, just past the outstretched hand of the keeper! Back of a length ball outside off, Brandon King throws his bat at it and gets a thick outside edge. Buttler dives to his right but the ball flies past him. Strange to see that there's no slip in place

14.1 Brydon Carse to Athanaze, FOUR, fifty for Athanaze! Shortish ball outside off, Athanaze rides the bounce and plays a cracking cut shot through backward point for a rocketing boundary. He raises his bat and gets a good round of applause from the crowd. He has looked good and would want to carry on

WI: 79-0 after 14 overs

14.3 Brydon Carse to Athanaze, FOUR, well played! Short ball, no sharpness on it, Athanaze pulls it over mid-wicket and beats the man in the deep to his right

14.4 Brydon Carse to Athanaze, FOUR, Athanaze is finding the gaps brilliantly! He cuts this one expertly past backward point. Third man is square but he has no chance to cut it off. Opened the face of the blade at the last moment to find the gap
