Cricket: England opted for a rather hopeful LBW review after the ball struck West Indies captain Rovman Powell on the bicep.
England review LBW, after ball hits arm | 00:49England have ticked the first main box in their pursuit for a semi-final spot , chasing down the West Indies’ target of 181 with eight wickets in hand.
Conversely, the Windies will need a bit of luck in addition to wins over the same two countries if they are to advance beyond the Super 8 stage. 82 runs without loss at the halfway mark of their innings, and the West Indies looked set to absolutely launch towards a total beyond 200. From there, the it was a mixture of wickets and boundaries that saw the West Indies eventually finish on 4/180 at the innings end, with Sherfane Rutherford and Romario Shephard finishing with red ink.
“That came because of a brilliant over to Jofra Archer – the 16th over of the innings when he bowled four or five pinpoint Yorkers to Nicholas Pooran and eventually dismissing him.”Salt was handed a life on seven when he was dropped by keeper-captain Pooran in the third over of the innings – with a tough edge off the toe of the bat slipping out of the gloves.
“That’s excellent awareness and bowling from Roston Chase … that was 15 kilometres per hour quicker than the previous delivery; pushed it out of the front of the hand, and the West Indies have got the big scalp of Jos Buttler for 25,” – former English test cricket Ian Ward said on commentary.
