4.26pm So, it's the small matter of 366 for 6 from England. The star turn, once again, was the opening partnership, Amy Jones and Tammy Beaumont blazing along to a 202-run stand, just days after posting 222 in Derby. Emma Jones was unfazed at matching that tempo with her 41-ball fifty from No.3 and there were quick runs through the middle as well to keep the accelerator pressed. For West Indies, Grimmond's catches were the brightest moments. Alleyne and Ramharack, with two wickets apiece, fared better than some.

Tammy Beaumont: "A bit of a cold running through the team, I've got it at the moment. Felt horrendous out there but tried to bat for Amy. I love batting with her, so free-scoring and different strengths, taller than me, plays off the back foot. Had to deal with me acting like I had man-flu... she's flying now in that position. We might have bowled first on that wicket but wanted to test ourselves. The odd ball seamed and this rain might make it zip more."

Vish will be here for the chase shortly.
