Tea England 416 and 116 for 1 (Duckett 61*, Pope 48*) lead West Indies 457 (Hodge 120, Da Silva 82*, Athanaze 82, Woakes 4-84) lead by 75 runs

Zak Crawley, dismissed for a duck in the first innings, managed 3 before his freak run out at the non-striker’s end in the second over of England’s second innings. Duckett drove heartily back towards bowler Jayden Seales, who thrust out a hand on his follow through and the ball deflected off his fingers as Crawley was backing up, his bat still in the air as the stumps were broken.

Duckett raised his fifty from 55 balls with a trio of sweeps off consecutive deliveries from Kevin Sinclair, in front of square, top-edged through fine leg and then behind square to add to his quick-fire 71 in the first innings. Pope had struck six fours on his way to 48 not out at the interval.

Da Silva remained unbeaten on 82, having added fifty runs to his overnight score, when Shamar Joseph fell on the final ball of an extended first session for 33 off 27 balls, the pair putting on 71 runs off 78 for the 10th wicket.

Chris Woakes found plenty of swing to lead the bowling for England with three wickets for the day, including two in as many balls, to finish with 4 for 84.

West Indies would have been thrilled with in improved batting performance, led by a century for Kavem Hodge and Alick Athanaze’s 82 on the second day, which gave them some hope of levelling the series after an innings defeat at Lord’s. But, after further encouragement with Crawley’s dismissal, they may well be disappointed with their failure to capitalise.

England bowled just one over with the second new ball on Friday evening but under far cloudier skies, it took just 15 deliveries on Saturday morning for Woakes to break through, Jason Holder ending a torrid stay of 27 runs in 76 balls when he prodded at one outside off stump and was caught behind.

Sinclair survived a run out chance when Pope’s shy at the stumps from short cover went wide but he was gone soon after, thanks to Harry Brook’s lightning reaction at gully off Gus Atkinson.

Alzarri Joseph was put down by Ben Stokes, running in from cover, on 7 off the bowling of Atkinson, but Woakes claimed two wickets in as many balls when he had Alzarri Joseph chasing a wide one outside off stump and feathering to keeper Jamie Smith then bowled Seales for a first-ball duck.

Shamar Joseph survived the hat-trick ball to support Da Silva, who had taken it slowly through the first 90 minutes of the day but brought up his fifty in emphatic style, using Mark Wood’s pace to guide the ball over the fence at deep extra cover.

Da Silva took another six off Wood over deep third to move West Indies past the 400-mark, then Shamar Joseph drew his side level with England’s first-innings 416 by thrashing Atkinson for six in front of square. He sent broken roof tiles raining down onto spectators sitting in the stands below at backward square leg next and threaded four through fine leg to take 16 off the over and West Indies 10 in front.

Da Silva amassed 18 runs off one Joe Root over with three consecutive fours followed by a heave over long-on for six, his third maximum of the innings.

Wood, who had left the field late on day two suffering cramp after a lightning fast four-over spell in the morning followed by 10 more overs of hard, fast graft, snared the wicket that had eluded him when Shamar Joseph sent a leading edge high to mid-on, Atkinson snaffling the catch to give Wood figures of 20-4-71-1.
