Published : Jul 28, 2020 12:30 IST
Hello and welcome to highlights of Day five of the third Test between England and West Indies at Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester.
- Result: England 369 & 226/2 dec; West Indies 197 & 129 - England won by 269 runs.
- What a moment and what a series for Stuart Broad. He was dropped for the first Test, expressed his disappointment and when came back, he just breezed through the batting line-up. West Indies went downhill from the second Test and started on a wrong note in the series decider. The batsmen lacked application and succumbed under pressure. England, meanwhile, rode on solid contributions from Ben Stokes, Dom Sibley and even the skipper Joe Root coming good in the final Test. So cricket marked a returned after the forced COVID-19 break and it's England who wins the Wisden Trophy and it will remain with them forever, as it's going to be retired after the series. That's all for now and we will bring you more Live action as the weeks unfold. Till then it's goodbye!

- England 369 & 226/2 dec; West Indies 197 & 87/5 after 26 overs (Roston Chase 7, Jermaine Blackwood 4) Just a single from Archer's over and West Indies batsmen have to just occupy the crease. Sounds simple, but it's tough out there against a quality bowling attack.
- England 369 & 226/2 dec; West Indies 197 & 86/5 after 25 overs (Roston Chase 7, Jermaine Blackwood 3) Woakes continues to impress with his line and is getting the ball to nip back in after pitching around middle.

Stumps Day 4- England 369 & 226/2 dec; West Indies 197 & 10/2 after 6 overs Needs 389 runs (Kraigg Brathwaite 2, Shai Hope 4)
After taking eight wickets in the match so far, Stuart Broad has frustratingly been left stuck on 499 Test scalps for at least 40 hours thanks to Monday’s washout. He can attain the magical 500th wicket if play resumes today. More on that here -
The weather gods intervened to give a shaky West Indies batting lineup a breather, with a day's play completely washed out. Needing 389 runs to win with eight wickets in hand, Holder & Co. will be relieved to hold fort just for one day, but will have to channel the zen of the likes of Pujara to actually manage a favourable result. AOur correspondents discuss strategies for Day 5 and look at what lies ahead for the incredibly deep English bench.
