DROP Catch : continues

The drop

Had Kieran Powell, at slip, been able to cling on to the chance that came his way

off Carlos Brathwaite's first ball

Eoin Morgan would have been dismissed for just 4.

Perhaps Powell was unsighted by the wicketkeeper, Shai Hope

who dived to his left in an unsuccessful attempt to reach the ball,

but it seemed a relatively straightforward chance offered

when Morgan footlessly wafted a drive at one angled across him.

Instead of being out, he went on to make 107.

Shai Hope AGAIN was unable to complete a tough catch after a delivery

from Jason Mohammed turned, bounced and took Morgan's outside edge

when he had 69.

Ben Stokes, heaving a delivery from Gabriel with the wind, must have thought

he was in trouble as Kraigg Brathwaite settled to take the chance.

The ball slipped through his grasp, however,

just as he took a step back over the boundary -

and then rebounded to hit his knee with his other foot over the rope,

thereby conceding a six :-[
