1st Test, West Indies tour of England at Southampton, Jul 8-12 2020

Covers back on and it looks gloomy coming up to 5pm.

I would say that play is over for the day unfortunately.

Cricket can do more to play Tests in slightly poor weather

Playing in a bio bubble with empty stands and no 'Jerusalem' is strange

Something so very “cricket” about waiting for a setting sun to get brighter. What a sport

Good discipline bowling West indies.

England are 141 for 5

England recover from 87-5

West Indies have looked a little off colour since lunch. The momentum is changing just slightly with the positive intent Stokes and Buttler have brought.

Eng 154-5

Stokes 43, Buttler 33

A beauty by Kemar Roach. Absolute cracker. Stokes takes a few steps down the pitch and Roach finds movement away from the batsman. Stokes plays inside the line. Roach has been unlucky not to have picked up a wicket today.

This partnership is now worth 67.

Stokes c Dowrich b Holder 43 (Eng 154-6)

England's captain is gone.
