Trail by 109

The 310 runs they'd need in this innings to get there looks a long way off at the moment.

Burns is beaten again at the end of the over.

The slip fielders are loving what they're seeing.

I'll tell you, I wanted the West Indies to carry on batting into Day 4 or at least get a lead of 150 to give the bowlers as much room for error as possible. But, I can't complain. Over to Roach and co.

Dom Bess, who wouldn't look out of place in a boy band with his closely shaven sides and messy top, has an arm guard on in the dressing room.

It looks like he will be the nightwatchman. Pretty sure he'll be quite happy for these seven minutes to fly by.

Close of play - Eng 15-0
