James Anderson to Shamar Joseph
That feet wasn't going anywhere! Anderson continues to trouble the southpaw from around the wickets, on a length and just around off, Shamar Joseph is stuck in his crease and reaches out to it. Gets beaten on the outside edge.

Anderson bowls it full and angles on off, Shamar Joseph presents the full bat's face and eases it in front of Stokes at widish covers. Joseph sets off for a single, Stokes is quick to get to the ball and throws wayward at the bowler's end. A single taken.

TWO WIDES! Beats Jamie Smith as well. Angles down the leg side, it takes off from the surface and flies past the keeper to deep fine. They cross.

James Anderson to Shamar Joseph
Good effort there by Bashir! Anderson bumps it into the surface, down the leg side. Shamar Joseph misses to connect the pull shot and the ball runs down to deep fine. Shoaib Bashir runs to his left and puts in a timely dive to flick the ball before the ropes. Replays role in and confirms that he has managed to keep it inside the ropes. Two byes. 100 comes up with this for West Indies.

Gus Atkinson to Shamar Joseph
OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! A good change in length from Gus Atkinson. 11th scalp for him in this Test. Atkinson steams in from over the stumps and cannons a vicious yorker, aiming at the off-pole, Shamar Joseph clears his front leg for room to access the off side and swings the bat hard, but meets only thin air. The ball though, powers into the off-stump and uproots the peg. Atkinson kept bowling back-of-a-length deliveries and Joseph would have thought that this might also be a half-tracker, but a cunning length variation from Atkinson this. Straight into the blockhole. No 5-fer for Anderson in his last dance, but a highly likely one for Atkinson in both innings. England is just a scalp away from a clinical win.

Gus Atkinson to Jayden Seales
OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Gus Atkinson wraps up in style with a sensational 5-fer. He ends up with 12 wickets in his first Test. England clinically win by an inning and 114 runs. Gus Atkinson bends his back and bangs a short-pitched delivery on the stumps, Jayden Seales reacts quickly to the length, readies himself for the pull shot, and transfers the weight on the back foot. He does connect the shot well and pulls in the air towards the deep square leg area. However, he couldn't power away the ball over the fence and Ben Duckett stationed right on the boundary at deep square leg, judges the catch well and grabs it safely over his head. All good things do come to an end, they say! James Anderson ends his illustrious 21-year Test career on that note with 704 wickets to his name in 188 matches.
