Ben Stokes was the star as soon as once more as England secured a tense victory over the West Indies to degree the collection at 1-1.
On the morning of the final day, Stokes pounded out a quickfire 78 not out to construct a 311-run lead earlier than England dismissed the Windies for 198 with an hour to spare.

Jermaine Blackwood and Shamarh Brooks threatened to snuff out England’s surge to the road by placing on a 100-run stand, till Stokes broke by way of with the ball.
After an extended spell of aggressive short-pitched bowling, the all-rounder drew a mistake from Blackwood within the final over of the afternoon.
The victory leaves the collection completely poised at 1-1 forward of the ultimate check at Previous Trafford later this week.
