00:00It's a lovely angle there, Joe Root.

00:09Kimar Roach very wide of the crease and just angled towards Leg Stump and he knocks it away.

00:18It's usually the pace on the ball.

00:24It's an offside field so not much to beat.

00:27As soon as it drifts into Leg Stump, it's picked off. It's picked off well.

00:43Not missing out there, Joe Root.

00:47Cheer for his local crowd.

00:50Jason Holder-Bold, really well on that first spell.

00:55Long spell. Just wondering what the thinking is.

01:01Listen to Mikey and the shoot. Young Leg Spinner. Give him a go.

01:08Give him a go.

01:18He's not going to miss out there either.

01:22Still got a handy lead.

01:23Drifting onto middle and leg and he gets another boundary route.

01:35He's drifting into his legs.

01:44Plays it so well through there.

01:49Cool. Straight on the shin.

01:51Popped up the ball trying to jump over.

01:52Out.

02:04It's very square.

02:06Ball wins.

02:07Keep their legs into the peak.

02:09Easy.

02:11Leggies.

02:12Toppies.

02:14Oh that's gloss.

02:18Oh yes.

02:21And he's reviewed it straight away.

02:25Impact is in line Ravi.

02:27And...

02:28Missing. Wow!

02:30Tell you when you're on screen, Ravi.

02:32On screen now.

02:34This is going to be a crucial day

02:36and probably coming up is the most crucial session of that day.

02:41England currently lead by two.

02:43They're three down for 171 in their second innings.

02:46It'll be Root and Milan starting any moment now.

02:50Still some very good batting to come.

02:51All sorts of debate as to what a good lead will be.

02:55But there should be some enthralling cricket here today.

03:02How many more?

03:03Only another four-hand. That brings up his half century.

03:09Well, Root will take them.

03:13I think this is a false shot.

03:17Half an hour to get off the mic, Joe Root.

03:19He said they're very, very careful.

03:21A bit of luck.

03:30On his home ground, so he knows the big, this is the pitch.

03:35Also survived an LBW.

03:39Survived on review.

03:42But 11-4s.

03:44Well, bold.

03:49That's the sort of delivery you want for Joe Root.

03:55Good shot.

03:56Very good shot.

03:57Well-timed.

04:00Usual story.

04:02Difficult to stop anything going down that hill.

04:04The partnership.

04:09Move the score from 94 for three.

04:13Root is 62.

04:16The LBW 27.

04:17Very wide of the crease going for the Yorker.

04:24Ends up a full toss.

04:26Joe Root does not miss out.

04:29Well, from Root's point of view, it's close to being a good delivery.

04:32Good idea.

04:33Wide, angled in.

04:35Try and hit the, sort of, batsman's foot marks, as it were, where the, you know, the crease itself.

04:40That's the perfect Yorker length, pretty much, maybe a couple of inches fuller.

04:44But just got it wrong, but beautifully put away.

04:54The way, what will win?

04:58That's one of those dives where you know you're just not getting there.

05:01The ball's winning.

05:05Again, it's the angle from Root that encourages the shot.

05:08Root does time these well.

05:11He knew he wasn't going to get there, didn't he?

05:16If that were a swimming pool, he mistimed the turn.

05:23Short ball.

05:25And caught eventually.

05:27Somehow he grabbed it again.

05:30And the England captain's gone.

05:32That had gone down.

05:34It's an awkward delivery, just made awkward by the height, especially.

05:38Went straight to him.

05:38Should have been taken first time.

05:41In the end, doesn't matter which time it's taken, as long as it is taken by Shea Hope.

05:45But West Indies do have that breakthrough.

05:48And of the two, they'd rather it was Joe Root who had to go.

05:53He is on his own.

05:53He's on his own.

05:54He's on his own.

05:55He's on his own.

05:56He's on his own.

05:57He's on his own.

05:58He's on his own.

05:59He's on his own.

06:00He's on his own.

06:01He's on his own.
