The two remained not out in the end and helped West Indies reach 179 runs. England needed 180 runs to win the match and the series. Openers Jason Roy and Tom Banton were quick to depart in the second innings. Both were out within the powerplay. James Vince, batting at number three, played well and kept England in the hunt.
