Failure to qualify for the 2023 WC would've hurt the Windies, but that is past and things are looking good going into the future. They bounced back with a 2-1 series win in the ODIs and have got the winning start here tonight in the 1st T20I. The series now moves across to Grenada for the next couple of T20Is. England will be hurting from the loss here and will hope that a change of venue could bring them better luck. A short turnaround and we'll be back tomorow with all the action from the 2nd match. For now, cheers and bye..

Rovman Powell - It was a good performance. After the batting PP, we got information about how the pitch is playing and we adjusted to that. I don't think about captaincy when I'm batting, it comes only later, I just try and play my natural game. There is still room for improvement, we have to control the powerplay (with the ball), if we do that, not a lot of teams will have such power down the order and they'll be on the back-foot. We aren't thinking about the World Cup as yet, we're looking at the possible opportunities before that tournament, get our team set and then we have a good chance. 

Jos Buttler - It was always going to get harder. They adapted better, taking the pace off the ball, but we were disappointed at not getting to 200. We want to keep pushing the boundaries, but it's about finding a way to score runs, minimize the dot balls, 20-25 runs would've been ideal. The ball did get wet, had to be changed and we were up against two big hitters. There were a few positives - Phil Salt and Rehan Ahmed, obviously, they had the better big-hitters on the night.

Andre Russell | Player of the Match - Actually, life is so funny. When I got a call-up two weeks back, I was dreaming about getting a MoM award, I didn't know how it would have happen though. Since the CPL season, the wicket has been up and down, two-paced, you'll have to bowl a lot more cutters. Early on in their innings, runs were scored when there was pace. We bowled very well in the latter half. It was all about batting in pirs, we both have power (on himself and Powell), we knew we could finish off the game if we batted deep. 

22:05 Local Time, 02:05 GMT, 07:35 IST: At 123 for 6, England would've fancied their chances, but the hosts bat deep and in Powell and Russell, they had two monstrous hitters, the duo packed too much power, sent the bowlers on a leatherhunt and West Indies have completed a successful chase. England dominated the first 10 overs of the match, but the hosts pulled things back spectacularly to keep the chase within limit. Like England, their openers gave them a blistering start, King and Mayers making quickfire cameos, but England fought back through their two leg-spin twins. A rain break didn't deter them and they came back with Rehan striking twice in the 15th over. But that was as good as it got - Livingstone and Mills went for 16 edach in the 16th and the 17th over to all but seal their fate. West Indies completed the ODI series win at this historic ground and they've started the T20I leg of the series on a high note at the same venue. Stay tuned for the presentations..
