England vs West Indies LIVE: T20 World Cup latest score and updates

“It’s been a long time since I last played. We were quietly confident. It was really nice to be back out there and take a few wickets.

“I had a really good summer, played a lot of cricket for Sussex and in the Hundred. I think the pitch looks ok - we knew we had to be on our A-Game from ball one. We were relentless from ball one.

On Moeen Ali bowling four straight to start the innings: “You look at the match-ups at the start - Mo was bowling really well. It was a great decision from Eoin Morgan.”

Ravi Rampaul has a hopeless heave at a big leg-break from Adil Rashid and looks back to see the Zing bails flashing - that’s that for a horrible batting performance for the West Indies.

Rashid finishes with absurd figures of four for two from 2.2 overs, and England are in disbelief - they’ll need just 56 to get their campaign off to a perfect start.

Tymal Mills has essentially returned to the England set-up on the back of his ability to bowl more economically than just about anyone else in the death overs but he’ll be done and dusted for the evening, barring some grotesque with the bat from England, inside 15 overs today.

He finishes well, whispering sweet nothings in the ear of off stump as he beats Ravi Rampaul with a brisk length ball but frustrated to have not knocked it back. Rampaul adds one more to the tally from Mills’ final ball, and the left-armer will finish up with figures of 2-17 from his four. Quite the competitive return to an England shirt.

Ravi Rampaul is the last man and he just about survives Rashid’s bid for three on the spin, the ball just evading his outside edge as Jos Buttler hollers his approval.

Ironic cheers from the crowd as the burly Rampaul pulls a single to the leg-side to bring up 50.

Obed McCoy is gone now! Like Grampa Abe from the Simpsons, McCoy strides in, tosses his hat on the hanger and collects it on his way out as he also finds long-on with a dreadful drive for the briefest of stays.

Jason Roy follows his opening partner’s lead with a calm, comfortable catch and Adil Rashid is on a hat-trick...

EIGHT! Adil Rashid has another with the first ball of an over.

Kieron Pollard has had enough prodding and extends the arm through a tossed-up ball from Rashid, but it’s a nasty connection that settles in the safe hands of Jonny Bairstow at long-on.

West Indies are at least beyond the 45 they made against England in St Kitts in 2019. Scant consolation, maybe, but it is also not going to be the lowest total of the tournament - the Netherlands were bundled out for 44 yesterday by Sri Lanka’s dangerous bowling attack. Mills hustles through another economical over.

This has been absolutely first-rate from England. This pitch hasn’t necessarily possessed excessive gremlins but they’ve allowed the West Indies little loose to get their arms through, and it’s been a dismantling so far.

Akeal Hosein is the new man, able with the bat but in far, far, far earlier than a grumpy Phil Simmons would have liked. The West Indies head coach has a face of thunder as the camera pans his way after Hosein drives a single to long-off.

Here is Adil Rashid and he says an immediate farewell to Andre Russell! The leg-spinner starts as he so often does with a ball pushed out of the front of the hand, Russell nervily prodding at it but leaving an inviting gap between bat and pad.

The white Kookaburra duly shimmies through to call timber and invite Russell to be the latest to take the heavily-trodden route back to the West Indies dressing room.
