The hosts restrict the Caribbeans to 212 before crossing the finish line in the 34th over
After days of incessant rain, the Hampshire Bowl witnessed a bright and sunny Friday with England registering an eight-wicket win over the West Indies.
The host, which opted to bowl, restricted the formidable West Indies batting lineup to a below-par 212, thanks to three-wicket hauls by Jofra Archer and Mark Wood.
England comfortably chased down the total in just 33.1 overs, with Joe Root slamming his second century of this edition. The 28-yearold remained unbeaten on 100 off94 balls to emerge as the top-scorer (279).
The victory helped England climb to the second spot, but the day was marred by injuries to skipper Eoin Morgan (back spasm) and opener Jason Roy (hamstring).
