ROOKIE spinner Shoaib Bashir may have taken five wickets to seal a crushing 241-run victory - but it was England's destructive batsmen who set the platform.
Yorkshire duo Joe Root (122) and Harry Brook (109) set things up beautifully as both scored centuries on the fourth morning to leave the Windies a huge target at Trent Bridge.
And the task proved well beyond them as they crashed to a series defeat with one Test still to go.
Bashir, 20, who went into this game without a Test wicket on home soil, added to his two first-innings victims with a sparkling display second time round.
Yet he was only afforded the platform because of England's batting onslaught, which saw them score more than 400 in both Test innings for the first time in history - and that after being put in on the first day.
