February 12, 2026

THE West Indies scored 196-6 largely thanks to Sherfane Rutherford's brutal unbeaten 76 and some late hitting from Jason Holder.

In reply England were all out for 166 in 19 overs.

England made a brisk start to their chase before Motie, who varies between left-arm orthodox and wrist spin, bamboozled Tom Banton (2), Jacob Bethell (33) and captain Harry Brook (17) in a brilliant spell of 3-33.

It pegged back England from a comfortable 85-2 in the eighth over to 131-5 in the 14th when Brook departed.
