West Indies exploit proper home conditions to take emphatic 2-0 series lead
After a ten-run victory in Grenada, the West Indies took a 2-0 lead over England in their five-match T20 international series.Brandon King was at his most lethal for the hosts, hitting 82 not out off 52 deliveries, five of which went for six runs.
Captain Rovman Powell, who scored 50 before being wonderfully caught on the boundary by Harry Brook, ably aided him.The visitors found it difficult to chase down 176-6, with Phil Salt and Will Jacks both failing to find their rhythm against debutant Gudakesh Motie, who bowled 1-9 from four overs.
Brief scores: West Indies 176/7 in 20 overs (Brandon King 82*, Rovman Powell 50; Adil Rashid 2-11) beat England 166/7 in 20 overs (Sam Curran 50; Akeal Hosein 2-24) by 10 runs
