329/5 at stumps. Shai Hope 147 n.o.

Hope goes first ball of the morning. Crucial period coming up now

And another! Hat trick ball coming up

The long anticipated Windies batting collapse in full throttle now. First two deliveries of Day 3, two wickets.

Hat trick averted

Moeen drops a dolly. Blackwood capable of punishing that. Could be crucial

Useful runs here. 371/7. Lead out to 113. Jermaine Blackwood is a really classy batsman.

Holder probably out batting him at the moment. Excellent response to the first couple of balls. Moeen drop already looking costly

Windies at Headingley always evokes memories of the late Malcom Marshall during the blackwash series of 1984.
